GPI overhead monorail system Omega

Modular electric monorail system for light goods up to 800 kg

GPI overhead monorail system Omega

The GPI overhead monorail system Omega combines contactless energy transmission, intelligent vehicle technology and genuine prefabricated modules to create a compact and flexible conveyor system.

It is particularly recommended for the automated transport of light goods in production and assembly: as compact conveyor technology for just-in-time delivery to the assembly line, for the visualisation and control of material flows with intelligent vehicles and wherever limited space and frequent production changeovers require a flexible, convertible solution. The transport of versatile goods is also possible without any problems.

Special features

  • Real prefabricated modules - Curved, track and carriage modules are delivered ready to plug in and assembled without waste

  • Drastically reduced construction times - Installation times of just a few weeks thanks to pre-installed system components

  • Repeated conversion possible at any time - Plug-in modules without the need for re-installation, ideal for agile production environments

  • Contactless energy transfer - Inductive power and data transmission for low-maintenance continuous operation

  • Intelligent vehicle technology - Carriages navigate automatically and control points independently

  • No shear points on hangers - safe operation in the worker area

  • Compact design with discreet ceiling suspension creates valuable production space

  • Quiet and clean in operation - for the highest ergonomic demands

GPI added value

The utility value of an Omega system is only revealed by a well-thought-out track layout, efficient interfaces for material infeed and outfeed and a system configuration tailored to the transport task. GPI supports your project from the first hour of planning through to complete commissioning - including the supporting structure, structural and plant steelwork and service during operation. Competent customers who wish to make their own customisations are fully supported by the intuitive plug-in system.
