The Duravant family of operating companies serve the food processing, packaging and material handling segments.
BestConnect MDR can be utilized to create systems for a variety of applications including package transfers, semi-automated sorts, and tying in manual packaging/workstations. These solutions can be quickly installed or reconfigured thanks to modular design, minimal components and hardware, and simple controls.
The brushless 24V DC motors found in BestConnect MDR are capable of more starts and stops and feature up to four times longer life than traditional brushed motors. Each modular section of BestConnect MDR is networked with the other sections, allowing greater control and accuracy throughout the system. They may also be added to customer networks for enhanced monitoring and controls.
