Smart, Modular Material Handling Engineered for Systems Integrators
Motorized Driven Roller (MDR) technology is the modern standard for automated manufacturing, packaging, and distribution lines. By utilizing localized 24V DC powered rollers to drive isolated, on-demand zones, MDR systems deliver unmatched flexibility, safety, and energy efficiency.
At Integrity Fabricators, we design and manufacture heavy-duty MDR modules that excel where generic, thin-gauge catalog lines fail. We build our frames specifically to streamline mechanical and electrical integration, helping automation teams slash field-commissioning hours and deploy reliable, low-maintenance lines.
MDR lines require extensive wiring for power and communication. Our heavy-duty side frames feature integrated, pre-punched utility routing. Power buses and network cables stay tucked safely inside the structural frame profile, eliminating dangling wires and protecting critical network lines from external damage.
Whether your architecture relies on Pulse Roller (ConveyLinx), Interroll, Itoh Denki, or direct PLC control, our side frames include standardized, pre-punched mounting patterns. Pop your control cards and power supplies in instantly—no field drilling or self-tapping screws required.
Many catalog MDR systems flex and shift under continuous industrial cycles. We fabricate our frames from heavy-gauge structural steel. This rigid backbone maintains precise roller and sensor alignment over millions of cycles, protecting your product and your automation hardware.
Standard photocell and proximity sensor brackets can be integrated directly into the frame geometry, removing the guesswork from zone-boundary device placement.
The Integrity Advantage: Engineered for Faster Field Commissioning
A great layout print is only as good as its real-world deployment. We design our MDR frames with the field engineer in mind, addressing the common headaches of cable management, network card mounting, and structural rigidity.
Core Capabilities & Performance Benefits
Traditional conveyors rely on massive, centralized AC motors that run continuously, burning power even when lines are empty. Integrity MDR systems utilize intelligent zone control to activate rollers only when a product is approaching, cutting energy consumption by 50% to 70% and drastically reducing mechanical wear.
Safely buffer fragile, high-value, or varied-size products without collision. Individual zones communicate downstream via integrated logic cards, ensuring products stack up back-to-back without making physical contact or creating line pressure.
Operating on a touch-safe 24V DC platform, MDR systems eliminate dangerous drive chains, large sprockets, and high-voltage line hazards. The direct-drive roller design also eliminates the deafening hum of traditional line-shaft conveyors, creating a dramatically quieter, safer floor environment.
