Return stop, pneumatially lowerable ASRP

Return stops prevent the workpiece carrier from bouncing back when stopping. The use of a backstop is always recommended when workpiece carriers are transported on a transfer system with low propulsive force. This is always the case, for example, with the accumulating roller chain as a conveying medium. The use of a return stop is highly recommended at high transport speeds. Because the backstop “locks” or positions the workpiece carrier, a cycle time reduction can also be achieved.
Pneumatically lowerable return stops are used instead of the normal return stops ASR where reverse transformation can occur. Therefore, the return stop must be lowered so that the workpiece carrier can pass the return stop from the reverse direction.
