Stops
Wörner Stops are modular, compact, adaptable stopping and separating devices for automated material handling. Damped and undamped versions are used where pallet loads must be precisely stopped or separated or their direction controlled.
Stops
Total control of palletised loads in automated processes.
Wörner Stops are modular, compact, adaptable stopping and separating devices for automated material handling. Damped and undamped versions are used where pallet loads must be precisely stopped or separated or their direction controlled.
Suitable for both belt and roller conveyors. They can be simply fitted and adapted for either local or central control. Where damped, the effect adjusts automatically to compensate for varying loads. Easily retro-fitted to existing systems.
- Optimum damping regardless of actual load level
- Short cycle times due to higher point to point speeds
- Shock elimination protects delicate assemblies and sub-assemblies
- Adapts to varying speeds simplify automated handling
- Noise and shock reduction
Wörner damped stops use atmospheric air for damping and compressed air or electrics for indexing. They provide precise and shock free stopping and separation for pallet loads on all types of conveyor systems. Designed to protect palletised loads and the structure of the conveyor, from the repeated shock and vibration produced by dead stops. From 0.25kg up to 1500 kg force. Speeds up to 36 m/min.
Wörner undamped stops are applied to simple systems or where intermediate holding of work pieces is necessary on slow moving systems.

Pneumatic Damped Stops
Recommended for shock-sensitive, fragile parts. The adjustable damping mechanism gently decelerates the pallet, and ensures that the item reaches its final position smoothly, stably and without vibration. The force of impact is reduced by up to 95% in comparison to undamped stops.
Pneumatic Undamped Stops
The robust, low-cost basic stop option. These are best suited to applications where one or more multiple pallets must be placed in a defined position. Inductive and electronic proximity switches can be used to specifically identify the upper and lower positions for the stop to ensure high productivity with short cycle times.
Electric Damped Stops
These are recommended for shock-sensitive, fragile parts. The adjustable damping mechanism gently decelerates the pallet, and ensures that the item reaches its final position smoothly, stably and without vibration. The force of impact is reduced by up to 95% in comparison to undamped stops.
Electric Undamped Stops
The robust, low-cost basic stop option. These are best suited to applications where one or more multiple pallets must be placed in a defined position. Inductive and electronic proximity switches can be used to specifically identify the upper and lower positions for the stop to ensure high productivity with short cycle times.
Acceleration Units
Acceleration Units allow pallets to leave the process station quickly, expiditing the next process cycle and reducing cycles by up to 40%.
Displacement Stops
Integrated at a transverse section that connects more than two longitudinal sections. These stops are mounted between these two parallel sections and reliably take over the transport control at line crossings, and transfer pallets from a transverse to a longitudinal section.
Angle Dampers
Angle dampers are employed for a change of direction, typically for shock-sensitive or fragile parts. A continuously adjustable pneumatic damping mechanism gently stops the pallet arriving from the upstream (literal or traverse) direction and subsequently guides it in the required downstream (traverse or lateral) direction.
Index Cylinders
The index cylinders assure precise vertical lifting of pallets – making them ideal for rapid positioning. The work piece can be processed and assembled without being affected by vibrations. Electronic sensors can be integrated to identify the upper and lower positions of the stop.
Anti Bounce Stops
Backstops prevent the workpiece carrier from rebounding after the stopping process and hold it precisely in the desired position. However, they can also be used to block the material flow against the intended conveying direction, e.g. at manual workstations or lifts. Backstops with a lowerable latch enable reversing operation.
