Compare Minimum Pressure Accumulation Models.

Both ACSI models use belt-driven live rollers and reduce pressure as products queue. Choose the duty class that fits the product and application.

Zero vs. Minimum PressureZero pressure: zones stop completely, no product contact. Best for fragile items. — Minimum pressure: zones slow with light controlled contact. More economical. Appropriate for sturdy cartons and cases.

Application Guidance

When Minimum Pressure Fits.

Minimum pressure accumulation is best evaluated by the conveyed product, acceptable contact, required queue length, operating rate, and conveyor geometry.

Model 138CAP — Light Duty

The 1-3/8″ roller platform is intended for lighter, consistently shaped cartons and cases that can tolerate controlled contact while accumulating.

Model 190CAP — Medium Duty

The 1.9″ roller platform provides a medium-duty option for sturdier cartons and cases requiring controlled accumulation on a belt-driven live roller conveyor.

Choose Minimum Pressure When

Products have stable bases, consistent shapes, and packaging that can accept light contact while queued. It can provide a straightforward, economical accumulation method.

Choose Zero Pressure When

Product separation matters, loads are fragile or variable, or downstream control requires independently released zones. Compare ACSI zero pressure accumulation conveyors.

FAQ

Minimum Pressure Accumulation Questions.

What is minimum pressure accumulation?

It reduces driving force as products queue, allowing controlled light contact rather than full conveyor line pressure.

What products are a good fit?

Sturdy, consistently shaped cartons and cases are typical candidates when their packaging can accept light contact.

How does it differ from ZPA?

Minimum pressure permits controlled contact. Zero pressure uses independently controlled zones to prevent pressure between adjacent products.

How do I choose 138CAP or 190CAP?

The 138CAP is light duty and the 190CAP is medium duty. Product size, weight, base, rate, queue length, and layout determine the final model.

Automated Conveyor Systems, Inc.

U.S. Conveyor Manufacturer.

ACSI manufactures minimum-pressure accumulation conveyors for light and medium-duty applications where controlled contact is acceptable and zero-pressure accumulation is not required.
