The foundation of HaloDrive System is the modular omnidirectional “pods” that are not restricted by the traditional axle and four-corner positioning common in most drive systems. The HaloDrive pods operate independently, which enables:
• Unlimited maneuverability: Independent HaloDrive pods can begin movement in any direction, with any orientation, to transport the largest loads through the tightest paths, enabling optimal use of space in any facility.

(Caster Concepts: Albion, MI) — Conceptual Innovations, a leader in the world of industrial material-handling solutions, has received patent approval for the company’s innovative HaloDrive Omnidirectional Drive System. This new technology provides a complete solution for precise yet unrestricted movement in the largest, heaviest, and most complex component-handling applications.
However, someone has to pay for this content. And that’s where advertising comes in. Most people consider ads a nuisance, but they do serve a useful function besides allowing media companies to stay afloat. They keep you aware of new products and services relevant to your industry. All ads in Quality Digest apply directly to products and services that most of our readers need. You won’t see automobile or health supplement ads.
“We see tremendous potential for this new technology in industries where large, often sensitive, parts are being transported in an assembly operation or final assembly, such as in aerospace and defense,” says Doug Backinger, vice president of sales at Conceptual Innovations.

• Extreme accuracy: The pods easily and accurately position large loads with extreme precision (+/- 5 mm), accelerating assembly processes, increasing quality, improving safety, and reducing risk of damage to the load and facilities.
Multiple pods can be integrated to ensure safe transport of unique loads with typical applications running from 5,000–50,000 lb. For larger loads, transporters can be operated in tandem to distribute the load.
• Unparalleled power management: Patented technology enables the dual motors on HaloDrive pods to efficiently allocate power from each motor as needed, rather than having each motor dedicated to a specific function. This provides a significant increase in torque and power from a compact battery package.
• Improved productivity: A single operator can precisely move a load weighing up to 100 tons using wired or wireless controls, enabling increased capacity per load while reducing the number of laborers needed to transport.
Our PROMISE: Quality Digest only displays static ads that never overlay or cover up content. They never get in your way. They are there for you to read, or not.
