Installation & Operating Instruction Manual

P/A INDUSTRIES INC.

The Original Transporter.

The Transporter is a totally unique material handling device.
Protected under USA and foreign patents, these low profile,
beltless conveyors are pneumatically powered and have
become a cost effective alternative to conventional conveyors.
There are no belts or bearings to wear out or maintain.

The rhythmic vibrating or shaking motion moves parts or
scrap along a custom tray or chute designed to fit your tool or
application. Trays can be fabricated out of various materials
to suit any size opening and transport the pieces into the
parts bin or scrap container.

Contact our Sales Application Engineering Department for a
free video showing several different ways customers have
used the Transporter.

1. Rigidly Mount the Transporter to a solid surface using
these recommended bolts sizes:

Model Quantity Metric Inch
TP-3 4 M 8 5/16

TP-10 4 M 8 5/16
TP-40 2 M10 3/8
TP-70 6 M 8 5/16
TP-140 6 M 8 5/16

2. Air line requires use of an oil mist-type combination
Filter/Regulator/Lubricator, and Pressure Gauge. Set
pressure to 4-5 Bar (60 to 75 psi). Do not exceed 5.5 Bar
(80 psi) as excess pressure will damage the Transporter.

and Particles from Main Line

4. Connect the Air Line with flexible poly-flow tubing into
the threaded inlet. On Model TP-3 use 1/4” tubing for
1/8” NPT. Models TP-10, TP-40, TP-70 and TP-140 use
3/8” tubing for 1/4” NPT.

5. A custom “U” profile tray or chute
must be designed to handle each
specific application or tool. Any
material can be used, but we
recommend aluminum or any light
gauge material to reduce tray weight.
Maximum tray weight should not
exceed the following table data:

Max. Weight Max. Weight

TP-3 1,5 3.3 3 6.6
TP-10 3 6.6 10 20

TP-70 50 110 70 140

TP-140 100 200 140 300

Filter/Regulator/Lubricator

3. Fill the Lubricator with a good grade of hydraulic oil
such as Shell Tellus 32 or equivalent. Set the Lubricator
for one (1) drop per minute.

4

6. Fasten the tray or chute to the Transporter with metric
screws at all holes. Be sure to use spacers or washers
between the Transporter and the tray to reduce contact
friction between the moving tray and the Transporter
body. Refer to the following table.

TP-3 6 M6 8mm

TP-10 6 M6 8mm

TP-40 6 M8 9mm

TP-70 6 M8 8mm

TP-140 6 M8 8mm

7. The Conveyor tray or chute must be supported at
both ends to minimize vibration and deflection. A block of
Delrin GP-500 or Nylon, low friction material can be used
for the tray to slide. For optimum installation, use P/A
Roller Slides to rigidly control the tray movement and
provide trouble-free operation. See page 27.

8. The Speed Adjustment is preset at the factory with
the correct frequency for a light weight tray or chute.
The speed can be adjusted by turning the screw or knob
clockwise to decrease the movement on the Models
TP-3, TP-10, and TP-40. The TP-70 and TP-140 are
adjusted by turning the screw or knob counter-clockwise
to decrease the movement. Maximum speed is not
required to move parts or scrap efficiently.

9. If the TP-40 Speed Frequency is inadequate, release
the Air Regulator Rod T40-029 and gently push forward
to increase speed or backward to decrease.

10. The TP-10 may require a slight adjustment to
maintain proper speed frequency after a period of
operation. If Speed Adjustment Screw T10-405 does not
slow the unit sufficiently, it may be necessary to slightly
snug the two screws at the Air Regulator Valve T10-401.
This reduces the air being released from the valve and
decreases speed. Snugging the screws too tightly will
cause bending of the Air Regulator Rod and poor
performance.

11. Spray the same Tellus oil used in lubrication on the
pistons each week.

12. If there is a build-up of sticky oil on the conveyor tray
or if the parts or scrap are very oily, they may stick to the
surface and reduce movement. To reduce the coefficient
of friction, try dimpling the surface of the conveyor chute
with a ballpeen hammer or use a different material like
expanded metal or profiled, roll formed material.

7. Remove the Valve Disk T40-010 by unscrewing the
Valve Disc Screw. Hold a 3mm hex wrench at the
Valve Rod Washer T40-017 to prevent rotation. It is
now possible to take out the Piston T40-019.

8. To remove the Valve Rod and Disk Assembly T40-603
from the Piston, hold the exposed Valve Disc gently in
a vise. Use the 3mm Hex Wrench and remove the

Factory Repair & Rebuild Service

Return the Transporter by UPS Prepaid to our repair center.
After teardown and inspection, P/A Industries will notify you
of the recommended cost for spare parts and labor.

1. Remove the Spanner Nut T70-216 from the Rear
Piston T70-601 and push the Piston inside the Cylinder.

2. Remove the eight (8) holder screws with a T40 Torx
wrench. Loosen the eight (8) Set Screws T70-436.
There is no need to remove the set screws.

3. Pull the Front and Rear Holders away from the Body
while holding the Outer Guide Assemblies to prevent
the Bearings from being lost. The Front Piston
T70-602 and Shock Absorber T70-407 will come out
with the Front Holder. The Speed Adjustment
Assembly will come out with the Rear Holder.

4. Now remove the Front and Rear Retaining Plates.
The Rear Piston can now be removed from the Body.

5. Back out the Speed Adjustment Valve Locking
Screw T70-311 and remove the Speed Adjustment
Valve T70-604.

6. Unscrew Valve Seals T40-010 and pull the seals
out. Check all seals and O-rings for wear, make
sure valve seals are flat, and Valve Rod T70-603
is straight.

Reassembly

When reassembling, take care with the following:

1. Install Speed Adjustment Valve and align indent
for the Speed Adjustment Valve Locking Screw.

2. Remember to install the Front and Rear Cylinder
Urethane Washers T70-257 and T70-259.

3. Use the T70-436 Set Screws to adjust out any
play or looseness in the Slide Assembly before
tightening the Holder Screws.
