A multi-roller guide is provided that includes a base plate with a cover plate secured thereto and a plurality of roller assemblies with rollers rotatably secured between the base plate and cover plate, the roller assemblies aligned along a roller assembly arc path, wherein the rollers are configured to rotatably engage with a tensile member.

A dynamic, reconfigurable, and modular cleaning device utilizes software, sensors, and modular components to provide a one-size-fits-all approach to cleaning conveyor belts. The cleaning device secures to a body or frame associated with a conveyor belt, in which an associated cleaning head cleans the conveyor belt's surface. The cleaning head has an arm that extends from its body and inserts into a corresponding opening on a connecting frame associated with the cleaning device. The cleaning head is then secured in place via a cylindrical pin that extends through aligned holes on the arm and the connecting plate. Insertion of the pin connects the components together, and removal of the pin enables a user to disconnect the cleaning head and swap a new one in its place, such as to provide a different cleaning action.

A device, mechanism, and methodology for regular and consistent cleaning of the vacuum aperture, nozzle, and contacting surfaces of a pick-and-place apparatus and the pick-up tools of automated or manual semiconductor device and die handling machines are disclosed. The cleaning material may include a cleaning pad layer with one or more intermediate layers that have predetermined characteristics, regular geometrical features, and/or an irregular surface morphology.

A control system, a method, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are provided for a control system of a transport system. A processor is configured to receive sensor data from a monitoring device attached to, or configured to simulate, a container that is typically moved, routed, or handled by the transport system. The processor receives a maintenance indicator identifying a malfunctioning component of the transport system. The processor obtains a predetermined normal range of the sensor data corresponding to expected operating conditions for each of one or more sensors of the monitoring device. The predetermined normal range corresponding to the expected operating conditions is modified based on the maintenance indicator and subsequent malfunctioning components are detected based on the modified normal range of the sensor data.
