T-SHAPED STRUCTURAL RAIL
A level rail is important. We place leveling screws on both sides of the rail. It is then precisely leveled and under filled with grout to form a concrete-like strong base. Each track joins together perfectly, like a model train. The rails are end drilled to accept a 3/8" steel pin. The result: Systems that move smoothly and silently. Our standard rail is 1 1/2" high and 2 1/2" wide.

DECK AND RAMP
A Jeter deck feels solid, like the floor underneath it. Decks are made of Douglas Fir, 5 ply tongue and groove, 3/4" plywood. Leveling screws are placed 16" apart, which makes our decks adjustable to most any floor condition. All edges are finished, and the deck arrives ready to receive the covering of your choice.

CENTER DRIVE, CROSS OVER CHAIN
We also use a cross over chain to connect the two drive shafts. This chain is a much heavier, Harley Davidson size chain. It transfers power to the drive line, which moves all wheels on one side of the carriage. By driving the system at the carriage center, we achieve perfect, uniform back and forth motion. All sprockets are welded securely to the 1" solid steel shafts. The shafts are supported by heavy-duty pillow block bearings, rated at 1,800 lbs each. We have installed over 10,000 systems. Our mobile systems are designed for long-lasting reliability.

WELDED CARRIAGE FRAME
Our strong, ladder-shaped carriage frame is designed to support a maximum weight load of 1,100 lbs per carriage foot. Our systems roll easily due to the precise squareness of the carriage. The frame parts are clamped to a unique fixture, then welded to a tolerance within thousandths of an inch. Each carriage is designed from 12-gauge, .110" thick 1008/1010 AISI steel.

RECESSED LIP SAFELY SECURES CABINETS
Jeter carriages provide recessed lips to contain shelving within the structure of the carriage. This secures the shelving, so that it cannot shift during carriage movement. Other manufacturers offer carriages where shelving "just sits" on top. With Jeter, you’ll receive a system that offers superior quality, safety and reliability.

SERVICE-FREE CHAIN DRIVE SYSTEM
All systems come with a unique, patented automatic chain tensioner. It adjusts and compensates for chain stretch. This chain tensioner is a key component to ensure your Jeter system will remain service-free –– for the life of the system.

CARRIAGES ROLL EFFORTLESSLY
Each Jeter mobile system is carefully designed. We analyze the weight that will be placed on the carriages and assign the proper gear ratio. Our systems roll on 5" drive wheels, and guidance is provided by flanged wheels at both ends of the system. All center position wheels are flat. Our systems move thousands of pounds with truly finger-tip effort. An average system moves 6,000 lbs with 1 lb of effort at the handle –– it’s easy.

VARIETY OF END PANEL COLORS
End panels are offered in a variety of colors. The quality appearance will compliment your office decor. And, the end panels close leaving a 3/4" gap so that fingers cannot get injured. We design our systems making safety first, always. SAFETY BRAKES Our reliable safety brake is activated by a knob above the handle. Safety brakes are installed on carriages 12" or longer and on all x-ray systems. It is optional on all other systems.


STATIONARY CARRIAGES BOLTED TO RAIL
Stationary units are an integral part of each Jeter mobile system. When a carriage abruptly hits a stationary unit, thousands of pounds of energy must be absorbed. Our stationary units are firmly bolted to the rail, which is secured to the floor. This guarantees the perfect positioning of rails at the time of installation.

QUALITY INSTALLATIONS ELIMINATE SERVICE CALLS
All systems are thoroughly reviewed at our factory prior to shipment. Each piece is marked for correct placement during installation. All hardware for assembly is provided, including carpet trim to have the system look perfect. And, installations are completed by experienced, factory-trained service technicians.
