Roller Conveyors

Overview:

• Roller conveyors are designed to transport, accumulate and distribute goods between different points within a warehouse. They can also be used to connect various logistics warehouses or production centers to a company’s own warehouses.
• Roller conveyors save time and improve repetitive load movement efficiency with pre-plotted circuits, through reduced manual handling of the goods.
• They may be powered by a motor, by gravity, or manually.

Application Area:

• Warehousing, manufacturing, package handling and distribution applications, loading docks, for baggage handling, or on assembly lines among many others.

Types & Features:

• Gravity Roller Conveyors:
  • The rollers are not powered and use gravity, if inclined, to move the product, or manually if mounted horizontally.
  • The conveyors can be straight or curved depending on the application and available floor space.
• Powered Roller Conveyors:
  • Powered Roller Conveyors use powered rollers mounted in frames to convey products. Key specifications include the drive type, roller diameter and material, and the axle centre dimension.
  • Various drive types include belts, chains/sprockets, and motorized rollers.

• Flexible Conveyor:
  • It makes skilful use of movement, expansion, and compaction so that floor space required can be reduced remarkably.

They can be combined with loading unloading belt/roller conveyor, for truck container warehouse loading unloading usage or multiple flexible conveyors can be connected and can be expanded optionally to any length required.
