Roller Conveyor

A roller conveyor is a type of material handling equipment that uses cylindrical rollers mounted within a frame to move products efficiently across short or long distances. These systems may rely on gravity or be motor-powered to suit a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

Items travel smoothly along the rollers, making them ideal for transporting boxes, totes, pallets, or even irregularly shaped products. Depending on the system design, roller conveyors can include curves, merges, stops, and diverters to direct product flow through different areas of a facility.

Product Details

The fundamental parts of the rollers are:

The bearing axle. That goes inside the roller and is anchored to the structure.
The heads, which is where the bearings are located. Located at the ends of the shaft and allow anchoring and turning. It is also where traction is applied. It can be manufactured in different materials depending on their application; thus, for heavy structures, rollers with steel heads and steel sprockets or thermoplastic heads for light loads can be used. There are many options among these.
The cylinder or external structure of the roller, which will allow a large number of modifications adapted to each product or type of movement. It can be smooth or tapered.

From the basic structure described, it is possible to manufacture roller conveyors adapted to each type of function and classes of products, reaching a high degree of specialization. Thanks to all options for manufacturing, the roller conveyors can be used in many applications. Thus the rollers can be made of steel, aluminum, stainless steel, PVC, zinc plated and painted.
