What Are Roller Conveyors

What Are Roller Conveyors

Roller conveyor systems are made up of a series of mounted rollers that are either gravity powered or driven by belts or chains and keep your products moving at a consistent speed from one area to another. They can be upgraded with sensors and control systems and are a low-maintenance way to move your material.

They are available between diameters 0.75 inches to 8 inches. Our Idler Roller Conveyors are available between 4 inches (about100 mm) to 6 inches (about 150 mm) diameter.

Roller Conveyor Systems Available

These are reliable, efficient, and economical material movement solutions for all business sizes and settings. Available in straight, curved, and modular options, they significantly improve your day-to-day logistics.

Gravity Roller Conveyors

These conveyors use a slight incline and gravity to do most of the work without motors or complex parts. They’re a great option for staging areas, loading docks, and packing zones.

Powered Roller Conveyor Systems

Powered conveyors use motors with belts or chains to move products around at an automatic pace. They’re an ideal option for environments that need steady production without much manual intervention.

Accumulating Roller Conveyors

Accumulating roller conveyors allow your products to queue up in specific zones, so they’re always organized and flowing at the right speed.

Zoned Powered Roller Conveyor Systems

Zoned-powered conveyors split your line into independent zones with their own motors and sensors. They activate only when needed and can greatly reduce your machine’s wear and tear.

Curved Roller Conveyors

These roller conveyors allow you to change the direction of your product and maneuver around obstructions in your workspace. Move around bends with ease and avoid tipping or jams.
