Roller Conveyor

Roller Conveyor Use

Roller Conveyor is a conveyor system whose job is to move material from one location to another. One type of roller conveyor that is commonly used in the production process is the gravity roller conveyor.

The way a roller conveyor works is by relying on a roller that has been installed on the conveyor frame, then the roller will rotate, and make the material on it move. Generally roller conveyors can be used manually or by relying on machines.

Roller Conveyor Components

1. Body Frame

This section is part of the Roller Conveyor which has a function as a support for all components of the roller conveyor so that its position does not change or move.

2. Support Pole

The support pole on the Roller Conveyor serves for the body or frame of the roller conveyor.

3. Drive Motor

Become one of the important components for a roller conveyor. The driving motor is a component of the drive roller that functions as a mover that can move or in this case rotate according to the speed set by the operator as needed.

4. Rollers

The roller is the main component of the roller conveyor which has the function of retaining and moving the goods being transported. The shape of the roller is designed in such a way that it does not create vibrations when walking so as not to damage the goods being transported. The roller itself consists of a pipe, a shaft, a snap ring, a beating housing, a seal, a c-ring and a bearing.

5. Transition System

The transmission system on this roller conveyor functions as a conversion of torque and speed (rotation) to vibrate the roller. The transmission system on the roller conveyor consists of two, namely the transmission of the driving motor with the drive roller and the transmission of the drive roller with the other roller.
