Roller lines and rollers are essential and important components of conveyor equipment

from GCS Manufacturer

The roller conveyor  line is one of the main conveying accessories in the conveying equipment, it is a cylinder-shaped composition that drives the conveyor belt or changes its conveying direction in an automatic way. Most of them are used for the transportation of goods whose bottom is flat, mainly composed of a drive roller, frame, support, drive part, and other parts. It has the characteristics of large conveying capacity, fast speed, light operation, and can realize multi-variety common line shunt conveying. Power roller conveying line has a simple structure, high reliability, are easy to use and maintain, and can withstand large impact load. Widely used in all walks of life cost packaging transportation, as well as turnover transportation.

Principle of operation

Driven roller conveyors are commonly used in horizontal or slightly upward-sloping conveyor lines. A drive unit transmits power to the rollers, causing them to rotate and convey the goods through the friction between the roller surface and the surface of the goods being conveyed.

Driven roller conveyor mainly consists of two end-point rollers and a closed conveyor belt tightly attached to them. The roller that drives the conveyor belt to rotate is called the driving roller (transmission roller); the other roller that only changes the direction of the conveyor belt movement is called the redirecting roller. The drive roller is driven by an electric motor through a reducer, and the conveyor belt is dragged by the friction between the drive roller and the conveyor belt. The drive roller is generally installed at the discharge end to increase the traction force, which is favorable for dragging. Materials are fed from the feeding end, falling on the rotating conveyor belt, relying on the conveyor belt friction to drive the delivery bag unloading end unloading.

The principle of a single-chain roller conveyor is that the roller is driven by a loop chain, which runs in a special guide rail, featuring easy installation and low noise. The single-chain roller is driven by a big loop, the double-chain roller is driven by a small loop, and other driving methods are used for light-conveying occasions. Suitable for all kinds of boxes, bags, pallets, and other objects, bulk materials, small items, or irregular items need to be placed on the pallet or in the turnover box conveyor.

Drive roller line parameters

Transmission methods are single (double) sprockets, single and double (O) belts, single (double) synchronous belt pulleys, and belt drives.

Matching sprockets are P=12.7mm;Z=14; P=15.875mm;Z=14.

Roller diameter is 50.8, 60, 75, 89(mm);

Turning roller conveyor turning radius is 900mm, 1200mm;

1、Material of roller: galvanized, aluminized, stainless steel, PVC material, etc.

2, roller form: double sprocket cone roller; o-type groove roller, ordinary cone roller.

3、Drum length: generally 500~1200mm; can be customized according to user requirements.

4、Wire body support: stainless steel, aluminum profile, carbon steel spraying, and so on.

5、Conveying speed: generally 10~30M/min; according to the user's demand can be used frequency conversion speed control continuous operation.

6、Non-standard power roller line is customized according to specific requirements.

Driver Roller Conveyor Equipment

According to the driving method, there are individual driving and group driving. In the former, each roller is equipped with a separate driving device to facilitate disassembly. The latter is a number of rollers as a group, driven by a drive device to reduce the cost of equipment. Group drive transmission mode has a gear drive, chain drive, and belt drive. Power roller conveyor is generally driven by an AC motor, according to the need can also be driven by a two-speed motor and hydraulic motor.

Power roller conveyors can also be divided into linear power roller conveyors, turning power roller conveyors, power roller conveyors, free power roller conveyors, heavy-duty power roller conveyors, rubber-covered power roller conveyors;

Standard turning inner radius of turning roller line: 300, 600, 900, 1200mm, etc. or customized;

Diameter of roller used for straight section roller: 38, 50, 60, 76, 89mm, etc. or customized;

Layout form: horizontal conveying, inclined conveying, and turning to convey;

Structure form: the driving form is divided into powered, motorized roller, etc.;

Frame material: carbon steel spraying, stainless steel, aluminum profile;

Power mode: gear motor drive, drum motor drive, and other forms;

Transmission mode: single sprocket, double sprocket, O-type belt, plane friction transmission belt, synchronous belt, and so on;

Power roller conveyor speed regulation mode: frequency conversion speed regulation, step-less speed change, etc.;

 

Roller classification

According to the form of power is divided into no power roller and power roller

Non-powered roller: The cylindrical component that drives the conveyor belt or changes its running direction manually is one kind of roller, which is the main accessory of the conveying equipment.
