Description

ROLLERS FOR CHAIN DRIVEN CONVEYORS For chain driven roller conveyor systems we mean a series of rollers supported by a structure, suitable for unit handling, driven by chain. The chain driven roller conveyor systems are used for the controlled handling of a great variety of loads, with regular or irregular shapes, with heavy or light unit weights, rugged or fragile, either horizontally or with a light slope. They are used to synchronize automatic transport systems, as slave systems for assembly stations and operating machines, with continuous, step-by-step or accumulating advancing, and for all those applications where idle roller gravity conveying systems are not recommended.
ROLLERS FOR CURVES

Curves can be with tapered rollers or cylindrical.
The drive is transmitted with chain loops and the gear motor is typically in a central position.
The driven tapered rollers permit the design of flat curves with reduced dimensions, guaranteeing the regular load movement. For the straight section it is recommended to maintain the same “EL” width of the curves, compatible with the standard length of taper rollers.
The tapered rollers with belt transmission are introduced in the section “Rollers for belt driven conveyors”.
