Where are Carrying Rollers/Conveyor Belt Rollers used?

Carrying rollers are utilized in various sectors where conveyor belts are used. They find application in logistics and material handling, mining and bulk goods industries, manufacturing and production, the food sector, recycling and waste management as well as the automotive industry. Carrying rollers enable the efficient and reliable transportation of goods, materials, bulk freights and other products along the conveyor route. They play an important role in optimizing workflows and ensuring smooth operations in various industries.

How do I choose the right Carrying Roller/Conveyor Belt Roller?

By following the steps below, you can select the idlers that most effectively meet the needs of your conveyor system and its specific requirements.

  1. Load requirements:
    Take into account the weight of the conveyor belt and the conveyed goods that must be supported by the idlers. Determine the maximum load to ensure that the carrying rollers are strong enough.
  2. Speed of the conveyor belt:
    The carrying rollers must be appropriately sized based on the conveyor belt's operational speed to ensure seamless movement.
  3. Inclination angle:
    If the conveyor belt is inclined, the carrying rollers must be able to support the weight of the conveyor belt and the conveyed goods even under this condition. Check the specific requirements for the inclination of your conveyor belt.
  4. Environmental factors:
    Consider environmental factors such as temperature, humidity and chemical resistance. Depending on the environment, special materials or coatings may be required for the carrying rollers to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
  5. Specific application conditions:
    Consider the specific application conditions of your conveyor system. This may include, for example, special requirements for noise levels, abrasion resistance or the grip of the carrying rollers.
  6. Contact experts:
    To ensure the optimal selection of carrying rollers and idlers it is advisable to seek expert advice. Please contact us, the manufacturer, to receive support in selecting the right carrying rollers and idlers for your specific application.
