Where are idlers/conveyor belt rollers used?

Idlers are used in various areas in which conveyor belts are used. They are used in logistics and material handling, mining and the bulk goods industry, manufacturing and production, the food industry, recycling and waste management as well as the automotive industry. Idlers enable the efficient and reliable transportation of goods, materials, bulk goods 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 appropriate Carrying Roller/Conveyor Belt Roller?

By following the steps below, you can select the idlers that best suit your conveyor system and your requirements.

  1. Load requirements:
    Take into account the weight of the conveyor belt and the conveyed goods that must be supported by the carrying rollers. Determine the maximum load to ensure that the idlers are strong enough.
  2. Speed of the conveyor belt:
    The carrying rollers and idlers must be appropriately sized based on the conveyor belt's speed to ensure seamless operation.
  3. Angle of Inclination:
    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, certain 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:
    For choosing the right carrying rollers, it is helpful to seek expert advice. Contact us as manufacturer for assistance in selecting the right carrying rollers and idlers for your specific application.
