Conveyor Roller, some things you need to know

　　As a Conveyor Roller Manufacturer, we have some information to share with you. The rapid development of the logistics industry has made automation equipment appear in all walks of life. Among them, the roller conveyor is widely used due to its advantages of large continuous conveying capacity, high reliability, and convenient maintenance. The important member of the equipment, "Conveyor Roller", shoulders the important mission of delivering goods, its importance is self-evident, so let us talk about some of the elements and points of attention of the conveyor roller in use today.

Conveyor Roller

　　1. Anti-static requirements

　　During the transportation of the roller, static electricity is generated due to friction between the roller and the cargo. The harm of static electricity can be large or small. In some special applications, the roller must be required to be “anti-static”. For example, when the belt conveyor part, the roller is always rubbed against the belt. If static electricity is not processed, it may accumulate to a certain extent. Sparks;; as in the case of precision electronic components, static electricity may break through the components and cause damage. At present, our anti-static treatment is to guide the static electricity on the surface of the cylinder to the ground by placing copper balls inside. This method is cost-effective. Of course, we should also pay attention to the static electricity between the roller and the drive head and the belt. It is impossible to lead, and there will be no contact with the goods and no negative impact. Still, others are Rubber Coated rollers.

　　2. Selection of the upper roller on the conveyor

　　By the side machine, as the name suggests, it is to achieve the operation of the goods on the side of the rack to meet the operational needs of some special sections. The rollers at this time need to be arranged obliquely in the frame to achieve the function of the goods leaning on one side. There are three types of common rollers on the side machine:

　　a) Use an unpowered conveyor roller to drive as power through the bottom belt friction;

　　b) Select the conveyor roller. At this time, the angle problem of the roller arrangement needs special attention. The grooves of the adjacent rollers must be on the same straight line to avoid the wear of the O-belt;

　　c) Use the conveyor roller. At this time, the roller arrangement should pay special attention to the angle. The grooves on the adjacent multi-ribbed pulleys should be arranged on the same straight line, otherwise, the belt will easily come out of the groove.

　　3. Rollers on the split and merge lines

　　The split and the combined roller line and the roller are often designed with the same type and different roll faces (and gradient changes). However, due to the shortest length of the product, one or several rollers at the end may be too short to be produced. At this point, the power conveyor roller that cannot be made too short can be converted into an unpowered roller (with a shorter production length) or a non-roller replacement.

　　These are some of the problems you may encounter when designing the conveyor and selecting the rollers. I hope to help you. If you have further needs, please contact us: for consultation and understanding.
