Roller Conveyor System Design

Can be installed on an incline or in a straight line in a shipping or assembly.

Roller conveyor system design.

Gravity roller conveyor is a non powered solution that is an economical durable and safe option to move light to medium loads. The aim of this project is to redesign existing gravity roller conveyor system by designing the critical parts roller shaft bearing frame to minimize the overall weight of the assembly and to save considerable amount of material. Internal transport according to a modular design. Even the most basic factory machinery needs to be made somewhere.

2 1 gravity roller conveyor assembly. These unpowered gravity flow conveyors use a downward slope or a manual push to move loads down the line. Roller conveyors are optimized for transporting a wide variety of crates boxes polybags and pallets. Easy to install and relocate.

This equalizes the rate with which materials. These roller conveyors are created using lasers and band saws. Ball bearings for conveyor rollers replace worn and damaged bearings or press fit bearings into tubing or pipe to create a roller. Since the design of these conveyors is simplistic many advancements have been made to allow roller conveyors to keep up with industry trends.

The rollers provide a stable surface for moving loads with rimmed or uneven bottoms such as drums pails pallets skids. Roller conveyors consist of rollers that are mounted on a series of axles attached to rigid or telescoping frames. Conveyor systems are mechanical devices or assemblies that transport material with minimal effort. While there are many different kinds of conveyor systems they usually consist of a frame that supports either rollers wheels or a belt upon which materials move from one place to another.

Also known as pallet brakes these mount underneath rollers on a gravity conveyor and create friction on the rollers to control the conveyor s speed. The biggest innovation is the drive or live roller conveyor where each roller is connected to a motor via a belt chain shaft to increase controllability.
