Components of Carton Roller Conveyor

• Conveyor Rollers: Available in steel (for heavy loads), aluminum (lightweight), or plastic (for lightweight or corrosive environments). Roller diameters range from 1.5 to 2.5 inches (38-63 mm) for cartons, with larger diameters for heavier loads.
• Frame: Typically steel or aluminum, providing structural support. Frames are powder-coated or galvanized for durability.
• Bearings: Sealed or precision bearings ensure smooth roller rotation and low maintenance.
• Drive System (for Powered Conveyors): Includes motors, belts, chains, or line-shaft drives. Common drive types are 24V DC or 230/460V AC motors.
• Supports: Adjustable legs or stands to set conveyor height (typically 24-36 inches for ergonomic handling).
• Accessories: Side guides, end stops, diverters, and sensors for flow control and safety.
