Part of the Roller Conveyor range, used in Warehouse and Distribution Centres.
Key Benefits
- Chain-driven operation with single sprocket per roller for consistent drive force
- Adjustable leg height allows alignment on uneven floors
- Fixed frame size with 3.2 mm thickness provides stable support
- Roller pitch options of 50, 75, 100, or 150 mm for matching product spacing
- Conveying capacity of up to 100 kg per meter at speeds up to 25 m/min
- Motor power options of 0.2, 0.4, or 0.75 kW for different load and speed needs
Application Scenarios
- Indoor assembly lines where flat-bottomed parts need to be moved between stations
- Warehouse packing stations with consistent product spacing and moderate load
- Production lines requiring a simple, reliable drive system with minimal maintenance
- Integration into existing conveyor systems where a single sprocket drive is already in use
- Lines with limited space where a compact, fixed-frame conveyor is preferred
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building indoor material handling lines
- Industrial equipment builders needing a cost-effective drive solution
- Assembly line designers requiring adjustable height and consistent roller pitch
- Logistics automation contractors installing conveyors in controlled indoor environments
- Manufacturers integrating conveyors into production cells with flat-bottomed components
Problems It Solves
- Inconsistent drive force in conveyors with multiple sprockets per roller
- Difficulty aligning conveyors on uneven floors due to fixed leg height
- Need for a simple, low-cost drive system that integrates easily into existing lines
- Lack of standardization in roller pitch and frame size across different models
- Inability to match motor power to load and speed requirements without over-engineering
Technical Features
- Single sprocket per roller ensures uniform drive force across the conveyor
- Adjustable leg height allows for floor leveling without frame modification
- Fixed frame size of 120 mm height, 30 mm width, and 3.2 mm thickness for structural consistency
- Roller pitch available in 50, 75, 100, or 150 mm to match product spacing
- Chain drive with RS40AX10 sprocket model used across all variants
- Maximum conveyor length of 12 meters per section for modular design
- Conveyor width is roller width plus 90 mm for consistent end support
Materials
- Steel frame and rollers for general industrial use
- Chain and sprocket set made of carbon steel for durability
- Roller tubes and shafts constructed from steel for load-bearing performance
Quality Control
- Roller pitch verified against the specified 50, 75, 100, or 150 mm values
- Frame dimensions checked for 120 mm height, 30 mm width, and 3.2 mm thickness
- Sprocket and chain alignment tested for smooth drive operation
- Motor mounting points inspected for compatibility with 0.2, 0.4, or 0.75 kW motors
- Conveyor length confirmed not to exceed 12 meters per section
Customization Options
- Roller diameter and width selected from available model variants
- Roller pitch chosen from 50, 75, 100, or 150 mm to match product spacing
- Motor power selected from 0.2, 0.4, or 0.75 kW based on load and speed requirements
- Conveyor width adjusted by adding 90 mm to the roller width
- Leg height adjusted to suit floor conditions without altering frame structure
Use Guide
- Select roller diameter and width based on product size and load distribution
- Choose roller pitch to match the spacing of the items being conveyed
- Confirm motor power matches the required speed and load capacity of 100 kg/m
- Adjust leg height to ensure the conveyor is level on the installation floor
- Ensure the conveyor width is roller width plus 90 mm for proper end support

Manufacturing Process
Step 1
Roller tube and shaft fabrication to specified diameter and thickness
Step 2
Assembly of roller with shaft and sprocket onto the frame
Step 3
Frame welding and finishing to ensure structural integrity
Step 4
Chain drive system installation with sprocket alignment
Step 5
Final inspection of roller pitch, frame alignment, and motor mounting
Compared With Other Options
| Multi-sprocket roller conveyors | Single sprocket design reduces drive complexity and maintenance, but may limit load capacity on long sections |
|---|---|
| Belt conveyors | Roller conveyors handle flat-bottomed loads better and are more durable under heavy impact, but are less flexible for curved paths |
| Chain-driven conveyors with multiple sprockets | Single sprocket reduces drive imbalance and simplifies alignment, but may require more frequent chain tensioning |
