Part of the Roller Conveyor range, used in Warehouse and Distribution Centres.

Key Benefits

  • Economical and practical for indoor flat-bottomed product handling
  • Adjustable leg height to match existing line levels
  • Easy integration into existing conveyor systems
  • Multiple roller diameters and frame profiles to suit different load and space requirements
  • Standardized roller pitch options for consistent spacing and product support

Application Scenarios

  • Assembly lines where flat-bottomed components need to be moved between stations
  • Warehouse packing stations with flat pallets or boxes requiring smooth transfer
  • Production lines with limited space where adjustable height allows floor-level alignment
  • Material handling systems in cleanrooms or dry indoor environments
  • Conveyor lines that require simple, non-powered transfer without electrical integration

Who It Is For

  • Conveyor system integrators building low-cost gravity transfer sections
  • Industrial distributors stocking standard roller conveyors for quick delivery
  • Manufacturers setting up assembly or packaging lines with flat-bottomed products
  • Warehouse operators upgrading manual transfer points to gravity-assisted movement
  • Production line builders needing a reliable, non-powered transfer solution

Problems It Solves

  • High cost of powered conveyors for simple transfer tasks
  • Difficulty aligning conveyor height with existing workstations
  • Lack of standardization in roller spacing leading to product instability
  • Inflexible designs that cannot adapt to different floor levels or line configurations
  • Need for quick, low-maintenance transfer without electrical or drive components

Technical Features

  • Available in three roller diameters: ∅38 mm, ∅50 mm, ∅60 mm
  • Frame profiles: 60*30*3 mm and 90*30*3 mm for structural support
  • Adjustable leg height from 300 mm to 1000 mm to match line levels
  • Roller pitch options: 50, 75, 100 mm (CWD1) and 75, 100, 150 mm (CWD2, CWD3)
  • Inside width options: 300 mm to 900 mm in 100 mm increments
  • Conveying capacity up to 120 kg per meter at B=400 mm and P=100 mm

Materials

  • Carbon steel rollers for general industrial use
  • SUS304 stainless steel rollers for clean or corrosive environments
  • Steel frame profiles for structural rigidity and load support

Quality Control

  • Roller diameter verified against specified size
  • Frame profile dimensions checked for correct width and thickness
  • Roller pitch measured to ensure consistent spacing
  • Adjustable leg height tested for smooth movement and stability
  • Conveying capacity validated against the stated load per meter

Customization Options

  • Roller diameter selected from ∅38 mm, ∅50 mm, ∅60 mm
  • Frame profile selected from 60*30*3 mm or 90*30*3 mm
  • Inside width chosen from 300 mm to 900 mm in 100 mm steps
  • Roller pitch selected based on model and load requirements
  • Material choice between carbon steel and SUS304 for rollers

Use Guide

  • Select roller diameter based on load weight and required stability
  • Choose frame profile based on required strength and space constraints
  • Set inside width to match the product width for stable transfer
  • Use roller pitch to ensure full product support without gaps
  • Adjust leg height to align with adjacent conveyor lines or workstations
