Types Of Belt Conveyor Roller Groups

There are many types of belt conveyor roller groups, each of which has its specific application scenarios and functions. The following are several common types of roller groups and their characteristics:

‌Ordinary rollers‌: This is the most common type of roller on the belt conveyor, suitable for occasions with small amounts of conveyed materials and slow speeds. Ordinary rollers have a simple structure, are easy to install, and have a long service life.

‌Heavy-duty rollers‌: Suitable for occasions with large amounts of conveyed materials and fast speeds. The roller tube wall thickness of heavy-duty rollers is large, with strong bearing capacity, long service life, and good impact resistance.

‌Dustproof rollers‌: Specially used to prevent material flying and reduce dust pollution. Dustproof rollers are equipped with sealing rings between the roller tube and the roller shell, which can effectively prevent material flying and external dust from entering.

‌Self-cleaning rollers‌: Can automatically clean the material on the roller surface, suitable for occasions that need to be kept clean. Self-cleaning rollers are equipped with scrapers between the roller tube and the roller shell, which can automatically clean the surface material.

Gravity roller: does not require electric drive, and uses the gravity of the material itself to drive the belt to run. It is suitable for occasions where the amount of material conveyed is small and the speed is slow. It has the advantages of simple structure, long service life and low maintenance cost.

Buffer roller: can reduce the impact force of the material and protect the belt and roller. The buffer roller is equipped with a buffer pad between the roller tube and the roller shell, which can effectively reduce the impact of the material on the roller.
