Light Duty Belt Driven Live Roller Curve Spur Conveyor, Roach Model 138LRCS

A belt driven live roller conveyor or BDLR is a gravity roller conveyor powered by a belt. The friction created by the belt drive produces a low pressure method of accumulating product, which in turn allows for loads to be stopped or stalled on the conveyor surface while the belt continues to run.

Features

• Gravity Roller spurs transfer products from one conveying line to another
• They are ideally used where numerous lines must transfer onto a main conveyor line, from work stations or other similar operations
• Ideal for light duty applications

Applications

• Used in diverging or converging applications
• Merging loads of cartons, totes, fixtures and cardboard boxes
• Manufacturing
• Order Fulfillment
• Warehousing & Distribution
• Aerospace
• Government
• Military & Agency
• Automotive
• Parcel Handling
