Classification and Characteristics of Rollers
2025-04-09
Classification by Application
Troughing idlers: Used in the carrying section to support the conveyor belt in a trough shape, increasing the material carrying area and preventing spillage.
Parallel idlers: Used in the return section or for conveying piece goods, providing stable support.
Impact idlers: Installed below the receiving point, absorbing impact force through rubber rings or elastic materials.
Self-aligning idlers: Including conical self-aligning idlers and spiral self-aligning idlers, automatically adjusting the conveyor belt position to prevent deviation.
Return idlers: Support the unloaded conveyor belt return, reducing friction.
Classification by Material
Steel idlers: Such as carbon steel idlers and stainless steel idlers, high strength, suitable for heavy loads or corrosive environments.
Plastic idlers: Such as polymer idlers and nylon idlers, light weight, corrosion resistant, suitable for light loads or special working conditions.
Ceramic idlers: Wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant, suitable for high-wear environments.
Composite idlers: Such as carbon fiber composite idlers, combining the advantages of multiple materials to improve overall performance.
