The roller is an important component of the belt conveyor.
The roller is an important component of the belt conveyor, with a wide variety and large quantity (Baoding Zhuoli Machinery Co., Ltd.). It accounts for 35% of the total cost of a belt conveyor and generates over 70% of the resistance, making the quality of the roller particularly important. The role of the roller is to support the weight of the conveyor belt and materials. The roller must operate flexibly and reliably. Reducing the friction between the conveyor belt and the roller plays a key role in the lifespan of the conveyor belt, which accounts for more than 25% of the total cost of the conveyor. Although the roller is a relatively small component in the belt conveyor and its structure is not complex, manufacturing high-quality rollers is not an easy task.
