Heavy Duty Belt on Roller Conveyor

Overview

Heavy Duty Belt on Roller Conveyors are designed for the reliable transportation of unitized loads, loads with inconsistent bottom surfaces, and supersacks. By combining a continuous belt supported by closely spaced rollers, this conveyor provides stable load support while maintaining the strength and durability required for demanding industrial applications.



This conveyor style is commonly applied where traditional roller conveyors are not suitable due to uneven load bottoms or where belt conveyors alone require additional structural support. The belt-on-roller design aligns with CEMA unit-handling principles for heavy-duty conveying.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why use a belt on roller conveyor instead of a standard belt conveyor?

    The roller-supported belt provides additional structural support for heavy or uneven loads while maintaining smooth belt conveying.

  • What roller spacing should be selected?

    Closer roller centers are typically used for heavier loads or loads with inconsistent bottoms, while wider spacing may be used for uniform loads.

  • Can this conveyor handle supersacks?

    Yes. The belt-on-roller design is well-suited for supersacks when properly engineered for load and belt selection.

  • Are multiple drive configurations available?

    Yes. End-drive and center-drive configurations are available to match layout and load requirements.

  • Can the conveyor be customized?

    Yes. Widths, roller spacing, drives, and options are configured during system engineering to meet application needs.
