Conveyors

Conveyor systems are vital components in modern industries and factories, streamlining the movement of goods and materials. Two common types of conveyors are belt conveyors and roller conveyors, each offering distinct advantages depending on the application.

Idler Roller Conveyors

Statpack Industries’ Idler Roller Conveyors deliver an energy-efficient, cost-effective solution to streamline material handling across packaging, manufacturing, and logistics operations, equipped with free-spinning, low-friction rollers on a rugged frame, these unpowered conveyor systems harness gravity or manual force to move lightweight to medium-weight goods smoothly. Whether sorting, assembling, or accumulating products, they dramatically cut manual labor, protect goods from wear, and eliminate operational bottlenecks.

Statpack’s idler roller conveyors for durability and low maintenance, equipping them with sealed bearings and customizable roller configurations to handle diverse package sizes and facility layouts. We build these versatile systems using heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant materials like galvanized steel, allowing you to seamlessly integrate them into existing packaging lines or use them as standalone transfer stations. By combining operational simplicity with high structural reliability, Statpack Industries delivers scalable conveyor solutions that keep your facility running at peak efficiency.

Features & Characteristics

  • Non-Powered Operation: Rely on gravity (decline) or manual pushing to transport goods, offering a cost-effective, energy-efficient solution.
  • Low Maintenance & Durable: Designed with sealed bearings to protect against dust, moisture, and contaminants, leading to a long service life and reduced repair frequency.
  • Customizable Structure: Idler rollers can be adjusted for pitch (minimum 25 mm) to fit the size of the product being transported.
  • High-Load Capacity: Engineered for heavy-duty applications, with many models designed for mining and bulk material transport.
  • Corrosion-Resistant Material: Available in steel (often galvanized) or HDPE to withstand harsh, wet, or abrasive environments.
  • Smooth Operation & Belt Protection: Reduce wear and tear on conveyor belts and products, ensuring consistent movement.

Applications & Usage

  • Material Transport: They enable smooth movement of products along a belt through gravity (sloped) or human power, often used in assembly, packaging, or sorting areas.
  • Belt Support (Idler Rollers): They support the weight and impact of loads on a conveyor belt, preventing sagging and excessive stretching of the belt.
  • Accumulation: Used to create temporary storage or accumulation zones on conveyor lines where items can stop without the need to shut down the entire system.
  • Troughing: Troughing idlers are specifically designed to shape the conveyor belt into a trough, minimizing material spillage for bulk materials.
  • Belt Alignment: Self-aligning idlers help keep the belt centered, ensuring smooth, continuous operation and preventing damage.
