Soco Systems - Driven 2 part roller conveyor

• Used for transporting various packaged goods and components within production lines.
• Commonly integrated into warehousing and distribution centres for order fulfilment.
• Suitable for moving items between different processing stages in manufacturing.
• Often employed in packaging lines for carton and box handling.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, units typically handle items weighing from a few kilograms up to 50-100 kg per metre.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type is a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz.

Roller type

Driven roller conveyors typically feature steel or PVC rollers, often with a zinc-plated finish for durability.

Drive mechanism

Units of this type commonly utilise chain-driven or O-belt driven rollers for positive item movement.

Speed range

Operating speeds are typically variable, ranging from 10 to 30 metres per minute, depending on application requirements.

• What types of products are suitable for a driven roller conveyor?

  Driven roller conveyors are best suited for items with a flat, rigid base, such as cartons, totes, pallets, and some types of packaged goods. Irregularly shaped or very small items may require different conveyor types.

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• What maintenance is typically required for a driven roller conveyor?

• Is this type of conveyor suitable for inclines or declines?

• How is a '2 part' roller conveyor different from a standard one?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
