Soco Systems - Non driven 2 part roller conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Used in warehousing and distribution centres for manual pallet handling.
• Commonly integrated into packing lines for temporary pallet staging.
• Suitable for connecting different zones in a production facility where manual transfer is required.
• Applied in goods-in/goods-out areas for preparing pallets for dispatch or receipt.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Typically designed to handle standard Euro pallets or similar, with a load capacity commonly ranging from 500kg to 1500kg per metre, depending on roller gauge and material.

Power supply

This equipment is non-driven, therefore it does not require an electrical power supply for its primary function.

Roller material

Commonly features steel or galvanised steel rollers, suitable for industrial environments and heavy loads.

Frame construction

Typically constructed from robust steel sections, often painted or galvanised for durability.

Configuration

As a 2-part system, it is designed for specific transfer points, allowing for modular integration into existing lines.

Maintenance requirements

Generally low maintenance, primarily requiring periodic inspection of rollers and bearings for wear, and ensuring clear pathways.
