Soco Systems - Non driven pallet roller conveyor

• Used for manual movement of palletised goods in warehousing and distribution centres.
• Suitable for connecting different work areas or stages in an assembly line where gravity or manual pushing is sufficient.
• Often integrated into packing and dispatch areas for temporary storage or sorting of completed orders.
• Utilised in receiving docks for initial offloading and staging of incoming materials.

Typical capacity

Typically designed to handle pallet weights ranging from 500 kg to 1500 kg, depending on roller strength and frame construction.

Roller material

Commonly features steel rollers, though galvanised or stainless steel options are available for specific environments.

Frame material

Typically constructed from painted mild steel, with galvanised options for enhanced corrosion resistance.

Roller pitch

The distance between rollers typically varies, influencing the minimum package size that can be conveyed stably.

Conveyor width

Commonly available in widths suitable for standard UK and Euro pallets, typically between 800mm and 1200mm.

Power supply

As a non-driven system, this equipment does not require an external power supply.

• What is the main advantage of a non-driven roller conveyor?

  The primary advantage is its simplicity and cost-effectiveness, requiring no electrical power or complex controls, making it ideal for gravity-fed or manual push applications.

• Can this conveyor be used on an incline?

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

• Is this suitable for all types of pallets?

• How do I determine the correct length and width for my application?

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.
