The Belt Roller Conveyor Systems

Belt driven live roller conveyor systems are flexible, simple and versatile, ideal for conveying unit loads of various sizes and weights.
A Belt Driven Live Roller Conveyor (BDLR) is basically a gravity roller conveyor, powered by a belt. Friction created by the belt drive produces a low-pressure method of accumulating product, which in turn allows for loads to be stopped or stalled on the conveyor belt roller surface while the belt continues to run.
We specialize in designing and integrating custom roller conveyor solutions to meet your needs—and budget, options include plastic roller conveyor systems.
This page goes into the basic models of belt roller conveyors. Each belt conveyor type has a PDF for download. Additionally, it provides detailed information on various belt conveyor roller types, offering insights into their specific applications and benefits.
