Conveyor Roller Stand

What is a Conveyor Roller Stand?

The conveyor roller stand or conveyor belt roller stand are key components in conveyor belt systems, responsible for holding and adjusting the rollers of the conveyor belt. These assemblies, also known as Idlers, are manufactured in various designs for different applications in industrial machinery and mining industries.

Avangard, utilizing advanced technologies and extensive experience in manufacturing various conveyor belt roller stands, provides diverse services to various industries including miners and mineral processing units. In the design of roller stands, factors such as the type and granulation of materials on the conveyor belt, the capacity and dimensions of the conveyor belt, the diameter and length of the rollers, and environmental conditions are considered. These assemblies are designed in one, two, or three-piece configurations to match specific project needs.

The installation angle of the rollers can also affect the performance of the conveyor belt depending on the type of materials and transfer conditions. The correct selection of a roller stand plays an important role in increasing the efficiency and lifespan of conveyor systems.

Types of Roller Stands

Roller stands are divided into five main types based on their placement and the number of rollers installed on them:

Forward Roller Stand

The forward roller stand is one of the most used and widely consumed types of roller stands, used as a support for the forward rollers of the conveyor belt and conveyor. These stands play a crucial role in transporting and loading materials on the main path of the conveyor belt. The body of the forward roller stand is usually made of steel, and depending on the need, it is made from various sections such as channels, steel angles, or metal strips. These features ensure that the forward roller stand, besides having high strength, is capable of bearing heavy loads and tough working conditions.

Return Roller Stand

The return roller stand is a key component in the conveyor system that acts as a support for the return rollers. The main function of these stands is to support rollers that return the conveyor belt to the starting point after material consumption. These stands play a critical role in maintaining alignment and proper functioning of the conveyor belt. In Avangard, the return roller stand is made from high-quality and durable materials.

Self-Adjusting Roller Stand

The self-adjusting roller stand not only serves as a support for forward and return rollers but also has the capability to adjust the position of the rollers. This feature allows the rollers to automatically adjust to prevent deviation and wear of the conveyor belt. When material spillage and the weight of the conveyor belt cause it to deviate, the self-adjusting roller stands keep the conveyor belt centered, preventing deviation and stopping the movement. Additionally, these stands absorb vertical loads to some extent and provide the possibility of rotating 5 to 8 degrees to better withstand vertical and lateral forces.

Suspended Roller Stand

The suspended roller stand, with greater flexibility than other roller stands, adapts well to the type of conveyor belt movement. This type of stand performs better in lines that bear a lot of vertical load and in lines dealing with heavy and coarse materials. Suspended roller stands perform suitably in material spillage areas and critical sections that require load-bearing and can significantly increase the speed of the conveyor belt.

Standing Roller Stand

The standing roller stand is designed for light and normal lines where fine materials are transported. This type of stand has a diameter limitation at the connection point with the roller shafts and is usually only suitable for rollers with a 15-millimeter shaft.

Each of these types of roller stands plays a vital role in the proper and optimal functioning of conveyor belt systems, and their appropriate selection can help improve system efficiency and longevity.

Roller Stand Specifications

1- Pressure resistance: The roller stand must have the ability to withstand the weight and pressure of the roller to prevent damage and destruction.

2- Spiral movement capability: Some roller stands have a spiral system that enables easy adjustment of roller height.

3- Stability and strength: This component must have enough strength to keep the roller fixed and stable.

4- Resistance to environmental conditions: In some cases, roller stands must be resistant to environmental conditions such as moisture, corrosion, and temperature changes.

Buying Conveyor Roller Stand

The conveyor roller stand is among the key components in the roller system and plays a significant role in supporting the rollers, ensuring they are kept elevated off the ground.

These stands are typically made of metal and must be cylindrical and robust enough to withstand the weight and pressure of the rollers. For purchasing conveyor belt roller stands and receiving expert advice, contact Avangard experts.
