Conveyor Belts and Material Handling
Conveyor Ball Rollers
Elements that have exposed balls on top, also known as ball conveyors. Facilitate the sliding of workpieces or box, direct workpieces in a production line and can function as an independent method of transporting materials.
APPLICATIONS
Conveyor ball rollers are used in a wide variety of industrial applications:
- Conveyor belts: Ball rollers are used on conveyor belts to facilitate the efficient movement of products and materials along a production line, warehouse or distribution area. These rollers help reduce friction and allow for smooth and consistent movement.
- Package and goods handling: In distribution centers and warehouses, ball rollers are used to move packages, boxes and goods efficiently. This speeds up loading and unloading processes, as well as product sorting and distribution.
- Automotive industry: Ball rollers are used in automotive manufacturing to move parts and components along assembly lines. Help optimize production and ensure that parts move smoothly and accurately.
- Industrial processing: In general industrial applications, ball rollers are used for conveying bulk materials, packaged products and various components through different stages of the production process.
