Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors (CDLR)
Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors (CDLRs) are great for handling the heavy product with smooth bottom or on pallets. CDLR's are used for warehouse operations that handle steel sheet or structural shapes and using pallets or skids. This is a very versatile conveying unit for package handling, accumulation, and automobile tire handling systems. CDLR will handle large castings, forgings, parts with flat or smooth bottoms, and pallet transfer systems. Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors are also available with Motorized Rollers.
IKI chain driven live roller conveyors can be broken into two general categories, pallet handling conveyor or as heavy-duty unit load handling conveyor.
Standard Chain-Driven Live Roller Pallet Conveyors
Standard Chain-Driven pallet conveyors consist of 2-1/2 11 gauge pre-galvanized flow coated tube or 2-5/8 7 gauge plain steel tube rollers with spring-loaded 11/16" hex axles. Sprocket plug construction is standard for many roller centers, ensuring accurate sprocket spacing and trueness. Deficiencies in sprocket spacing or trueness is the largest factor contributing to roller failure on a chain-driven live roller conveyor. Our frames are punched on a CNC controlled punched ensuring roller centers and hole locations to +/- .002". These standard roller conveyors have pre-engineered accessories such as pallet stop, pushers, transfers, turning crosses, shuttles and centering devices.
Heavy Duty Chain Driver Live Rollers
Heavy duty unit load handing roller conveyor encompasses a large range of standard chain driven live roller conveyor. This includes a range of roller diameter from 3-1/2" .300" wall for 5,000-pound loads to 12" diameter with a 1" wall for 50,000-pound loads. This can be used in a wide variety of applications such as heavy engine/vehicle assembly and steel/metal processing and distribution. We offer many optional features as shock absorbing bearing mounts and accessories for impact loading sections and a variety of frame, support, and drive options.
