Guide rollers

With the ever-increasing requirements in conveyor technology, especially material handling, the demands on the materials used in the conveyed goods to be transported are also increasing. With increasing speed, one of the most important elements in drive technology must function reliably: the bearing. Conveyor rollers are available in a wide variety of designs: driven conveyor rollers made of steel, stainless steel, aluminium or plastic. They are there to establish rolling contact between the conveyor frame and the conveyor belt.

In principle, conveyor rollers consist of a supporting axis enclosed by a supporting jacket, as well as deep groove ball bearings with flanges as end caps. Our conveyor rollers for roller conveyors can be used flexibly and can be equipped with different deep groove ball bearings depending on requirements. In addition to conveyor technology, xiros conveyor rollers with ball bearings are used in labelling technology, packaging and the food industry, where they can also take on the function of a guide roller.

What are the advantages of our conveyor rollers?

Icon: lubrication-free

Lubrication-free

The plastic ball bearings used are lubrication-free and require no further lubrication with grease. This means that the conveyor roller does not have to overcome the resistance of the lubricant and always runs smoothly. You achieve savings in three ways: with regard to maintenance, weight and price.
Polymer ball bearings direct from the manufacturer

Directly from the manufacturer

xiros plastic ball bearings are the result of our own efforts and work. You not only benefit from an immense variety directly from the manufacturer, for example compared to solutions as heavy steel, but also from years of experience from the industry's largest test laboratory for motion plastics.
Icon: FDA-compliant

Food-compatible

Some of our conveyor rollers can be used safely in the food and beverage industry. They are resistant to chemicals such as fatty acids or grease. This is certified by the European Commission with Regulation 10/2011/EU based on Regulation 1935/2004/EC.

▷ Seven tips for choosing the right conveyor roller
There are several factors to consider when selecting conveyor rollers. First of all, load-bearing capacity is a decisive criterion. The conveyor roller must be able to safely bear the weight of the transported goods without deforming, sustaining damage or causing downtime. The durability of the conveyor rollers is also of great importance. They should be made of materials with high wear resistance to ensure a long service life.

Rolling friction must also not be ignored. The conveyor rollers should have an optimum surface finish to ensure sufficient grip on the conveyor belt or the transported goods. This contributes to the stability and safety of the conveying process. Ease of installation and maintenance also play a role, as downtimes of the entire conveyor system are thus avoided.
