Herringbone Roller Conveyor

The Herringbone Roller Conveyor features parallel sets of skewed rollers arranged in a distinctive pattern—left-hand skewing on one side and right-hand skewing on the other. This unique configuration creates a self-cantering effect, gently guiding products toward the conveyor's centreline as they move along. This cantering function ensures seamless entry into downstream conveyor sections, maintaining proper alignment for subsequent operations whi...

Drive Mechanism

The conveyor operates using a flat synthetic belt powered by an AC geared motor, with friction between the belt and rollers converting linear belt movement into smooth roller rotation. To accommodate the opposing roller angles, two separate belts are employed—one for each side. Both belts can be driven by a common motor through connected drive shafts or powered independently for precise control. Pressure rollers positioned below each belt apply controlled tension, ensuring optimal friction, reliable operation, and consistent product cantering along the conveyor’s length.

Control & Automation

Integrated Control System

  • Control and automation are managed through Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), PLC systems, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI), and advanced sensors.

VFD-Based Drive Control

  • VFDs regulate motor speed, ensuring smooth acceleration and energy efficiency.

PLC Operation Management

  • PLCs manage start/stop sequencing, speed control, and system monitoring.

HMI Interface (Optional)

  • Optional HMI panels provide real-time control and diagnostics.

Sensor-Based Automation & Safety

  • Photoelectric and proximity sensors enable zone control and jam prevention, while emergency stop switches, pull-cords, guards, and alarms ensure operator safety.
