Conveyors can be roughly divided into carton conveyors and pallet conveyors based on the materials they convey. Carton conveyors can be understood as conveying small and light products, while pallet conveyors are mainly used to convey large and heavy materials. These two types of conveyors also have many conveying forms. For example, carton conveyors can have roller conveyors, belt conveyors, modular mesh belt conveyors, etc., while pallet conveyors can have roller conveyors, chain conveyors, and chain plate conveyors. Each different conveying form has different requirements for selection. Today, we will take roller conveyors as an example to share with you how to determine the width of the conveyor.
Generally, the width of the roller conveyor is determined according to the width of the material, but the roller is divided into effective width and outer width. Here, users should pay attention to the fact that the effective inner width is the width that matches the material. Users need to add 5-10 cm to the width of the material to determine the final roller line width. Many users will wonder, won't the box get stuck if such a small margin is added? In fact, it is not easy to get stuck if the margin is small, and the carton may go crooked if the margin is large, and it is easy to get stuck if it is crooked. Generally, the conveyor made by YUPACK has a guide device when feeding, which ensures that the carton is fed from the center. Once entering the roller conveyor, the carton or pallet will move within the range limited by the roller line and will basically not go off the track. If there are indeed some positions that require very accurate entry, a centering shaping device can also be installed.
Thank you for your continued attention.
