Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyor

Conveyor Case Studies

Chain driven live roller conveyor has rollers with sprockets attached on one side and concealed in a chain guard. The drive system consists of a drive and sprockets and chain(s). The positive drive achieved from sprockets and chains allows for conveyance of heavier product. There is not much that cannot be conveyed with chain driven live roller conveyor as long as the product has a roller conveyable surface. A single 1.9” diameter roller with a 7/16” hex axle has a capacity up to 1,500 lbs, depending upon its length. While a single 5” diameter roller with a 1 11/16” hex axle has a capacity up to 25,000 lbs, depending upon its length. All product must have no less than 3 rollers under the product at all times to properly convey. The construction of the chain driven live roller conveyor is driven by the product being conveyed (size, shape, weight, conveying surface) and the desired objective (transport, accumulation, staging, sorting, assembly, picking, kitting, etc.).
