Gravity
Roller Conveyor Bends

The Gravity Roller Conveyor Bend is ideal
for applications that require an economical, non-powered means
for conveying material around a corner.
Automation Supplies offer a
broad range of light, medium and heavy duty roller
conveyor bend models to accommodate any
application.
You have access to a
wide variety of conveyor roller diameters and rollers in
materials such as steel, BZP steel, plastic and
stainless.
A variety of frame and finish options are also available for
your conveyor bend in steel, stainless steel and aluminium.
Stand systems are also available for all the roller conveyor
bends and other modules offered by Automation
Supplies.
The basic design of the gravity roller conveyor bend can be
adjusted around your requirements, but it's always useful to
try to stay within the standards of manufacture, in particular
the roller diameters, radii of the bend, roller type and
roller lengths (Or conveyor width, depending on how you look at
it). Basically, there are standard parameters for the
rollers and if you can live with them, then that's always going
to be better than having rollers specially made for your
application.
At the same time, there are also standard roller lengths and
roller designs. The length is a slightly less complicated
issue to change, but if you can keep to the standards that's
going to be best.
As with all gravity roller conveyor systems,
the roller conveyor bends can be specified with high or
low sides so that the sides can be used to guide the product.
In addition you can specify high side rails as shown right.
Some roller conveyor bends will come with rollers that are
parallel along the length. Others, depending on the function
and the product being conveyed will have conical rollers.
Conical rollers will assist the product to take the bend
better, but are more expensive than parallel rollers. In the
end it's down to the application. We can help you choose the
right options for your roller conveyor bend.
