The Motor Roller is a motorised pulley ideal for small belt conveyors. It is a space saving device eliminating the need for external motors, gears, sprockets, bearings and bed plates. It also saves money as assembly time and handling costs are much reduced.
The Motor Roller has all moving components enclosed within the pulley. They operate within an oil bath ensuring the constant lubrication of the gear system and cooling of the electric motor. Typical use is in a belt conveyor at supermarket checkouts or on other small belt conveyors.
All our Motor Rollers are equipped with a resettable internal thermal overload fuse that will disconnect power if motor windings reach excessive temperatures. This feature is an excellent safeguard against motor failure. Motors are reversible and have a duty-cycle of 30 starts/stops per minute.
