Roller Conveyors are generally used when the material is to be transferred at a long distance. Roller conveyors are of two types. One is powered and other is gravity. In case of powered roller conveyors, a prime mover like a motor is used to drive the system. And in case of gravity roller conveyors, no power source is required. Material is transferred with the help of gravity.

Features and Benefits:
• Higher speed and efficiency
• Seldom occurrence of backup
• Little power requirement
• Side-loading is easy on the route
• Allows accumulation of products
• Zero Pressure accumulation

Application:
• Used where palletizer or sorter is used, as roller conveyors allow accumulation
• Energy saving when gravity type of roller conveyors are used
