Introduzione
Roller conveyor tables are a critical part of modern industrial automation systems, used extensively across manufacturing, packaging, logistics, and warehousing. Their design flexibility and modular nature allow them to be tailored to a wide range of applications. In this article, we explore the common roller conveyor table dimensions that meet most industrial standards and how customization plays a role in production line optimization.
What Is a Roller Conveyor Table?
A roller conveyor table consists of a series of rollers fixed to a frame, allowing materials to move efficiently with minimal effort. Depending on the design, these tables can be either powered (motorized rollers) or gravity-driven.
- Gravity roller conveyors rely on slope and weight of materials
- Powered roller conveyors use motors to drive the rollers
- Utilizzato in assembly lines, pallet handling, warehousing and more
Importance of Dimensions in Conveyor Design
Choosing the right roller conveyor dimensions ensures compatibility, efficiency, and safety in your production or transfer system. Incorrect dimensions can lead to jams, material spillage, or excessive wear on equipment.
- Material compatibility: Must fit the load type and size
- Line speed and flow: Affects throughput
- Space efficiency: Must match the facility layout
Standard Roller Conveyor Table Dimensions
Below are some of the most common dimensions found in standard roller conveyor tables. These sizes are widely used in general manufacturing and packaging lines.
1. Width (Roller Width / Overall Width)
- 300 mm (12 inches) – For small items, cartons, or bins
- 450 mm (18 inches) – Standard for medium items
- 600 mm (24 inches) – Ideal for large boxes and pallets
- 900 mm (36 inches) or more – Used in heavy-duty applications
2. Length
- 1,000 mm (1 meter) – Compact stations or add-ons
- 2,000 mm to 3,000 mm – Common section lengths for assembly lines
- Multiple sections can be connected for long transfer lines
3. Roller Diameter
- 20 mm to 50 mm – For lightweight materials and high-speed systems
- 60 mm to 89 mm – General medium-duty applications
- 114 mm and above – Used for heavy-duty material and pallet movement
4. Roller Pitch (Distance Between Rollers)
- 50 mm (2 inches) – For small items to prevent product tipping
- 75 mm – 150 mm – Most standard configurations
- 200 mm+ – For large and heavy pallets
Factors That Affect Conveyor Dimensions
While standard sizes cover most applications, certain factors may require customization of dimensions.
1. Product Size and Shape
- Irregular or oversized products need wider conveyors
- Small parts require tighter roller pitch
2. Load Capacity
- Heavier loads require thicker rollers and frames
- Roller material (steel, PVC, rubber) must match load demands
3. Application Type
- Automated vs manual handling systems
- Indoor vs outdoor environments
4. Line Layout and Space Constraints
- Length and width must suit space availability
- Height and elevation changes may affect leg design
