What Is Chain Drive Roller?
Rollers for chain drive conveyors
Chain-driven roller conveyor systems consist of a series of rollers, fitted with sprockets, supported by a structure driven by a chain connected to the motor. The precise joint between the rollers and the driving element is essential to ensure an efficient and accurate rotation: the chain locks into the sprockets making a high-friction contact which transfers the power to rollers and turns on the system.
Two main transmission systems can power up the rotary movement of chain-driven roller conveyors. In conveyors driven by chain loops, transmission passes from roller to roller. Alternatively, with better efficiency, fewer costs, and design constraints than the other one, rollers can be driven by a tangential chain that moves straight and provides a continuous power transmission.
Type of chain rollers: miniature/medium/heavy duty

| High-strength PA sprockets are used for higher rotational force and lower noise |
| 1151/1152 | ||||
| Steel sprocket, suitable for heavy-duty transportation; matching plastic bearing seat can reduce noise and have a good appearance |
| 1161/1162 | ||||
| Steel sprockets, steel steel-bearing seats, can bear a heavy load, and all steel structures, can be used in various temperature environments. |

| The sprocket and roller wall are conveyed by fixed friction, without accumulation capacity |
| 1221/1222 | ||||
| The sprocket and the cylinder wall are driven by friction (adjustable) and have a certain accumulation capacity. |

With the popularity of automation, we require more and more automated transportation from one side to the other side, sprocket roller conveyors are the most popular type, especially in transporting some heavy workpieces. A sprocket roller conveyor is safer and more reliable when the workpiece is heavy. The chain-driven roller conveyor design is also the most common type used by users. Tap to read more
