Rolcon manufactures micro conveyor rollers for facilities with limited space, high efficiency requirements and delicate products.
Our micro rollers are compatible with many of the most popular conveyor systems on the market, so you can rest assured knowing your investment will fit your facility’s requirements.
About Our Micro Rollers
All our rollers are made to each order’s specifications to ensure high quality and adherence to customer requirements.
Tube Diameters
The diameter of your micro roller tube directly impacts your conveyor system’s total load capacity. Generally, thicker rollers can withstand heavier loads.
Tube size is also critical for high production efficiency. Larger tube sizes typically boost efficiency due to their higher load capacity and greater surface area, though smaller tubes may be more suitable depending on your facility.
Our standard diameters include:
- 3/4″
- 7/8″
- 1″
We can also accommodate unique requirements by designing rollers of other sizes and shapes. Ask a representative for more information on our process for custom designs.
Roller Features
We have designed our products to be compatible with a wide range of conveyors and other machine parts. Our standard micro roller conveyor features include:
- Axle shape: Although round 1/4″ axles come standard in our micro rollers, we can also produce hexagonal or round axles with a 5/16″ diameter to meet different efficiency and operational requirements.
- Tube materials: We use 13-gauge, 16-gauge and 20-gauge stainless steel for our standard micro rollers, but we can accommodate other materials if needed.
- Spring loaded: Rolcon rollers are spring loaded on each end for smooth, hassle-free insertion into your conveyor system.
- Roller coverings: We can apply custom coatings to enhance corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance and nonstick properties.
Custom Roller Design Options
Our rollers are highly configurable, so we can customize them to suit a wide variety of needs for companies across many different industries.
If your facility requires rollers that do not fall into our standard designs, our team can work with you to develop a custom micro roller. Contact us for more information on how this process works. We can answer any of your questions and concerns about our designs, so you can ensure your purchase is ideal for your facility.
