The initial outlay for a roller, as well as the whole idler frame can be quite substantial. However, you should consider the entire service life of this important componentry in line with your operating system outlay.
Each time a roller or idler system needs to be serviced or replaced, this cost can potentially be substantial, as the conveyor system needs to be completely isolated and shut down. A new roller might need to be purchased and the old one disposed of or recommissioned. In this instance, we recommend purchasing a quality and reliable product that will last for a longer period of time in order to receive better longer term value and possibly have a roller in reserve to minimise down time.
All State Conveyors are able to help reduce the total roller cost by working with your site operation synergies and processes. We are able to assess your operating site conditions so that our rollers are not over or under engineered, ensuring that we maximise your running efficiencies and minimise power consumption.
