Any successful material handling business knows that roller conveyors are integral to moving products. A Plus Warehouse, a leading national material handling dealer, knows this too, and carries roller conveyors of all sizes, from the very small yet popular 3/4 in roller mini roller conveyor to the King of Roller Conveyors with an amazing 3.5 inch roller diameter.
"Our roller conveyors encompass a wide variety of sizes to accommodate the wide variety of sizes of packages in the material handling industry," said Ed Stairman, president of A Plus Warehouse. "When determining what size roller conveyor you need, it's integral to consider what you will be using it for."
Roller Conveyors are sold in various roller centers, which is the measure from the center of one roller to the center of the next. This is a very important figure as having too large of a roller center can allow boxes to submarine. Flexible packages require four rollers under the package whereas a rigid package only requires three. Divide the box length by three for a rigid box or four for a flexible package, and the whole number portion is the required roller center - order that amount or a smaller roller center.
"If you ever need help figuring out what size roller conveyors you need, not only do we have a great internet shopping cart system, but we also have trained salespeople ready to answer any questions you may have," said Stairman.
