Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors (CDLR)

Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors (CDLR) are robust powered conveyors, designed to offer high drive and friction to the products being handled. CDLRs use sprocketed rollers, and a roll to roll chain system provides positive driving power. These conveyors use welded construction, making them extremely durable. Plus, they can be configured to your needs, with a wide variety of options for frame dimensions, lengths, and rollers.

Unlike line-shaft driven rollers, which are designed for accumulation, Chain Driven Live Roller systems provide high friction and positive drive power to all rollers simultaneously, preventing power loss from slipping. They are primarily used in warehouse operations that handle heavy loads – such as steel sheets, structural materials, castings, and forgings – on pallets, skids, or other flat-bottomed parts, including pallet transfer systems.

What is a chain driven live roller conveyor?

A chain driven live roller conveyor (CDLR) is a type of powered conveyor system that uses chains to drive rollers, allowing it to move heavy loads like pallets and containers efficiently.

How does a chain driven live roller conveyor work?

CDLR conveyors use a motor to power chains that are connected to rollers. As the chain rotates, it turns the rollers, which then move products along the conveyor path.

What are chain driven live roller conveyors used for?

They are primarily used for transporting heavy loads such as pallets, drums, and large containers in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers.

What industries use chain driven live roller conveyors?

Industries include:

  • Warehousing and distribution
  • Manufacturing
  • Automotive
  • Food and beverage
  • Packaging and logistics
What types of products can CDLR conveyors handle?

CDLR conveyors are designed for heavy-duty applications and can handle:

  • Pallets
  • Drums
  • Crates
  • Large containers
  • Heavy boxes
What are the advantages of chain driven live roller conveyors?

Key advantages include:

  • High load capacity
