138LRC

Light Duty Belt Driven Live Roller Curve

The 138LRC is a light duty belt driven live roller curve conveyor engineered to maintain product orientation through turns using tapered rollers. Its design supports reversible operation and is commonly configured as a driven curve in light duty conveying systems where changes in direction are required.

Constructed on a formed steel frame with adjustable take-up and drive components positioned outside the curve, the model is suited for integration into system layouts with multiple curves or transitions. The tapered rollers and belt pressure sheaves ensure consistent roller engagement through moderate load curves typical of carton, tote, and unit load applications.

Applications

  • Accumulation and release of cartons and totes
  • Zero to low pressure product conveying
  • Product routing through curves, spurs, and merges
  • Zoned conveying with sensor and control logic
  • Unit handling in packaging and assembly lines
  • Transfer between processing, sorting, and palletizing areas

  • Distribution and fulfillment centers
  • Manufacturing and assembly operations
  • Packaging and labeling facilities
  • E-commerce order processing
  • Consumer goods handling
  • Controlled indoor industrial environments
