POBCO
manufactures a wide variety of ROLLERS.
POBCO rollers are used extensively on conveyors and other equipment in standard
and custom designs. Our rollers are designed and engineered to provide superior
service in the complex field of material handling.
The life of a roller
is extended by utilizing the largest possible diameter with the shortest
possible length to minimize roller deflection. Important dimensional factors
governing roller specifications must be taken into consideration, such as the
maximum load and speeds to be encountered.
The following summary of
POBCO roller components, materials and bearings will assist in designing
rollers to meet your engineering requirements.

POBCO ROLL END
BEARINGS
The bearing is the heart
of any roller assembly. POBCO non-metallic bearings often surpass the average
life expected of commercial ball bearings, especially in corrosive, abrasive
and wet environments.
For drive conveyor systems POBCO offers a variety
of self-lubricating roll end bearing materials.
For GRAVITY CONVEYOR SYSTEMS
POBCO offers plastic BALL
BEARINGS incorporating the use of precision stainless steel balls.
This bearing was developed realizing momentum of the conveyor system must be
maintained depending upon the weight of the product being motivated. However,
in many gravity conveyor applications our direct-journal-contact
self-lubricating bearings (as used on drive conveyor systems) provide
sufficient roller momentum. |
