Fixed carrying troughing set with 3 rollers
This assembly is a rigid conveyor
support unit designed to carry the loaded section of a conveyor belt while forming it into a stable trough shape for bulk material handling. The unit incorporates three rollers: a centrally positioned horizontal roll and two side rolls set at an inclined angle to create the required troughing profile.
The trough angle is selected according to belt width, material density, and system capacity requirements, enabling increased material volume and improved containment during operation. The fixed-frame construction ensures consistent alignment and structural stability, making it suitable for continuous-duty conveying systems operating under steady load conditions.
Rollers are manufactured with high-quality steel shells and precision bearings, equipped with effective sealing systems to prevent contamination from dust and moisture. The support frame is fabricated from robust structural steel and treated with corrosion-resistant coatings to ensure durability in demanding industrial environments.
Key Design Elements
-
Trough Geometry: The 3-roll design creates a deep pocket that increases the
cross-sectional area of the belt, allowing for significantly higher load capacity
than flat belts.
-
Wing Rollers: The side rollers (wing rolls) are inclined at specific angles (20° to
45°) to contain material and prevent side-spillage.
-
Center Roller: A horizontal center roller carries the primary weight of the load,
ensuring stable tracking.
-
Frame Stability: A heavy-duty base frame maintains the precise alignment of all
three rollers, ensuring the belt profile remains consistent under heavy weight.
-
Nip Point Protection: Rollers are positioned with minimal gaps to prevent the belt from sagging into the frame or getting pinched between the rollers
By maintaining proper belt shape and support, the fixed carrying troughing set with
three rollers enhances conveying efficiency, reduces belt stress and wear, limits
spillage, and contributes to the long-term reliability of the conveyor installation.
