Used Roller Conveyors in Alabama, USA

Overview

Roller conveyors are a simple, robust system for moving pallets, boxes, and individual items in factories or warehouses. They come as gravity or powered lines, with options for fixed, modular, or heavy-duty industrial designs. Buyers select based on width, roller diameter, load capacity, conveyor speed, and drive type to match throughput, floor layout, and material handling needs.

FAQ

What should I inspect when buying a used roller conveyor?

Check frame straightness, roller condition (flat spots, dents), bearings, sprockets and chains, motor/gearbox function, controls, and welds. Verify load capacity, roller spacing, and make a test run if possible.

How do I pick the right size and capacity?

Match conveyor width and roller spacing to your pallet or product dimensions. Confirm weight per linear foot and total load capacity, plus required speed (ft/min or m/min) to meet your throughput.

What are common shipping considerations?

Plan for length and weight: conveyors may need sectional shipping, crating, or container loading. Confirm lifting points, whether rollers must be removed, and whether a forklift or crane is needed at pickup and delivery.

What routine maintenance is required?

Regularly clean debris, lubricate bearings and chains per manufacturer guidance, inspect rollers for wear, check alignment and belt/chain tension, and test motors and controls for unusual noise or heat.

Are spare parts easy to source?

Common parts like bearings, rollers, motors, sprockets, and chains are widely available, but check model numbers and roller shaft sizes. Consider stocking spare rollers and bearings for quicker repairs.
