Powerised Roller Conveyor

Powerized (Powered) Roller Conveyor

Introduction

Powerized Roller Conveyors are motor-driven roller systems designed for precise, efficient transportation of goods in automated and heavy-duty applications. Unlike gravity-based variants, these conveyors utilize electric motors—either integrated into each roller or linked via belts/chains— to provide controlled movement, enabling seamless integration into modern logistics and manufacturing workflows.
