What advantages do buffer and support ring rollers offer in the bulk goods sector?

23.11.2022

Buffer and support ring rollers are essential in the bulk goods sector. Whether mining or transporting goods in industrial ports, this industrial product is required. Which role variant is required depends decisively on the desired purpose of use. Our FMG roller portfolio includes all buffer and support ring rollers that are required in the bulk goods area: various types of buffer ring rollers in the feed area and support ring rollers for the targeted return of the conveyor belt. The true specialty of our buffer and back-up ring rollers for bulk materials lies in the material we use, adapted to the desired usage environment.

We ensure that the buffer and support ring rollers you have purchased meet the specific requirements in the bulk goods sector. They offer proven protection against contamination and particles by using high-quality materials, cushion the falling energy of the material being conveyed and ensure that adhering materials trickle off. They can also be used in dirty environments for many years without any problems. Our FMG buffer and support ring rollers are already in use throughout Europe and provide reliable services in the bulk goods sector.

The labyrinth seals with felt elements in our conveyor roller systems are particularly suitable for bulk material transport due to their particle-repellent properties. In particular, they help to collect dirt from dusty environments and thus prevent wear and tear. Depending on the design requirements and conditions of your conveyor system, we are also happy to individualize it with 2RS bearings. The nature of the 2RS bearings with acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) increases the protection against contamination, but reduces the maximum speed load capacity.

The rollers in a system should be provided with components made of high-quality materials to ensure a long service life and low susceptibility to repairs. These include buffer rings made of rubber and support rings made of rubber or alternatively a non-wearing, but higher-quality polyurethane. Our selection of materials also ensures effortless and cost-saving operation of your conveyor system.
