Roller Conveyor Standards

Roller conveyors are extremely popular type of conveyor, with different kinds of configurations, each with separate standards that establish recommended engineering, manufacturing, and application practices, as well as uniform nomenclature and dimensional standards. CEMA standards for roller conveyors address belt-driven, chain-driven, and lineshaft-driven live roller conveyors, as well as the non-powered varieties too.
