Motorized Conveyor Roller Built-in DC Brushless Gear Motor

A motorized conveyor roller, sometimes referred to as a powered roller, is a cylindrical conveyor element that houses an integrated drive system, typically a DC or brushless motor. Unlike traditional rollers, which require an external motor and chain drive system, motorized rollers are compact units where the power source is built into the roller body itself—enabling space-saving designs and efficient power transmission.

Product Highlight

Motorized conveyor rollers with built-in DC brushless gear motors are designed for light to medium duty load handling, offering adjustable speed control, energy efficiency and intelligent automation compatibility. Designed to support different drive elements, such as multi-wedge belts, v-groove pulleys, or direct drive configurations, for increased system flexibility and reliability.
