Roller Conveyor Systems UK
Central Conveyors designs and manufactures roller conveyor systems for UK factories, warehouses and distribution centres. Choose gravity rollers for simple movement, powered rollers for controlled flow, or chain driven systems for heavier loads. We tailor each layout to the product, available space and required throughput.
Choose your roller conveyor
Gravity roller conveyors suit manual transfer and buffer lanes for cartons and totes with firm, flat bases. Product weight, base condition and gradient affect how easily a load moves; stops and access need to be planned.
Powered rollers control movement between packing stations, machines and despatch areas. 24V conveyor modules can form straight runs, bends and transfers. Where products must queue without touching, discuss zoned accumulation and sensing with our engineers.
Chain driven roller conveyors suit heavier loads. Pallet suitability depends on the underside, load distribution and transfer direction. We specify roller diameter, pitch, drive and controls for the application.
Roller conveyor or belt conveyor?
Rollers work best with a stable supporting base. Small parts, soft bags or irregular products may need the continuous support of a belt conveyor. Send a product sample or photograph so we can assess support, transfers and handling before finalising the design.
Planning a complete conveyor system
Start with the full product route: loading, inspection, packing, accumulation and discharge. We review working heights, operator access, bends, merges and interfaces with existing equipment. Our bespoke conveyor systems bring mechanical handling and controls together around your layout.
See a CCL roller conveyor project
Our automatic box-strapping conveyor project combines roller conveyors, optical sensors and PLC controls for a gaming chair manufacturer. It shows how handling can connect the stages of a packaging line.
Request a roller conveyor quotation
Tell us the smallest and largest product dimensions, maximum item weight, underside material, required items per minute and available space. Include working heights, accumulation needs, cleaning conditions and installation location. A layout or photographs help us assess the route.
Price and lead time depend on length, width, loading, drives, controls and site work. Send your conveyor brief to CCL for a tailored quotation, or call 01509 816064. Our Loughborough team provides design, manufacture, installation and ongoing conveyor support.
