There’s no such thing as a perpetual motion machine: Bearings will inevitably need replaced, and gears eventually break down, regardless of the grease and maintenance they receive. When such things happen, other parts in your machines can suffer too. Modern advances in moving part technology have made it easier for designers and engineers to implement durable, safer and longer lasting parts into their plans.
Our custom polyurethane rollers are a great option when it comes to conveyors, presses and other machines that require many moving and easily replaceable parts. Polyurethane is a natural solution for when you need a material that is naturally durable, cost effective and has built-in friction grip capabilities to make it versatile and dependable.
Today it is more cost effective than ever for you to order custom sized polyurethane rollers, which is may be extremely important when you need a variety of specific sized rollers in your machines.
Another facet of the versatility of polyurethane rollers is their wide range of uses, due to multiple levels of softness available (Polydrive offers 55A & 70A).
Softer polyurethane rollers have applications that can’t be satisfied by metal rollers, such as heavily friction-dependent conveyor systems. Extra soft rollers are useful for keeping delicate equipment from being damaged, and the collateral damage from a failing polyurethane lower is considerably lower than damage from a metal alternative.
Polyurethane rollers are perfect for a company that needs a solution more durable than plastic and more cost-effective than steel or aluminum. They are also ideal for package conveyor systems, and custom-made polyurethane rollers make it extremely easy to account for logistics solutions involving tight corners and steep grades.
