Knife edge rollers keeping packaging lines running
In its latest ‘video of the week’, Igus iglidur knife edge rollers take centre stage. The rollers help keep the packaging industry moving smoothly and efficiently. Available in various sizes and materials as standard, there is a iglidur knife edge roller suited for a variety of applications.
Knife edge rollers are small rollers which form a continuous gliding edge on conveyor belts. It enables product to glide smoothly between belts. Unsurprisingly they are commonly found on the edge of conveyors, providing a lubrication-free and precise guide system.
Igus has developed a range of knife edge rollers in its iglidur materials. These rollers offer a tight deflection radius and require a very low amount of drive power. They are easily assembled and are extremely cost effective. And if Igus can’t offer you a standard roller to meet your requirements, the company can custom machine one.
