Elastic rollers

Tecymacan elastic rollers are built with a high-quality steel helical spring, with a much higher elastic and cushioning capacity than other types of roller.

They are especially suitable in the loading areas of conveyor belts, where they prevent belt cuts caused by impacts.

Types of Tecymacan elastic rollers

Simple elastic rollers

Tecymacan simple elastic rollers consist of a steel helical spring made as a single piece for the entire belt width.

  • Helical spring as a single piece for the entire belt width.
  • Machined turning heads and lifetime lubrication.
  • Labyrinth sealing system and double sealed RS bearings.
  • Quick-coupling shafts.

Impact-absorbing elastic rollers

Because they use a high-quality steel helical tension spring, the elastic and cushioning capacity of these rollers is much higher than that of any other type of roller.

  • Elastic and cushioning capacity much higher than other rollers.
  • Exceptional in the loading areas of the conveyor belt.
  • They prevent belt cuts caused by impacts.

Variable catenary elastic rollers

Thanks to their great elasticity, variable catenary elastic rollers make it possible to increase the carrying capacity of the belt by 20 to 30%, without spillage.

  • Increase in transport capacity of 20 to 30%, without spillage.
  • As the load increases, the catenary increases.
  • Perfect contact across the entire belt width.
  • Perfect alignment with the transported material.

Non-braking elastic rollers

The contact of the elastic rollers with the belt is always perfect, even when it runs empty, since the belt always pulls the roller across its entire width.

  • Perfect contact with the belt, also when running empty.
  • The belt pulls the roller across its entire width.

Self-cleaning elastic rollers

The constant variation in the position of the spring coils produces a continuous cleaning effect, both on the roller and on the belt, and prevents dirt from adhering to the roller.

  • Continuous cleaning effect on the roller and the belt.
  • Dirt does not stick to the roller.
  • Ideal for wet materials.

Low-consumption elastic rollers

Low-consumption elastic rollers turn very easily, so the power required to rotate them is minimal.

  • Only two turning points for each trough.
  • No possibility of friction with the intermediate frames.
  • Minimum power required for rotation.

Centering elastic rollers

Since some are made with a right-hand spiral and others with a left-hand spiral, centering elastic rollers make it possible to correct belt misalignment.

  • They are mounted with the spiral direction chosen according to the defect: right-hand spiral when the belt moves to the left and vice versa.
  • They are alternated in the conveyor belt assembly.
