Components
Multitrough
Idlers
Multitrough Idlers incorporate adjustable wing rollers which may be set at increments, from 20° to 60°, enabling the belt to run at either conventional or deep troughing angles.
The rollers can be easily adjusted & the angle can be varied adjacent to the head & tail drums, to ensure smooth transition from trough to flat conditions without undue belt stress.
All dimensions comply to BS 2890.

Unitrough &
Intertrough Idlers
The Unitrough Range offers a choice of two transome types to meet specific customer requirements:
- A Tubular construction, where self cleaning is a priority
- A Folded construction, where cost is a determining factor
Unitrough Idlers have end supported wing rollers & comply with ISO & BS recommendations.
On such trough sets all rollers are interchangeable. Non-lead idler sets can be supplied on reversing conveyors.

Selection of the correct drum & shaft is essential to both the satisfactory operation of a conveyor & for belt life.
Please remember that our technical assistance is always available to you without charge.
Drums are fabricated from steel shells with closed steel end plates, incorporating welded bosses.
All welding is continuous for maximum strength.

Universal Conveyors manufacture various accessories to accompany both the Multitrough & Unitrough range of idlers including return idler brackets, centre roller retaining clips (Multitrough range only) & side guide rollers with threaded spindles, suitable for locating on to existing structures.
We also manufacture a range of conveyor covers & windboards to enclose the carrying strand of the belt. These are available as either fixed or hinged type for easy access.
Impact bar modules can also be manufactured to absorb & cushion the impact load on the conveyor to give superior belt support, good wear resistance & a longer service life.

An alternative to standard conveying systems, Field Conveyors are an immediate conveying solution for the most rugged of environments.
Designed for rapid & easy installation in a fraction of the time it would take to install a conventional conveyor of similar size.
The conveyor sets are available with a fixed troughing angle of 30°,35° or with variable spring loaded troughing angles.
The sets are interchangeable with other variable trough structures of similar design
