Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Conveyor Idler market size was valued at US$ 1826 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 3156 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 4.6% during review period.

Conveyor idlers are critical components in a conveyor system, designed to support and guide the conveyor belt while ensuring smooth and efficient material transport. They are used in various industries, including mining, construction, agriculture, and logistics, to carry materials over long distances.

Types of Conveyor Idlers:

Impact Idlers

Purpose: These are used at the loading points where heavy materials are dropped onto the conveyor belt. They absorb the impact from the falling material, protecting the belt and reducing damage to the system.

Application: Used in mines, ports, and warehouses for bulk material handling.

Carrying Idlers

Purpose: Carrying idlers support the weight of the conveyor belt and materials as they move along the conveyor. They are positioned along the conveyor’s length and are typically spaced at regular intervals.

Application: General-purpose conveyors in various industries.

Return Idlers

Purpose: Return idlers guide the empty conveyor belt as it returns after material transport. They ensure that the belt remains in proper alignment and moves smoothly.

Application: Found along the return side of most conveyor systems.

Training Idlers

Purpose: These idlers help to align the conveyor belt, preventing it from drifting or misaligning. They ensure proper tracking of the belt.

Application: Used when a belt is prone to misalignment or during system startup.

Trough Idlers

Purpose: Trough idlers are used to create a “V”-shaped trough for the conveyor belt, which helps to contain the material and prevent spillage.
