Offset carrying idlers are rollers used in conveyor systems to support and guide the conveyor belt. They are called "offset" because they are installed at an angle to the direction of the conveyor belt travel, which helps to prevent the belt from shifting or slipping.
Offset carrying idlers are typically used in areas where the conveyor belt is subject to high loads or impact forces, such as where materials are being dropped onto the belt. They are designed to provide extra support and stability to the belt, helping to extend its lifespan and reduce maintenance costs.
In addition to providing support and stability, offset carrying idlers also help to reduce friction and wear on the conveyor belt. They are usually made from durable materials, such as steel or polyurethane, and come in a variety of sizes and configurations to meet the specific needs of different conveyor systems.
