Live Roller Belt
Gates Industrial Corporation Ltd. has launched Gates IntraLogix LRB-100, a live roller belt for conveyor systems used in warehouse and distribution center operations.
Live roller belts are used in highly automated conveyor solutions and drive the rollers that carry packages, cartons and other goods.
Gates LRB-100 replaces conventional fabric belt construction with a homogeneous polyurethane design that helps eliminate V-guide delamination.
Warehouse automation is a growing market for engineered belt solutions as e-commerce volumes rise, and operators invest in faster, more reliable fulfillment. Conveyors run at high speed and near-continuous duty in these applications, so a belt issue can slow down an entire operation. LRB-100 reflects Gates’ strategy of applying its materials science and engineering expertise to high-growth, automation-driven end markets.
