Troughing Idler Sets

• Troughing Idler Sets

  KDHI troughing idler sets combine rollers and a supporting frame to form the carrying belt into a trough profile. The arrangement supports the loaded belt and helps contain bulk material along the conveying route.

  

Roller and Frame Arrangement

The centre and inclined side rollers work together to establish the belt profile. The trough angle, roller dimensions and frame configuration should match the belt and conveyor design.

Application and Selection

Selection considers belt width, conveying capacity, belt speed, material properties and idler spacing. The loading zone and the transition between flat and troughed belt sections require separate review to suit the local belt support conditions.

Installation and Inspection

Check frame alignment, roller seating, mounting security and free rotation. Uneven support, worn rollers or misaligned frames should be investigated when belt tracking or local wear changes.
