Wilmington, N.C., February 6, 2007 — Providing a failsafe method of securing RollerDrives in conveyor frames, the Interroll RollerDrive Anti-Spin Bracket prevents the RollerDrive from spinning in the frame and damaging it’s cable. The Anti-Spin Bracket also provides added security when used on both ends of the RollerDrive for its use in belted applications. “The single most prevalent cause of RollerDrive failure is rotation and movement within the conveyor frame.
This can lead to premature failure of the RollerDrive and can also damage the cable, the latter being the single, most prevalent field failure that we see,” said Ken Bobick, Global Product Manager for Interroll. “Interroll’s Anti-Spin Bracket locks the RollerDrive into place, is easy to install and eliminates this number one cause of field failure.”
