Should I choose gravity or motorized roller conveyor?

It depends on whether you need controlled flow or self-flowing transport. Gravity roller conveyors (GRC) use no electricity — product moves by gravity on inclined sections or manual push on horizontal runs. They are the simplest, most cost-effective solution for moving cartons, boxes, drums, and pallets, with minimal maintenance. Motorized roller conveyors (MRC) use single- or double-chain drives to power the rollers, giving you controlled speed and direction — essential for assembly lines, accumulation zones, and any process where product flow must be regulated. SANAM engineers help you choose during the technical consultation.

What roller materials does SANAM offer?

SANAM builds roller conveyors with three roller material options: plastic for light loads and quiet operation, mild steel for general industrial duty, and stainless steel SS 304 for food-grade, pharmaceutical, and washdown environments. The choice depends on your product weight, operating environment, and any hygiene or corrosion-resistance requirements. Frame material is matched to the roller selection — steel for industrial, stainless steel for hygienic applications.

Can SANAM build curved roller conveyors?

Yes. SANAM builds curved roller conveyor sections at 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90° angles in both gravity and motorized configurations. Curved sections use tapered rollers (rollers with varying surface speed) so product maintains orientation through the turn without drift. Curves can be combined with straight sections to fit your factory layout — receiving area to packing line to shipping dock in one continuous flow.

What industries does SANAM build roller conveyors for?

SANAM builds roller conveyors for warehousing and distribution centers, manufacturing and assembly lines, pallet and drum handling operations, food and beverage packaging lines, logistics and order-fulfillment facilities, and general industrial transport. Roller material, frame construction, and gravity-or-motorized configuration are matched to your operating environment and product type — light plastic rollers for cartons, steel rollers for drums, stainless steel for food-contact applications.

How long does it take from order to installation?

A custom-engineered roller conveyor typically ships within weeks of order confirmation, not months. Because SANAM manufactures in Egypt, you avoid the multi-month lead times associated with imported conveyor systems. The conveyor is pre-assembled and tested in our 10th of Ramadan facility before shipping — minimizing site installation time. The same SANAM team that builds the conveyor handles installation and ongoing support.

Material Handling Conveyor

Roller
Conveyor

The backbone of warehousing, assembly, and logistics — built in two power modes: gravity roller (GRC) for zero-power, manual-flow transport of cartons, drums, and pallets, and motorized roller (MRC) with single- or double-chain drive for controlled, automated flow. Rollers in plastic, steel, or stainless steel with straight runs or curved sections at 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°.

Key Features

What Makes a SANAM
Roller Conveyor
Different

Six things that set a SANAM-built roller conveyor apart from a generic catalogue conveyor — every one of them a decision we make at the engineering desk before fabrication begins.

Two Power Modes — Gravity + Motorized

Gravity rollers (GRC) move product by gravity or manual push — no power, no maintenance, simplest solution. Motorized rollers (MRC) use single- or double-chain drives for controlled speed and direction — for assembly lines, accumulation zones, and any flow-control process. Combine both in one continuous system.

Roller Materials — Plastic, Steel, SS 304

Plastic rollers for light loads and quiet operation. Mild steel rollers for general industrial duty. Stainless steel SS 304 rollers for food-grade, pharmaceutical, and washdown environments. SANAM picks the roller material to match your product weight, operating environment, and hygiene requirements.

Curved Sections — 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°

Build curved roller sections at any of four standard angles, in both gravity and motorized configurations. Tapered rollers maintain product orientation through the turn — no drift, no rotation, no jams. Curves combine with straight runs for any layout — receiving to packing to shipping in one flow.

Steel or Stainless Steel Frame

Powder-coated mild steel frames for industrial, warehousing, and assembly applications. Stainless steel SS 304 frames for food processing, pharmaceutical, and washdown environments. Frame material matches the roller selection — consistent corrosion resistance across the whole conveyor.

Custom Width and Roller Spacing

Roller width and centers sized to your product — close spacing for small cartons and bags, wide spacing for pallets and drums. Lengths configured to your factory layout, not a catalogue size chart. The conveyor fits your floor plan instead of forcing you to fit a standard.

Pre-Assembled and Tested

Every roller conveyor is fully assembled and run-tested in our 10th of Ramadan facility before it ships — checking roller rotation, motor performance (for MRC), frame alignment, and curved-section tracking. Site installation becomes connection and commissioning, not building from a kit.

Power Configurations

Two Power Modes — Gravity or Motorized

Roller conveyors come in two distinct power configurations — choose one, or combine both in a single continuous system when different zones of your operation need different flow control.

Gravity Roller Conveyor (GRC)

Zero-power transport — product moves by gravity on inclined sections or manual push on horizontal runs. The simplest, most cost-effective conveyor solution. No motors, no electricity, no maintenance routines. Straight or curved sections at 30°, 45°, 60°, or 90°. Ideal for warehousing, packaging discharge zones, shipping docks, and any application where powered flow control isn't needed.

Motorized Roller Conveyor (MRC)

Powered transport with controlled speed and direction — single-chain or double-chain drive between roller shafts, giving you precise flow control. Essential for assembly lines, accumulation zones, sortation systems, and any process needing regulated throughput. Straight or curved at 30°, 45°, 60°, or 90°. Combine with gravity sections in one system when different zones need different flow.

Industries Served

Where the Roller Conveyor Earns Its Place

Six industries where the roller conveyor is the right tool for the job — from warehousing flow to assembly line accumulation.

Warehousing & Distribution

Receiving docks, picking lanes, packing stations, and shipping zones — gravity rollers handle the day-to-day flow without electricity, motorized rollers manage controlled discharge.

Manufacturing & Assembly Lines

Motorized rollers move parts and sub-assemblies between workstations at controlled speed — accumulation zones hold product when the line downstream pauses, releasing on signal.

Pallet & Drum Handling

Heavy-duty steel rollers move loaded pallets, drums, and bulk containers between staging, storage, and shipping — handles weights that would crush belt conveyors.

Food & Beverage Packaging

Stainless steel SS 304 rollers on stainless frames carry packaged cartons, trays, and crates through filler, sealer, and case-packer stations — washdown-compatible.

Logistics & Order Fulfillment

E-commerce warehouses, courier hubs, and distribution centers — curved roller sections at 30°/45°/60°/90° let cartons turn through pick paths without leaving the conveyor.

General Industrial

Any production environment where cartons, boxes, totes, or palletized loads need to move horizontally between operations — the simplest, most reliable transport solution for hard-wearing industrial use.

Why SANAM

The Conveyor Is Half
the Story. The Team Behind It
Is the Other Half.

Anyone can sell you a conveyor. The question is who picks up the phone six months later when a chain segment fails on a Sunday night.

Egyptian OEM, Not Importer

The conveyor is designed, fabricated, and assembled in our 10th of Ramadan facility — by the same team that installs and supports it. No middleman, no resold equipment, no relabeled imports.

Custom-Engineered to Your Line

We design around your factory floor, your existing fillers and packers, and your container specs. We don't sell standard parts hoping they fit — we design for your line.

Spare Parts in Egypt, in 48 Hours

Spares are typically available within 48 hours from our Egyptian inventory — no import waits, no customs delays, no production downtime while you wait for a chain segment from Europe.

Full System Integration

We don't just supply a conveyor. We connect it to your existing line — matching speed, height, and transfer geometry to your fillers, cappers, labelers, and packers. The line becomes one system, not a stack of disconnected machines.
