Principle of function
If the belt moves in direction “A”, it pushes against pulley “B” and the centre fitted roller console swings to the cross position as shown. The roller, thus, guides the belt into the centre of the conveyor and the roller console returns to upright position.
Belt guide arrangement can only be used for belts without guide profiles. For belts with guide profiles, a parted support roller must be used.
