Hygienic & energy efficient

07 April 2014

With fewer installation parts than conventional geared motor drives, compact, space saving Interroll drum motors offer a quick, cost effective and easy way of building maintenance-free, hygienic and energy-efficient belt conveyors.

Independent test results showed Interroll Drum Motors used 32% less energy (unloaded) and 47% less energy (loaded) than a comparable geared motor drive.

Where hygienic operating conditions are paramount, conventional external belt drive can be a source of contamination. Interroll Drum Motors eliminate this risk as the entire drive mechanism is totally enclosed in a smooth steel shell sealed to IP66/67 standards.

In pioneering drive solutions for modular plastic belt conveyors, Interroll utilises a range of purpose designed, food quality FDA approved profiled rubber and PU lagging, and stainless steel or polymeric sprockets.
