With fewer installation parts than
conventional geared motor drives,
compact space saving
Interroll drum motors
claim to provide a
quick, cost effective
and easy way of
building maintenancefree,
hygienic and energy-efficient
belt conveyors. Independent test
results are reported to have shown
that 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, Interroll
says tests have identified
conventional external belt drive
systems as being a source of
contamination in food processing. Its
drum motors eliminate this risk as
the entire drive mechanism is
enclosed in a smooth steel shell
sealed to IP66/67.

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