Designed for high-end performance, Interroll's PolyVee combines RollerDrives (24 V DC drives), 3500 Series roller conveyors and multi-rib belts to form a functional unit of very high quality.

A single RollerDrive is sufficient to safely and reliably transport conveyor segments up to 5m long and heavy unit loads of up to 100kg in weight. This means it is possible to reduce the number of drives to an absolute minimum. The RollerDrive transfers the power via nonslip multi-rib belts to the 3500 Series roller conveyors, featuring PolyVee drive heads with nine grooves.

The new system is reported to be capable of achieving up to 300% more torque transmission compared to standard round belts and the flexible design of the multi-rib belts makes the system particularly simple and efficient to assemble, even when used for retrofit.

Curves also benefit from the enhanced performance of the PolyVee drive solution.

Thanks to their elasticity, PolyVee belts are said to ensure optimal propulsion irrespective of the curve configuration.
