Conventional Conveyors
• Dented, rusty or worn out rollers require frequent replacement
• Stretched or broken O-rings require constant attention
• Belts slip and need to be constantly re-tensioned
• Belts can track to one side and fray on the edge
• Stretched or damaged belts need to be repaired or replaced
• Activation devices on accumulation conveyors need to be replaced from time to time
Requires lots of Spare Parts !
RUS Performance AdvantagesRUS Performance Advantages

• The Roller Upgrade System improves OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) by:
– M aintenance/Downtime reduced by up to 85%– I nventory reduction– N oise reduction– C ut energy use – O ptimize product handling– S afety improvement– T echnical support– S ustainability
RUS Value PropositionRUS Value Proposition

Reduce unplanned downtime by 85% by eliminating…– Number of rotating
components (17,000 to 32)– Fraying concerns w/ flat belt– Punctures/tears on flat belt– Broken o-rings on line-shaft
driven roller conveyors– Line jams by maintaining
product orientation
