Conveyor Roller
A method of continuously clearing contaminants from a conveyor system and having an endless belt of conveyor media, and support rollers supporting said belt around which said belt runs, wherein at least one of said rollers is equipped with contaminant clearing abutments, and comprising the steps of; continuously rotating said rollers, thereby moving said belt there around; allowing said contaminant material to pass between said belt and said rollers; continuously collecting said contaminant material between said abutments, including in an intermediate area defined by at least two spaced groups of said abutments arranged so that leading ends of said groups of abutments are directed towards each other in said intermediate area and causing said contaminant material to flow uninhibited along said intermediate area and abutments, to either end of said rollers, and allowing said contaminant material to be ejected from between said rollers and said belt at either end of said rollers.
Gravity Roller Conveyor
Gravity Roller conveyor are widely used in unit load handling conveyor system because of their simplicity, low unit cost and ease of maintenance. Gravity roller conveyor can be applied in the form of level push-lines or graded lines using the force of gravity.

Clean room conveyor roller OAI
The OAI clean room compatible conveyor is available in several styles suitable for a variety of material handling applications. The C2000 roller style intelligent Conveyor Roller offers certified Class 1 clean room compatibility for those critical applications in process areas that demand the lowest level of particulate contamination. The length of Gravity roller conveyor is segmented into nine-inch long zones Each zone is independently controlled by a control card which is networked to adjacent control cards and higher level system hosts.
In still a further aspect, the invention provides a method of continuously clearing contaminants from a conveyor system and having an endless belt of conveyor media, and support rollers supporting the belt around which the belt runs, and wherein at least one of the Conveyor Roller is equipped with contaminant clearing abutments, and comprises the steps of continuously rotating the rollers, thereby moving the belt there around; wherein some of the contaminant material may pass between the belt and the Conveyor Roller; further comprising the steps of continuously collecting the contaminant material between the abutments, and causing the contaminant material to flow along the abutments to either end of the Conveyor Roller; allowing the contaminant material to be ejected from between the Gravity roller conveyor and the belt at either end of the Conveyor Roller.
