Luff Industries announced its latest product innovation for conveyors: the North American Standard Roller (NAS). NAS was developed to allow its customers to standardize on one, high-quality roller, to decrease operating and maintenance costs and increase efficiency.
The advantages of standardization are numerous, but most importantly it decreases costs, saves time, increases output and provides consistency. The ability to save time and simultaneously increase output produces a more-efficiently-run conveyor system.
Standardization also provides consistency in the product and quality of that product, so the customer knows exactly what to expect in terms of longevity and performance. This concept was at the core of developing the NAS Roller.
Each roller is manufactured to Luff’s high-quality standards but can fit into a variety of different manufacturer frames.
The NAS Roller is currently available in 5-in. CEMA C Steel Trough Rolls, for 24- to 48-in. belt widths, for 12 different idler manufacturers.
Customers can now purchase one roller, the NAS Roller, for all their conveyors, regardless of the original manufacturer.
Besides the obvious benefits of standardization, why choose Luff to standardize on? Luff said it prides itself on providing the highest quality product, from the inside out. Each roller includes an SKF Sealed-for-life Ball Bearing, Luff’s patented polymer endcap and dipped shell to prevent corrosion. The durability and performance are unmatched in the industry.
Luff Industries has been manufacturing quality conveyor components, including idlers with patented polymer endcaps and pulleys with an industry-leading rim thickness, to an international market for more than 45 years. Luff products meet or exceed CEMA standards and endure the requirements of the most demanding conveyor systems.
Custom-designed conveyor systems are available with the assistance of Luff’s in-house engineering team to suit all your application needs. All products pass through a full ISO 9001 quality inspection and come backed by a full two-year warranty.
