Motorised Rollers (MDR)

A Motor Driven Roller (MDR) is a key component for modular conveyor systems. It is essentially a roller with a compact, internal brushless DC motor that provides the power for movement. This design eliminates the need for external motors, gearboxes, and bulky drive chains or belts, making conveyors quieter, more energy-efficient, and simpler to configure into zones.
