EMRI (Easy Maintenance Retractable Idler) – Return Idler Frame
The EMRI Return Idler Frame is a drop-in, retractable idler solution that gives safe, fast access for roller change-outs—without altering your conveyor geometry. It maintains identical parameters to your existing return idler design while adding a smart retractable trolley and integrated belt-lifting system for clear, unobstructed access to the rollers.
A positive locking arrangement holds the roller trolleys in an inclined position during operation; during maintenance, the trolleys are lowered to horizontal and slide out for direct, ergonomic access. Removable fixing bolts and a dedicated roller removal tool streamline handling, reducing manual lift risk and cutting change-out duration. Installation is simple: the EMRI frame replaces the existing return idler assembly with no modification to the conveyor structure required.
Engineered for safety and uptime, the EMRI delivers tool-controlled access, stable belt lifting, and zero-mod install—so roller swaps are planned, quick, and low-risk.
