They are available with huge variants depending upon the application viz.:-
-
Self discharge shake-out (small-medium-large size)
-
Knockout cum feeder (medium and large size)

Both above with eccentric shaft design or with vibratory motor design.
The BMM make Roller conveyors are designed and manufactured to serve the foundries for decades. They are used to move and convey the boxes in a smooth way from the moulding station to the closing and pouring area. They can be also used in mould automation.
The form of the Rollers are:-
-
Plain roller conveyors
