Primarily, adjustments should be performed with the ultimate goal to control the

axial thrust of the unit, while relieving the thrust pressure on the individual rollers. Another important reason for regular adjustments is to correct any alignment

imbalances, focusing on OEM‐specified positions for the rollers. Thirdly, adjustments are conducted in case of mechanical problems with the unit.

For example, a unit with a hot or damaged bearing may have to be adjusted to compensate for the problematic roller, relieving the thrust on the individual bearing. This, of course, is an extreme measure, but unfortunately more common than it should be. Compensating for one individual bearing can cause the others to absorb the load, increasing wear and failure in other areas. When good preventative maintenance programs are in place, we notice that such reactionary solutions aren’t necessary.

Most common wear conditions are concave and convex wear patterns where the tire wears in a crowned type pattern and the roller wears in a dished‐out shape as the tire sits down into it. This should be of concern because it means the tire has been mechanically locked into place as it wears down into the rollers and can’t move very well in one direction or another. This can also lead into further thrusting issues and possibly bearing problems on individual rollers.

This happens mainly because it is the easiest to access, or may be the coolest roller in an extremely hot environment. The result is having a single roller taking on the majority of the unit’s thrust and, because of its negative long term effects, we do not recommend this practice. Another type of wear pattern that can occur over an extended period of time is conical or tapered. This is a particularly concerning type of wear because it can cause the axis of the tire to tilt and drive into the retaining blocks, leading to mechanical as well as thrust problems.

Download— Anddiagonal Print Some more wear patterns you Cancel may encounter marks are indication of roller maladjustment; a band of  pitting marks on one side of the unit can mean there is too much pressure on that side; and  flat spots are noticeable when other problems arise with the unit, so make sure to look into all possible causes before making the adjustment.

There are three primary signs to look for: temperature, vibration and wear patterns. An increase in the temperature in the bearing taking the load is a very strong indicator of excessive thrust and wear. Unusual vibration signals the bearings are overloading. Thirdly, we look for specific wear patterns. The unit might present concave or convex patterns; spalls or metal flaking where the tires are thrusting too hard; diagonal marks showing a excessively skewed roller; or even flat spots, indicating the gear is bottoming in the pinion. Any of these signs point to undesirable mechanical conditions and adjustments will need to be made.

What is the best way to adjust rollers to not have alignment issues?  The best way to adjust your unit’s rollers falls within the best practices of alignment procedures outlined in your OEM specifications. The key adjustment advice we can offer is to always balance the load between all rollers versus one particular roller. It is a common practice as well to adjust the height of the gear from bottoming in the pinion by moving the rollers in on the drive pier. This will eventually cause a misalignment of the unit that can contribute to wear conditions.
