Usually, idler rollers aid in the supporting of weight and impact of the materials being transported along the belt. They also assist in the smooth, continuous movement of the material along the belt. Idler rollers can be self-aligning and assist in maintaining the belt tracking.

A conveyor idler roller, also simply called an "idler," is a cylindrical component within a conveyor belt system that primarily functions to support and guide the belt, preventing sagging and ensuring smooth movement of the material being transported by minimizing friction along its path; essentially acting as a rolling support structure for the conveyor belt, allowing it to carry loads efficiently while maintaining proper alignment.
