Abstract
A roller conveyor system for conveying material may include a frame and roller conveyors arranged on the frame. The roller conveyor system is configurable in an operating state and in a maintenance state. At least one of the roller conveyors is arranged in an operating position in the operating state and in a maintenance position that is different from the operating position in the maintenance state. In the maintenance position, a region is then advantageously freed up, which can be used to perform maintenance. In addition, a method for transferring such a roller conveyor system from an operating state into a maintenance state may involve transferring one of the roller conveyors from the operating position into a maintenance position different from the operating position.
