Product Description

Conveyor Pulley is manufactured as per customer requirement,with main design under national standard,quality inspection focusing on shaft core,welded joint,rubber material and hardness,dynamic balance and so on for longer product life time.

Drive/Head Pulley – A conveyor pulley used for the purpose of driving a conveyor belt. Typically mounted in external bearings and driven by an external drive source.

Return/Tail Pulley – A conveyor pulley used for the purpose of redirecting a conveyor belt back to the drive pulley. Tail pulleys can utilize internal bearings or can be mounted in external bearings and are typically located at the end of the conveyor bed. Tail pulleys commonly serve the purpose of a Take-Up pulley on conveyors of shorter lengths.

Snub Pulley – A conveyor pulley used to increase belt wrap around a drive pulley, typically for the purpose of improving traction.

Take-Up Pulley – A conveyor pulley used to remove slack and provide tension to a conveyor belt. Take-Up pulleys are more common to conveyors of longer lengths.

Bend Pulley – A conveyor pulley used to redirect the belt and provide belt tension where bends occur in the conveyor system.

The specification of pulley:
Drive Drum: is the main component of power transmission. The drum can be divided into single drum (the angle of the belt to the drum is 210 ° ~ 230 °) , Double Drum (the angle of the belt to the drum is up to 350 °) and
multi-drum (used for high power) . 
Bend Drum: is used for changing the running direction of the conveyor belt or increasing the surrounding angle of the conveyor belt on the driving roller, and the roller adopts a smooth rubber surface . The drum shaft shall be forgings and shall be nondestructive tested and the inspection report shall be provided. 
The Various Surface of Pulley:
Conveyor pulley lagging is essential to improve conveyor belt performance, the combination of our pulley lagging can reduces belt slippage, improve tracking and extends life of belt, bearing & other components.

PLAIN LAGGING:This style of finish is suitable for any pulley in the conveyor system where watershed is not necessary. It provides additional protection against belt wear, therefore, increasing the life of the pulley.

DIAMOND GROOVE LAGGING:This is the standard pattern on all Specdrum lagged conveyor pulleys. It is primarily used for reversing conveyor drive pulleys. It is also often used to allow bi-directional pulley rotation, and the pattern allows water to be dispersed away from the belt.

HERRINGBONE LAGGING:The herringbone pattern’s grooves are in the direction of rotation, and offers superior tractive properties. Each groove allows water and other liquids to escape between the face of the drum pulley and the belt. Herringbone grooved pulleys are directional and should be applied to the conveyor in a manner in which the grooves point toward the direction of the belt travel.

CHEVRON LAGGING:Some customers specify that the points of the groove should meet – as done in Chevron styled lagging. As before with the herringbone style, this would be used on drive drum pulleys and should be fitted in the correct manner, so as to allow proper use of the pattern and water dispersion also.

CERAMIC LAGGING:The Ceramic tiles are moulded into the lagging which is then cold bonded to the drum pulley. This style of finish allows excellent traction and reduces slippage, meaning that the belt tension is lower and, therefore as a result, increases the life of the pulley.

WELD-ON STRIP LAGGING: Weld-On Strip Lagging can be applied to bi-directional pulleys, and also has a finish to allow the easy dispersion of water or any fluids between the drum pulley and the belt.

The Components of Pulley:
 

1. Drum or Shell:The drum is the portion of the pulley in direct contact with the belt. The shell is fabricated from either a rolled sheet of steel or from hollow steel tubing.

2.Diaphragm Plates: The diaphragm or end plates of a pulley are circular discs which are fabricated from thick steel plate and which are welded into the shell at each end, to strengthen the drum.The end plates are bored in their centre to accommodate the pulley Shaft and the hubs for the pulley locking elements.

3.Shaft :The shaft is designed to accommodate all the applied forces from the belt and / or the drive unit, with minimum deflection. The shaft is located and locked to the hubs of the end discs by means of a locking elements. The shaft and hence pulley shafts are often stepped.

4.Locking Elements:These are high-precision manufactured items which are fitted over the shaft and into the pulley hubs. The locking elements attach the pulley firmly to the shaft via the end plates.

5.Hubs:The hubs are fabricated and machined housings which are welded into the end plates.

6.Lagging: It is sometimes necessary or desirable to improve the friction between the conveyor belt and the pulley in order to improve the torque that can be transmitted through a drive pulley. Improved traction over a pulley also assists with the training of the belt. In such cases pulley drum surfaces are `lagged` or covered in a rubberized material.

7.Bearing: Bearings used for conveyor pulleys are generally spherical roller bearings, chosen for their radial and axial load supporting characteristics. The bearings are self-aligning relative to their raceways, which means that the bearings can be ‘misaligned’ relative to the shaft and plummer blocks, to a certain degree. In practical terms this implies that the bending of the shaft under loaded conditions as well as minor misalignment of the pulley support structure, can be accommodated by the bearing.

Types of pulleys and their advantages and disadvantages

There are several types of pulleys. Learn the basic equations of the pulley system. Then learn about the different uses for pulleys. The disadvantages of using pulleys will be covered. Knowing these, you can buy the pulley that suits your needs. Here are some of the best pulley types and their pros and cons.

Basic equations of pulley systems

A pulley system is a mechanism that allows 2 blocks of a certain mass to be connected by a taut rope. The acceleration of each block is the same in magnitude and direction. The external force acting on each block is the weight of the block (10g) and the tension in the string. The tension between the 2 blocks is the total tension and the force acting on the pulley is the weight of the 2 blocks.
This simple mechanism uses 2 simple equations to explain how the system works. First, the mass of the weight on both sides of the pulley must be the same. When the weight is forced to move, the rope tightens and the second pulley descends. The weight is also attached to the second pulley and must be the same distance as the first pulley. This will result in a speed ratio of 2 times the distance covered by the first pulley.
Second, we have to calculate the force required to lift the object. The lower mass is supported by a wire configuration passing through all pulleys, while the uppermost pulley is used to apply the force. The lower block is used to support the weight. The applied force needs to travel a distance nx to move the weight. This distance, called MA, can be written as:
Once we have gathered the necessary information, we can apply the calculations to the pulley system. We can also use the Mechanical Advantage Calculator to calculate the force on the anchor. To do this, we must apply a force to the load as well as to the pulley itself. Using this equation, we can calculate the force required by the load to lift the load.

Types of pulleys

There are 3 basic types of pulleys: movable, fixed and compound. Both types of pulleys translate the force applied to them. The ideal mechanical advantage of pulleys is two. This is because a single movable pulley only doubles the force, whereas a compound pulley doubles or triples the force. This type of pulley is often used with other types of pulleys.
Movable pulls move with the weight of the load, and the force pulling them increases on the lift side. They are often found in utility elevators and construction cranes. These systems are very simple, inexpensive and quiet to use. The force required to lift the object depends on the mechanical advantage of the system. The 2 most common types of pulleys are listed below. Let’s take a closer look at each one.
V-shaped pulleys are used in vehicles and electric motors. These pulleys require a “V” belt to function properly. Some have multiple “V” grooves to avoid slipping. They are used in heavy duty applications to reduce the risk of power slip. These pulleys also have more than 1 “V” groove. V-belt pulleys are commonly used in vehicles and electric motors.
Composite pulleys are made from more than 1 type of cable or rope wrapped around the wheel. They can be fixed or hinged and are usually made of stainless steel or bronze. Composite pulleys have multiple layers and can be a single unit or many different components. There are 3 main types of pulleys: fixed pulleys and composite pulleys. These are the most common types. Almost every type of pulley is used for some type of application.
Fixed pulleys have 1 advantage over movable pulleys: they change direction as the weight of the load increases. They are typically used in heavy construction equipment. Gun tackles, patio tackles, and stationary tackles are examples of equipment that use a pulley mechanism. These devices are very common and can be found on most modern construction sites. They provide great convenience for lifting large loads.

application

What are the applications of pulleys? Simply put, a pulley is a mechanical device that transforms a difficult task into an easier one. It consists of ropes and pulleys. It is usually used to lift objects. Usually, people wrap a rope around a pulley and pull up to lift the object. One disadvantage of using pulleys is that they require the same force as lifting the object directly.
One of the most popular applications of pulleys is lifting heavy objects. They help people pull up heavy objects and blocks. The system can also be used in seeders, lifts, grinders, etc. Other applications include raising flags, loading cargo, pulling curtains and rock or mountain climbing. Students can learn about the various uses of pulleys and the physics behind them.
Pulleys can be made of many different materials, depending on the application. Some are movable, which means they move with the object they are used to lift. This pulley system can be made of nylon, wire rope or fiber material. The best part about these systems is that they are easy to install and maintain. For a better grasp, use the guide or video tutorial to learn more about the pulley system and how it works.
Tapered pulleys are common in paper mills. They are high-quality pulleys that transmit power to connected parts. They can be dynamic or static and have different balances. Because pulley systems are highly customized, most industrial applications require systems designed specifically for specific applications. In this way, the system is safe, simple and inexpensive. The benefits of this design are endless.
The most common use of pulleys is for motor drives. They are used to minimize noise by applying force to the shaft to reduce the workload. They are also less expensive than gears and do not require lubrication. Furthermore, they can change the direction of the applied force. They are also less expensive than gears and are often used with other components. A screw is a cylindrical member with helical ribs used to connect something.

shortcoming

Although the pulley system makes it easier to move heavy objects, it still has some drawbacks. When using a pulley system, you must remember that the force required to lift the weight increases with the number of cycles. In addition, the distance between the puller and the heavy object increases, which may lead to accidents. Also, moving heavy objects can be tricky if the rope slips. Pulley systems are not very expensive and can be easily assembled. However, it does require a lot of space.
First, it is not efficient. Besides being inefficient, pulleys produce different forces at different speeds. Fixed pulleys use more force than the load, while movable pulleys move with the load. A movable pulley requires less force than a fixed pulley, but the combined system travels a long distance. Therefore, this method is not as efficient as the fixed method.
Pulleys are not only used in industrial processes. You can see them in various places in your daily life. For example, large construction cranes use pulleys to lift heavy loads. Even flagpoles, blinds, clotheslines, ziplines, motors and climbing equipment use pulleys. Still, despite their advantages, the disadvantages are not too serious.
Another disadvantage of the pulley is its wear and tear. While a pulley’s housing is theoretically infinite, its bearings and locking components typically wear out over time. To overcome this problem, a new bearing and locking assembly can be installed. No need to replace the housing and shaft, the entire assembly can be re-bonded and painted to replicate the original look. Alternatively, the pulley can be replaced with a new housing and shaft.
Using pulleys can also reduce the advantage of pulleys. On the other hand, interception and tackle is a system in which 2 pulleys are connected to each other using ropes. Unlike pulleys, pulley pulley systems can be adjusted in the direction of travel and can move heavy loads up to 4 times their force when used in hydraulic lifts.
