Belt pulleys

We calculate, design and manufacture belt pulleys up to a diameter of 2,500 mm for belt conveyors in bulk material, conveying and processing plants. Belt pulleys are specialised to drive long conveyor belts around the clock. Therefore, a high processing quality of the components is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are the differences between belt drums and grid discs when used in bucket elevators?

Grid discs are typically used in the foot section of the elevator, as their open bar construction reduces the amount of bulk material becoming trapped, thereby minimising wear on both the bucket belt and the belt drum. Belt drums are mainly used in the head section and ensure reliable drive of the elevator belt under continuous load.

What materials are available for belt drums?

Depending on the operating conditions, belt drums are manufactured from grey cast iron, ductile cast iron, cast steel or as welded steel constructions. The choice of material depends on the load, torque, environmental factors and requirements regarding service life and maintenance intervals. 

How is operational safety ensured during long running times in continuous operation?

The components are designed for 24/7 operation in conveyor systems. Optimised geometries, high-quality materials and optional dynamic balancing reduce vibrations and extend the service life of the belt and bearings.

What options are available for belt guidance and optimising the coefficient of friction?

To improve power transmission and ensure optimum belt guidance, belt drums and grid discs are generally designed with a spherical or domed profile. In addition, rubber coatings (e.g. diamond-patterned, oil- and grease-resistant or FDA-compliant) are available to prevent slippage and optimise static friction.

What design options are available for large bucket elevator systems?

For large systems, several discs can be combined on a single shaft, or reinforced versions can be used. Split designs or special flange widths are also possible to reliably accommodate high throughput rates and large centre distances.
