Drive Pulley – HiTop Motion Technology

Drive Pulley

Delivers driving force with robust structure for efficient belt operation.

Overview

Drive pulley is a key component in belt conveyor systems, working in conjunction with the motor to provide the traction force needed for continuous material transport.

It is widely used in heavy-duty applications such as mining, power, ports, cement, and metallurgy.

More Details For Our Customers

Structure Composition

A drive pulley typically consists of the drum shell, main shaft, bearing housings, bearings, sealing system, and hub structure. Optional features include welded or crowned designs, with rubber lagging (cold-bonded or hot-vulcanized) to enhance grip.

Custom Options & Parameters

·Drive pulleys are the key power transmission components in conveyor systems and can be tailored in many aspects depending on site requirements. Main configurable options include:
·Pulley Diameter & Length: Common diameters range from φ220 to 1250mm. Lengths are customized based on belt width and system power needs (e.g., 500mm, 1000mm, 1600mm).
·Shaft & Bearing Housing: Available shaft sizes include φ50, φ60, φ80, φ100mm with matching housings such as SN or SD series.
·Lagging Type & Thickness: Options include plain or diamond/chevron patterned lagging, with rubber thickness typically 8–20mm, made of standard, wear-resistant, or ceramic materials.
·Shaft End Connection: Various designs supported such as single or double drive, with keyway, locking bush, or flange-type coupling.
·Balance Level & Testing: Optional dynamic balancing (e.g., G40, G16) available to suit high-speed or heavy-duty applications.

Manufacturing & Quality Control

Our drive pulleys are built using high-strength welded structures and precision machining, ensuring reliable performance under heavy-duty and harsh conditions:
·Durable Structural Materials: Drums are fabricated from thick welded pipes or steel plates, with tempered alloy steel shafts for enhanced strength and fatigue resistance.
·Advanced Machining: CNC turning ensures precise fit between pulley shells and bearing housings, supporting long-term alignment and balance.
·Dynamic Balancing: All drive pulleys are dynamically balanced to ensure low vibration and noise at high speeds.
·Reliable Lagging Process: Various lagging methods available, such as hot vulcanization and cold bonding, ensure strong adhesion and high wear resistance.
·Strict QC Process: Quality control includes weld inspection, dimensional checks, load testing, visual inspection, and balance verification before delivery.

FAQ or Maintenance Tips

·FAQ
Slippage or belt pulling often occurs due to worn lagging or insufficient tension.
·Maintenance Tip
Check lagging wear regularly, adjust tension, or replace lagging as needed.
