TYPES OF PULLEY DRUM BELT
CONVEYOR
The selection of the drum
conveyor pulley that we want to use on the belt conveyor system is something
that is easy and difficult, therefore we can look at the various types of
conveyor drum pulleys that we can choose.
DRIVE PULLEY DRUM BELT
CONVEYOR/ HEAD PULLEY DRUM BELT CONVEYOR
The drive pulley drum belt
conveyor on a belt conveyor system is used to drive the belt conveyor. In
general, the drive pulley drum belt conveyor will be fitted with a bearing block
which will then be driven by the conveyor motor so that the drive pulley drum
belt conveyor can turn around.
RETURN PULLEY DRUM BELT
CONVEYOR/ TAIL PULLEY DRUM BELT CONVEYOR
The opposite of a drive pulley
drum belt conveyor, a return pulley drum belt conveyor is used to control the
direction of movement of the conveyor belt towards its original point. We can
install the return pulley drum belt conveyor on the bearing block.
SNUB PULLEY DRUM BELT CONVEYOR
Snub pulley drum belt conveyor
is a type of pulley drum belt conveyor that is used to increase the tension
level of the conveyor belt when it is located near the drive pulley drum belt
conveyor.
TAKE-UP PULLEY DRUM BELT
CONVEYOR
Unlike the snub pulley drum
belt conveyor, we can control the type of take-up pulley drum belt conveyor so
that we can increase or decrease the tension level of a conveyor belt according
to our needs.
BEND PULLEY DRUM BELT CONVEYOR
As the name implies, a bend pulley drum belt conveyor
serves to refocus the conveyor belt and provide tension on the conveyor belt
when a bend occurs in a conveyor belt system.
