motorized pulley for conveyor belts
Product Overview
The **Motorized Pulley** is an all-in-one drive solution integrating a motor, gearbox, and drum into a compact, high-efficiency assembly. Designed for seamless power transmission, it eliminates external drives like chains or belts, making it ideal for logistics, manufacturing, mining, and food processing applications.
Core Advantages
🔹 Space-Saving Design
Integrated motor-gearbox-drum unit reduces system footprint.
🔹 Energy Efficiency
Optimized power transfer minimizes losses (up to 95% efficiency).
🔹 Quiet Operation
Precision-engineered components ensure low-noise performance.
🔹 Durability
IP65+ rating for dust/water resistance and harsh environment resilience.
🔹 Versatility
Customizable diameters (50mm–320mm), power (0.1kW–15kW), and voltages (24V DC/230V/400V AC).

Installation Guide
Step-by-Step Installation
Positioning
Mount at conveyor drive end, ensuring drum axis aligns perpendicular to belt travel.
Securing
Use brackets to attach pulley, torque bolts to 40–60 Nm (refer to spec sheet).
Alignment
Use a laser level to ensure horizontal positioning (±0.5° tolerance).
Electrical Setup
Connect power per terminal markings (phase sequence critical for AC models).
For VFD control: Configure ramp-up/down settings to avoid belt shock.
Testing
Run at 50% speed for 10 minutes, check belt tracking and noise levels.
Operational Guidelines
Best Practices
Monitoring: Use thermal imaging to check drum temp (<70°C).
Belt Care: Replace worn belts immediately to prevent tracking issues.
Emergency Stop: Install E-stop within 15m of conveyor.
Maintenance Schedule
Task | Frequency |
---|---|
Drum surface cleaning | Daily (compressed air) |
Belt tension check | Weekly |
Terminal inspection | Quarterly |
Bearing lubrication | Every 2 years (sealed units) |
Troubleshooting
Issue | Solution |
---|---|
No rotation | Check phase sequence, reset thermal overload |
Belt misalignment | Adjust tensioners, realign pulley |
Excessive noise | Inspect bearings, remove debris |
