Conveyor Head Pulley

The belt conveyor head pulley is located at the discharge point of conveyor. It drives the conveyor belt. For better traction, the head pulley is usually lagged (with either rubber or ceramic lagging material).

APPLICATIONS

The head pulley is typically located at the discharge end of the conveyor system, opposite the tail pulley. The primary function of the head pulley is to transmit power from the motor to the conveyor belt, causing it to move and transport materials along the conveyor. It is widely used in metallurgy, mining, transportation, Cement, construction, chemical, building, materials, light industry, petroleum, printing, dyeing and textile etc.

Features

Heady Pulley Construction

Head pulleys are usually constructed from steel. The outer surface of the pulley, where the conveyor belt makes contact, may be lagged with rubber or other materials to provide better traction and reduce wear.
Various Diameter Selection

The diameter of the head pulley is an important design consideration. Larger diameter head pulleys provide more surface area for the conveyor belt to grip, resulting in better traction and reduced tension requirements.
Robust Shaft Design

The design of the shaft on which the head pulley is mounted is important. It must be robust enough to handle the loads and forces exerted by the conveyor system.
Environment Considerations

The environmental conditions at the location of the head pulley, such as exposure to dust, moisture, or corrosive substances, may influence the choice of materials and coatings for the pulley.
High Quality Bearings

Bearings are mounted on the shaft of the head pulley to facilitate smooth rotation. The type of bearings used depends on factors such as load capacity, speed, and environmental conditions. We offer SKF, FAG, NSK, LYC, HRB, or ZWZ for selection.
