MANUFACTURING

AND ASSEMBLY

AREA

Above are several views of the manufacturing process of a crowned faced pulley. Initially, the steel rim is rolled to a concentric circle in crown facing rolls specially constructed for the production of conveyor pulleys. Following this operation, end discs are precision flame cut on a specially constructed cutting machine. To assure perfect concentricity, the hub is first mounted in the end disc where upon the entire assembly is then cut to the required diameter. This process assures a negligeable deviation in diameter and thus a more concentric conveyor pulley. Large intermediate and center discs are used on all conveyor pulleys with the exception of those having small diameters and face widths.These

discs are welded to the interior of the rim. Following this operation, the end discs are mounted using a shaft with a continual keyway to assure perfect aligment of the bushing keyways. The entire assembly is then hydraulically drawn together and welded to form a concentric drum. In the final welding operation, the pulley is placed on a special machine that turns the pulley at a precise speed, depending on the diameter, to ensure a perfect, high penetration weld between end disc and rim. The pulley is then meticulously checked and verified to CEMA specifications prior to shipping to ensure complete customer satisfaction.

Continental welded steel conveyor pulleys are availa~ ble with CXTB, DODGE "taper lock" or O.D. hubs.

The 3/4" per foot taper of the 0.0. provides a 32 to 1 locking ratio on the shaft. The advantages of the 0.0. system are its superior holding power in both lateral and torsional directions, its ease of assembly and disassembly and its self locking taper. The large CJp screws provide enough force to lock the taper so that no external keys are required between mating sections.

IS USED

When ordering shafting, please specify the following information and if possible include a sketch similar to the one appearing below. This additional data will help elliminate errors. ') Diameter and length. 2) Number and sizes of keyway required. 3) Shaft length on either side of the pulley, measured from the edge of rim. 4) Diameter and length of journal if required. Please note that excessive shaft deflection is the main cause of pulley failure. It is therefore recommended that one be generous when selecting shaft sizes. It is also important to remember that while alloy steel increases shaft strength, it should not be used to decrease shaft diameter.

The shafting specified for use with Continental conveyor pulleys is AISI 1045, a high carbon steel with a tensile strength of approximately 105,000 Ibs. per square inch. This material is particularly well suited for applications requiring high grade transmission as the carbon content makes it one of the strongest steels in the carbon range (excluding alloy steels) and it machines to an extremely smooth finish.

FOR DETERMINING PULLEY AND SHAFT SPECIFICATIONS

(Drive and Non-Drive Pulleys)

This quick reference source will enable the reader to select the right pulley and shaft for a conveyor system. It has been prepared and used by experienced pulley engineers who know the importance of preventing conveyor breakdown by properly matching pulleys and shafts to the system.
1. Find the appropriate Horsepower coll:Jmn on Table I. Look down F.P.M. (Feet Per Minute) column until belt speed of conveyor corresponds. Read across to Horsepower column. This number is Te (Effective Tension) of conveyor system. Also Te = HP x 33,000 F.P.M. 2. Find the appropriate K factor from Table II. The K factor has to do with the type of drive and take-up of the conveyor system. Take this K factor x (times) Te. This is T 2 or T J (Slack Side Tension) for the conveyor system. T 2 is associated with the Drive Pulley, and T J is associated with the Non-Drive Pulley(s). 3. For Non-Drive Pulley(s), determine the arc in degrees the belt contacts each pulley. Then using Table III for each Non-Drive Pulley, determine the individual factor for each. Take this factor times TJ. This gives the resultant load for each Non-Drive Pulley. 4. For Drive Pulley, add T 2 and Te. This equals T1 (Tight Side Tension) for the Drive Pulley. Then divide T1 by T 2' This equals ratio for Table IV. Determine the arc of contact the belt makes with the Drive Pulley. Read down the Ratio Column until corresponding ratio is found; thE:n go across to Arc of Contact Column. Take this new factor times T2. This gives resultant load for the Drive Pulley. 5. From Table V find the desired belt width. Recommended pulley width is given in corresponding column. 6. To determine shaft size, use Table VI (a), or VI (b), (allowable shaft load). The table is computed for Non-Drive Pulleys, (shafts with 8000 psi allowable bending stress). For Drive Pulleys, we multiply allowable load column by 0.75. In effect, this allows 6000 psi stress for Drive Pulleys. Still using Table VI (a or b), we take the bearing centers of the pulley and subtract the face width. This number is used in the "Bearing Centers-(Minus) Face" columns. Next, using the resultant load we go down the "Bearing Centers-(Minus) Face" column until the value for allowable load is greater than our computed resultant load. The corresponding shaft is listed horizontally in the shaft size column. this procedure for each pulley. We follow

7. Next, we divide Tl and T3 by the belt width. This gives us PIW for both the Drive {Tv and Non-Drive (T 3) Pulleys. Then using Table VII, we select a pulley diameter with an allowable PIW greater than our computed PIW for each pulley. 8. Using Table VIII we again select pulley diameter by finding a diameter with maximum shaft size as large or larger than our computed shaft size, doing this for each pulley. 9. Select the larger of the two diameters found in procedure 7 and 8 for each pulley.

1. From Table I: 100 H.P. @ 300 F.P.M.=ll,OOO# 100 x 33,000 (Te). Also 300 -= 11,000#. 2. From Table II: Snubbed Drive, Lagged Drive, Automatic Take-up, K Factor = 0.38. 0.38 x 11,000# = 4180# (T2or T3). 3. The Non-Drive Pulleys have the following degrees of wr?p: Snub: Tail: 30. 180. Bend No.1: Bend No.2: go. 90.

Take-up:

180.

From Table III, the Bend Pulleys have a factor of 1.41422.418Q# x 1.41422 = 5911#. This is the resultant load for the Bend Pulleys. Also from Table III, factor for the Tail and Take-up Pulleys is 2.00000. Therefore, 2.00000 x 4180# = 8360# (resultant). The Snub Pulley has a factor of 0.51764. 4180# x 0.51764= 2164# (resultant). 4. For the Drive Pulley, Te + T2=15,180# (TJ. T1 -:- T2 = 3.63 (ratio). From Table IV using 210. wrap column and 3.63 ratio, we get a new factor of 4.5238 by interpolation. Then take 4.5238 x 4180# = 18,909# (resultant).
5. Since we have a 42" belt we can see from the recommended pulley width in Table V that we should use a 44" wide pulley.

7. T1 = 15,180# (15,180# -7 42" = 361 Ib./in.) T3 = 4,180# ( 4,180# + 42" = 100 Ib./in.) Using Table VII, we need a 30" Pulley for the Drive and 6" for the Non-Drive. 8. By using Table VIII and maximum shaft sizes, we see we need a 24" pulley for the Drive, 14" for the Tail and Take-up; 10" for the Bends, and 6" for the Snub.
9:. Therefore, we would select a 30" Drive (when ttlere is a choice of diameters, always use the largest), 14" Tail and Take-up, 6" Snub and 10" Bends.

(
Continental Conveyor Wing Pulleys are ruggedly constructed with a heavy center tube taking the direct load from the wing plates and transmitting this load through hubs to the shaft. The sloping wing plates automatically shed the material to each side of the pulley thus preventing build-up on the pulley face which can cause considerable damage to the belt, Welded steel wing type pulleys are recommended for tail shafts of belt conveyors and the boot shaft of bucket elevators.

FOR DETERMINING PULLEY AND SHAFT SPECIFICATIONS

This quick reference source enables the reader to select the proper pulley and shaft for wing applications. It has been prepared and used by experienced pulley engineers who know the importance of preventing conveyor breakdown by properly matching pulleys and shafts to the system.
1. The Effective Tension (Te) for a conveyor system is found in Table I. Locate the appropriate Horsepower column and lo'ok down the F.P.M. (feet per minute) column until belt speed of the conveyor corresponds. Read across to Horsepower column. This number is the Te of the conveyor system. Also Te= HP x 33,000

Known:
210 Wrap on Head Pulley 300 F.P.M 42" Belt ~ . Head Drive 60"Bea rlng Centers on all Pulleys Lagged Head Pulley Automatic Take-up To Find: Te and T 3 Diameter of each Put!ey Width of Pu.1J.eys ResuftantLoad of each PuJley Shaft Size for each Pulley 100 Horsepower

F.P.M.
2. Find the K factor for the conveyor from Table II. The K factor has to do with the type of driv~ and take-up of the system. Take this K factor x (times) Te. This result is T 3 (Slack side tension) for the conveyor system. 3. Having found the maximum slack side tension (T 3)' divide T 3 by the belt width. This will be the calcul~ed tension in pounds per inch of belt width (P.I.W.). Select a pulley diameter from Table )11 (Wing Pulley Allowable Tensions) which has a P.I.W. rating that is equal to or larger than the calculated

P.I.W.

1. From Table I: 100 H.P. at 300 F.P.M.=11,OOO# (Te). Also 100 x 33,000 = 11 000# 300 ,. 2. From Table II: Snubbed Drive, Lagged Drive, Automatic Take-up, K Factor is 0.38. 0.38 x 11,000# = 4180# (T 3)' 3. Slack Side Tension (T 3) divided by belt width is 4180# + 42 = 100 P.I.W. Thus from Table III a 16" diameter pulley has a P.I.W. rating equal to for greater than calculted P.I.W. The belting manufacturer's recommendations for minimum pulley diameter must also be considered and the larger of the two should be selected. 4. Since we have a 42" belt we must have a pulley face width two inches wider. Therefore we use a 44" wide pulley. 5. The Non-Drive Pulleys have the following degrees of wrap: Snub: 30' Take-up: 180" Tail: 180" Bends: 90" From Table IV, the Snub Pulley has a factor of 0.51764. 4180# x 0.51764 = 2164#. This is the resultant load for the Snub Pulley. Also from Table IV, factor for the Tail and Take-Up is 2.00000, therefore, 4180# x 2.00000 = 8360# (resultant). The Bend Pulleys have a 1.41422 factor. 4180# x 1.41422 = 5911# (resultant). 6. Bearing Centers -(Minus) Face for all pulleys: 60" -(Minus) 44" = 16". From Table V the shaft size for the snub pulley would be 2-11/16" (Allowable Load of 2350# is greater than Calculated Load of2164#). FortheTail and Take-Up a 4-7/16" shaft is required. (9360# being greater than 8360#). For the Bend Pulleys a 3-15/16" shaft is required. (6690# being greater than 5911#).

4. Pulley width in most cases will be the same as that of the drive pulley in the system. (Two inches wider than the belt for belts up to 42" wide; three inches wider than the belt for belts over 42" wide). 5. To calculate the resultant load, first determine the arc in degrees the belt contacts each pulley. Then using Table IV (Resultant Load Factor) find the individual factor for each. Take this factor x (times) T 3. This givesthe resultant load for each of the pulleys in question. 6. To determine shaft size, use Table V (Wing Pulley Allowable Shaft Loads). The table is computed for shaft stresses of 6000 psi. For 8000 psi bending stress use a 1.33 multiplier. Still using Table V, take the bearing centers of the pulley and subtract the face width (See Figure 1). This number is used in the "Bearing Centers -(Minus) Face" columns. Next, using the resultant load obtained in step 5 go down the proper "Bearing Centers -(Minus) Face" column until the value for allowable load is greater than the computed resultant load. Select the corresponding shaft listed horizontally in the shaft size column.

VULCANIZED

RUBBER

LAGGING

Vulcanized rubber lagging without cloth fabric is applied directly to the pulley face by the vulcanizing process. The finished rubber surface has a cloth impression left on it. Lagging is primarily used in conditions that necessitate increasing the tractive capacity of the pulley in drive applications or for resisting abrasive conditions on other pulley applications. Standard lagging is of 60 durometer shore A material and is available in thicknesses of 6, 10, 16, -20 and 25 mm. The tolerances of vulcanized lagging are 4 mm on the rubber thickness. Due to these tolerances, it is therefore possible that a pulley have a high crown, flat or even concave surface at certain points even though the pulley had a perfect crown prior to lagging. The fact that rubber displaces can also have on effect on the crown since in high tension application, a certain amount of the crown can be pressed out. If you have an application that requires exact tolerances, we suggest you specify a machined lagged pulley.

HERRINGBONE

RUBBER

LAGGING

Herringbone lagging is applied to increase the tractive capacity of the pulley under wet or dirty conditions in which plain lagging would not be sufficient for the task. The herringbone design helps avoid build up of foreign material between the belt and pulley surface thus lowering the belt wear and minimizing alignment problems. The minimum thickness that can be effectively grooved with the herringbone pattern is 10 mm. As with plain lagging, the same rubber specifications and limitations apply. Therefore if exact tolerances are necessary, a machined lagged pulley is advisable.

HOLZ SUDELAG
A quality rubber lagging is bonded directly to special traction pads which in turn are fitted to the pulley rim by special retaining bars. This system allows new lagging to be installed on the pulley without removing it from its position on the conveyor.

LAGGED

WING

PULLEYS

A lagged wing pulley is used in cases involving build up of material between the conveyor belt and pulley causing belt misalignment and excessive wear. It can also be used in cases requiring a greater tractive capacity between belt and pulley. The lagged wing pulley principle works as follows. Upon contact with the belt, the rubber on the wing tip compresses, when tension is releived it immediatly returns to its original shape thereby cleaning itself in the process. These wing tip rubber sections are easily replaceable.

SPIRAL.

DRUM

PULLEYS

This unique design reduces belt wear and misalgnment. As with all self cleaning pulleys, rotation automatically starts the cleaning action discharging foreign material to the sides of the conveyor. The Continental spiral drum pulley is formed by a pair of vertical steel flat bars helically wound around a drum, having both begun from the opposite extremities of the pulley and meeting in the middle. There is a uniform pitch to these helices and thus material is uniformly discharged. This design reduces the possibility of material build up between the belt and pulley in application where a self cleaning wing pulley is not practical.

SPIRAL

WING

PULLEYS

The spiral wing pulley is used in applications that necessitate reducing material build up between the belt and pulley while also utilising the wing principle of the self cleaning pulley. The cleaning action begins automatically when rotation begins and material is discharged to both sides of the conveyor. The spiral wing pulley is constructed by helically winding a pair of flat steel bars around the wing pulley; having begun at opposite extremities and r:neeting in the center. This design minimizes belt misalignment afld decreases belt wear. It can be supplied in either flat or crown face in most standard sizes.

Elevator

pulleys.

Continental welded steel elevator pulleys are manufactured to close tolerances and are designed to withstand high shock loads. A one piece single disc construction is used in which the rim is continuously welded, on both sides, to the center disc. This assures maximum strength with a minimum of deflection. Several models including split type and heavy duty are available in addition to the standard models. An engineered class is also available to suit any application. The standard range of single disc elevator pulleys incorporate either the 0.0. or the CXT hub and bushing systems. These ensure the greatest possible holding power for single hub applications. The Dodge "taper lock" however is available on request. Shaft size must be given careful consideration in the selection of single disc elevator pulleys since the load is concentrated at one particular point on the shaft. As with conventional welded steel conveyor pulleys, a variety of lagging including plain, herringbone and rough top is available.
