order to ensure a safe accumulation without pressure of the units.

DRUM MOTORS
EASE OF INSTALLATION: A Rulmeca Drum Motor is the ideal method of driving conveyor belts. A totally anclosed
unit, with the motor, gearbox and all working parts hermetically sealed within the outer shell.
Rulmeca drum motors are much faster and easier to install because
they are just one component with all included, instead of the
traditional multiple components motor transmission systems.

SPACE-SAVING DESIGN:
With the electrical drive, bearings and gearbox enclosed inside the
shell, Rulmeca drum motors are very compact and therefore require
less space and reduced footprint. The more centred weight balance
increases the conveyor stability and therefore safety.

DESIGNED FOR THE TOUGHEST CONDITIONS:

The Rulmeca drum motors are designed to operate perfectly even in
