What is the Role of Conveyor Drum Pulley?

Conveyor pulley manufacturers company use conveyor drum pulley with conveyor system to drive conveyor belt. Tension and friction between pulley and belt decide the quality of conveyor belting system.


What is the formula to determine speed of a driven pulley or sprocket using RPM and Diameter?

For a pulley, it is driver RPM x driver diameter = driven RPM x driven diameter. Keep in mind that the diameter you should use is the diameter where the belt is riding in the pulley. For instance, an A belt in an AB pulley will ride lower in the pulley than it would in an A pulley. For sprockets, the formula is the same, but replace the diameter with # teeth. It looks like this. driver rpm x # teeth of driver sprocket = driven RPM x # teeth of driven sprocket


Would you use a fixed pulley or movable pulley to lift a heavy load?

Fixed if it weighed as less than you, but a movable pulley wouldn't be helpful here. You'd be best with a pulley with multiple supporting ropes.


Will the force applied to lift a brick reduce if you use pulleys?

yes, pulley will help IF not the if YOU USE COMBINE TWO OR MORE PULLEYS. Yes, using a pulley or a system of pulleys will reduce the force needed to lift a brick (or anything). HOWEVER the distance that the rope (or whatever effects the pulley system) has to now travel further so that the energy required to lift the brick through an equal height is always the same.

Which belt are you referring to? If the accessory belts perform as follows. The front (bumper facing belt must be completely flexed while tightening the two pulley screws found on the onlu pulley in the front belt system. This requires downward pressure. The engine facing belt has a tension pulley which throuhg the use of a prying device can be flexed and tightened with ease.

Is a stroller a pulley?

If you are refering to the drive-train, then no, it is not a belt and pulley system. It is a gear and chain drive though the two systems are virtually identical, with both making use of mechanical advantage to deliver more usable power. The maths behind the two systems are essentially the same bar the fact that the belts on a pulley can slip and stretch and unless the belt is toothed you cannot use the number of teeth on the sprockets/gears to determine gear ratio.


What is a tension pulley on a Pontiac Sunfire 2.2 L Engine?

How do you replace the alternator belt on a 1997 Mazda Protege?

Turn the belt inside out. you need to get it under the power steering belt and to the other side of the pulley. You can use a crescent wrench to turn the pulley and get the belt under the other one. Turn the belt back right side out. loosen the alternator bolt and place the belt around the alternators pulley. Tighten the alternator bolt.


How do you tighten a fan belt on a 1971 volkswagen beetle?

Fan belt tension is set with shims. Look at your generator. There's a nut (21mm) on the shaft, and on the back half of the pulley (the one away from you) there are two slots. You stick a screwdriver in one of the slots to hold the pulley, and remove the nut with a 21mm wrench or socket. Slip the front half of the pulley off, and you're ready to start adjusting. There are, hopefully, two or three shims between the two halves of the pulley, and two or three more under the little cone that's between the nut and the pulley. To make the belt tighter, remove a shim from between the pulley halves and put it under the cone. To make it looser, put one of the shims under the cone between the pulley halves. If you don't have any shims between the pulley halves, you must replace the belt. To reassemble the car, have the shims you're going to use on the generator shaft. Loosely loop the belt over the shaft, then put the front pulley half back on, followed by the spare shims, the cone and the nut. Start tightening the nut without holding the pulley stationary. As you tighten, the belt will move into position. You want the belt to have about 1/2" of play halfway between the pulleys.


How do you remove a pulley?

To remove a pulley, you typically need to use a pulley puller tool. First, release tension on the belt connected to the pulley. Then, follow the specific instructions for your vehicle or equipment to use the pulley puller to gently remove the pulley without damaging surrounding components.

How to adjust the belt tension on a car?

To adjust the belt tension on a car, locate the tensioner pulley and use a wrench to turn it in the direction that loosens the belt. Once the belt is loose enough, adjust the tension by moving the pulley or bracket that holds it in place. Tighten the belt by turning the tensioner pulley in the opposite direction. Check the tension by pressing down on the belt, it should have a slight give but not be too loose.
