WILMINGTON, N.C. —Rulmeca Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of bulk handling idlers and pulleys, recently produced a movie explaining the company's Motorized Pulleys.The second in a series of movies, this 5 minute presentation explains how Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys (formerly known as JOKI pulleys) offer superior performance in abrasive and corrosive environments. Available in DVD format and downloadable from the company’s website, the movie also presents an animated explanation of how the company's regreasable labyrinth seals work.
“This short video will help plant designers and managers to quickly grasp how our Motorized Pulley can help them and will be invaluable to our distributors as they present this technology to plant operators,” said Rulmeca Corporation President, Mike Gawinski. The movie shows how the drive’s sealing system prevents ingress of dust and liquid contamination in environments such as salt mining, coal mining and preparation, ore mining and processing, ocean dredging, fertilizer production, and fossil-fuel power production. The hermetically sealed enclosure increases system reliability while the self-lubricating gearbox design reduces costly maintenance expense.
The presentation highlights special options for abrasive and corrosive environments including labyrinth seals, thicker paint, nickel plating, stainless steel, and ceramic lagging. Rulmeca Motorized Pulley diameters range from 8.5" to 31.5" with powers from 0.5 to 180 HP.
Maintenance is minimal, requiring an oil change only every 10,000 operating hours or five years of single shift operation.
