Melbourne Machinery offer a diverse range of pulleys including :
SPA, SPB, SPC, sections
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 groove
The belt / pulley combination is used to transfer power from the driving component such as a motor or gearmotor to the application. Applications include conveyor systems, crushers, compressors, process lines and general speed reduction. Belts and pulleys are well suited to high-speed applications in comparison to chain and sprockets, which are better suited to high torque applications.
