Drive Pulley Lagging – The Importance of Proper Technical Analysis and Selection
ABSTRACT A follow-up paper to “Ceramic Lagging – A Good Thing Can Be Costly if Misused” presented at the 2006 annual meeting. The performance of drive pulley lagging has become much more important in recent years due to higher torque drives, higher conveyor belt speeds, and the use of ceramic lagging. The popularity of ceramic pulley lagging […]
Ceramic Lagging- A Good Thing Can Be Costly If Misused
Allen V. Reicks P.E. , Timothy Mess Overland Conveyor Company, Inc., Lakewood, CO ABSTRACT Ceramic/Rubber composite lagging has gained many fans over the last few years by eliminating drive slip and providing a wear resistance pulley surface. However, like many good things, it has been misapplied in some cases and has contributed to costly problems. In order […]
Bonding Adhesion
All ceramic tiles and polyurethane inserts are bonded using a two part system that provides proven 100% rubber tear adhesion. Using purpose built equipment the adhesive system is applied to the ceramic tiles using a dipping process. This guarantees the required coating weight of the primer and adhesive to provide reliable adhesion. Many competitors apply their primer and […]
