Engineered for applications operating around-the- clock, the double tube design offers in- creased stability, longer wear life and better bearing protection. Also new for visitors at MINExpo, Su- perior plans to display a group of conveyor pulleys from its mine and super duty col- lections, Mine Duty Pulleys. Engineered using special software, these failsafe pul- leys are virtually tested for strength in an application before a single plate is cut at the factory. Specifications include pulley diameters up to 120-in. (3,000 mm), belt widths of the same and shaft diameters up to 24 in. (600 mm). Superior said its Core Systems Design program offers drive and tail pulley as- semblies custom-engineered for a specif- ic application.
