Benefits & Features

Conveyor Drives

    • Alignment free or parallel shaft design options
    • Alignment-free design gives the following benefits - Ease of setup and installation - Ease of transportation in and around site - Narrower overall drive width - Universal mounting - left-hand or right-hand mounting - Reduced operating maintenance - Up to 447 kW (600 hp) per motor
    • Parallel shaft benefit: accommodates larger motor sizes
    • Supports both mechanical and electrical technologies (Fluid Couplings or Variable Frequency Drive [VFD], etc.)
    • Engineered class pulleys

Remote Discharges

    • Floor-mounted or roof-hung configurations
    • Remote A-frame design
    • Adjustable boom design
    • Designed for multiple transfer points
    • Includes engineered class pulley(s)
    • Can be used with backstop for uphill applications
    • Can incorporate driven discharge pulley
    • Can be used with uni-directional transfer chute

Belt Take-Ups/Storage Units

    • Cat take-ups/storage units apply accurate and very responsive belt tension
    • Various designs available to meet customer needs - Electric winch design - Hydraulic cylinder design - Active travel length/belt storage per design requirements
    • Each take-up pulley is a tension-specific, engineered class pulley
    - Designed for the maximum force each cylinder or winch can provide - Eliminates any weak links in the entire take-up system

Loading Sections

    • Cat loading sections are designed and built for efficient transfer of extracted materials
    • Two impact idler designs: in-line and off-set
    • Intermediate and tail loading sections offer either impact idlers or impact slider beds
    • Rigid, heavy-duty engineered loading frame

Engineered Class Pulleys

    • Cat engineered class pulleys are each designed to meet the specific power and tension needs of the conveyor system
    • Two design options: Turbo-Disc and T-Bottom
    • Design features:
    - Profiled end-discs machined from solid steel plate eliminating all welds in areas of high-stress concentrations - Keyless locking elements eliminate the undesirable hub-to-disc weld and pre-stressing of the end-disc during assembly - Proprietary welding techniques ensuring complete penetration and fewer felds - Rim machined to achieve target concentricity - Static balancing - Standard three year pulley warranty
