Summary table

New enlarged product

range
Rulmeca have just launched a product
range, which has been reviewed, enlarged
and up-grated to meet customer
requirements.
In this connection, it was necessary to rename all product descriptions to secure an
easier choice of the right pulley for the
right application.
The NEW product range offers three
different loading performances:
- L for Light-duty
- M for Medium-duty
- H/HD for High-duty
In most cases you have a choice.
Therefore, it is important to notice the
differences to choose the right type of
pulley for the right application based on
estimated belt tension (radial load) =
T1+T2. The actual radial load MUST be
LESS than the max. allowable radial load
shown in this catalogue.

Sea-dredged aggregates working in wet, salty and aggressive environment! IP66/67

sealing a MUST often with re-greasable seals!

Be aware of increased belt tensions using

multi-ply thick heavy belts and/or larger
belt widths.
If you do not find the belt tension needed
in the wanted diameter, you might have to
choose a larger one.
The three above loading performances
offers a product range suitable for any
type of application whether working
under/with
regular and constant operating
conditions
TOUGH and IRREGULAR working
conditions
irregular and extreme loadings in
BRUTAL conditions.
For further information, please open our
web-site - www.rulmeca.com - or contact
your nearest Rulmeca distributor.
The latest Rulmeca Motorized Pulley
catalogue is available
Recycling application benefiting from IP66/67 sealing systems avoiding internal damage
from audio or video cassette tapes and aggressive ambient environments containing air or
gas of high Ph-values.

Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys: a name with deep roots

The Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys presented in this catalogue have a long history to tell.
It goes back to the 1950s, when the product was developed in Germany and Denmark.
Eventually, through a merging process the German Frder- und Antriebstechnik Aschersleben GmbH and the Danish John Kirkegaard
Maskinfabrik A/S became partners of the Interroll Group.
From the early 1990s the manufacturing of all Interrolls BULK Motorized Pulleys were centralised in Aschersleben, Germany.
In July 2003 the production facility in Aschersleben, Germany, where Motorized Pulleys have been developed and produced for almost
half a century, was purchased by Rulli Rulmeca Spa Italy, along with the entire BULK Business Unit.
It is from this plant, today renamed RULMECA GERMANY GmbH, that the JOKI tradition for quality and reliability will be continued under
the RULMECA brand.
It is thanks to this long history that Rulmeca can be ranked as a very experienced manufacturer of BULK Motorized Pulleys offering the
world largest product range.

features and Benefits of Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys

Purpose-built design
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley has been
specifically designed for belt conveyors.
Totally enclosed
The motor, gearbox and bearings are totally enclosed and sealed inside a steel shell;
therefore they are unlikely to fail due to
harmful environmental conditions such as
water, dust, grit chemicals, grease, oil, etc.
Space saving design
Because the drive unit and the bearings
are mounted inside the Motorized Pulley
shell, it takes up much less room than a
conventional drive. No need for costly
extras like chains, v-belts, couplings,
bearings, support structure and special
guarding.
Safety
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is probably
one of the safest drives available because
the motor is completely enclosed and the
external shafts are always stationary. The
only moving external parts are the
Motorized Pulley shell and bearing housings.
Low purchasing and installation cost
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is quite
often less expensive than exposed drives
because it has fewer parts.
Therefore less conveyor design and parts
purchasing costs. It is also much quicker
and easier to install - certainly less than a
quarter of the time taken to fit an exposed
system.

Low maintenance cost

The end user also benefits from the Rulmeca
Motorized Pulley, because it requires no
maintenance other than the recommended
oil change every 20,000 hours and oil seal
change every 30,000 hours. In other words
almost 10 years between oil changes based
on an 8- hour/day working week. Synthetic
oil can be specified to extend the service
range up to 50,000 hours.
Efficiency
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley usually has
a much higher efficiency from electrical
motor to shell (Pulley face) than conventional drives, because it has fewer frictional
losses, and therefore efficiencies of up to
95-97% can be achieved.
Cleanliness
Because the Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is
hermetically sealed it cannot contaminate
any conveying materials such as food,
electrical components, plastics and other
materials that must be kept perfectly clean
during handling.

switch. This heat sensitive switch is built into

the motor windings to protect the motor from
overheating. The thermal protector must be
connected to a normally closed circuit.
Weight saving and distribution
Often the Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is
lighter than conventional drives and often
it is possible to reduce the cost of the
conveyor structure, because the weight is
evenly distributed within the conveyor
frame.
Variable frequency converter
All Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys with 3 phase
motors are easily controlled by variable
frequency converters working in the 15 Hz
to 65 Hz frequency range. See Technical
Precautions in the catalogue.
Fewer parts
A Rulmeca Motorized Pulley consists of the
Motorized Pulley and two fixing brackets!
Exposed drives can require up to eight or
more separate components, most of which
have to be purchased from different suppliers or custom manufactured.

Aesthetic appearance
If installed correctly the Rulmeca
Motorized Pulley always looks good. Due
to its compact size and smooth lines,
quite often the Motorized Pulley is out of
sight, because it is hidden within the conveyor frame.

Low noise
Thanks to the totally sealed enclosure and
high quality gears the Rulmeca Motorized
Pulley runs almost at a whisper a very
important fact in todays modern factory
environments.

Thermal protection
All three phase Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys
are protected by our thermal protection
