New TM113.1G Drum Motor Solves Guided Belt Problems

samuel Kelly — Tue, 14 Nov 2017 20:01:33 +0000

Southquip Industrial is pleased to release the Axis TM113.1G drum motor variant to the market. At the request of our clients a solution was required for providing an economic solution to drive belts with vee guide tracking profiles. By redesigning our TM113 drum motor we have incorporated K17 Vee Grooves into the endhousings. This also allows double bearing reinforcement for high load resistance. Guided belts are commonly used in applications where lateral forces affect belt guidance or conveyor straightness can’t be guaranteed. Previously the lagging of the drum motor was required to achieve a similar result. With the new TM113.1G design there is no heat dissipation issues as the drum shell is in constant contact with the belt.

Advantages and Benefits:

Eliminate belt tracking issues
Simple slider bed conveyor construction
Suited to applications with laterial force on belt

Applications:

Portable and mobile conveyors
Conveyors in vertical position
Animal restraint conveyors
Conveyors without access to tracking mechanisms

Electroplated Drumshells Reduce Corrosion

samuel Kelly — Wed, 25 Oct 2017 20:35:02 +0000

When looking for an economic conveyor drive solution for many applications mild steel/aluminium construction drum motors are suitable. If you require additional corrosion protection we can offer the option of electroplating of a mild steel drum shell to protect from rust and corrosion. Situations where this is beneficial is where water and humidity is present but sanitation isn’t critical. Also on conveyors which may sit idle during seasonal work stops the drumshell developing surface rust.

Vegetable packing conveyors
Fruit packing conveyors
Mushroom industry conveyors
Portable outdoor conveyors
