Drives for bulk materials
Drive for continuous conveyors
For bulk material transport, Nord Drivesystems offers drive systems that can be individually controlled for precise and dynamic feed control. Belt conveyors for transporting piece goods and bulk materials in mining, mechanical engineering or plastics and paper recycling have a circumferential belt made of rubber or plastic as well as tension members for stability.
The conveyor belt is deflected by at least two pulleys, whereby at least one pulley is driven and sets the belt in motion through wrap-around friction. The durable and low-maintenance Maxxdrive industrial gearboxes, in which the bearing points and sealing surfaces of the block housing are manufactured in a single clamping operation, are suitable for large, high-capacity belt conveyors. A two-stage helical bevel gearbox has been added to the new Maxxdrive XT generation. pb
