Improve material transfer with Caterpillar engineered tail sections, which are designed to receive discharges from a variety of haulage equipment. Two common designs are the in-line and off-set tail section, both of which are designed with a heavy-duty, rigid loading frame. Intermediate and tail loading sections offer either impact resistant idlers or EXALON® impact slider beds.

Keeping in mind some of the severe conditions at customer mine sites, Cat Pulleys are engineered for strength and reliability. They perform reliably, driving conveyors with installed power in excess of 3750 kW (5,000 hp). Caterpillar offers a line of Turbo-Disc and T-Bottom pulleys that are designed based on conveyor requirements. Turbo-Disc pulleys are designed for tensions up to 53.4 kN (12,000 lbf), while T-Bottom are designed for tensions greater than 53.4 kN (12,000 lbf).
For conventional designed conveyor pulleys, the areas most prone to failure are locations where circumferential welds are utilized with hub-to-end disc welds being the most common failure. The machined end-discs of the pulley require fewer welds and provides fewer areas for failure. Solid steel plates make the hub integral to the end-disc and all high stress-concentration welds are minimized or eliminated. Keyless locking elements in conjunction with Turbo Disc or T-Bottom designs completely remove ‘Bellows Stress’ from each end disc. In both Turbo-Disc and T-Bottom designs, the end-discs are shaped to ensure optimum distribution of stresses throughout the end-disc and the pulley.
