Customised conveyor pulleys make materials handling easier

Brain Industries Australian-made Conveyor Pulley

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our custom made conveyor pulleys make materials handling easier. Whether its a drive or non-drive or a deadshaft pulley, we’ll keep your conveyor belts moving efficiently.

We design and manufacture your pulley to guarantee reliability and performance. We use certified mild steel plate. Welds are ultrasonically and magnetic particle tested in accordance with Australian standards.

We also test, repair and refurbish pulleys.

Save $ – Refurbish your pulley

 

 

 

 

 

Save time and money with our Pulley Refurbishment Service.

When overhauling your pulley our expert team will do non-destructive testing of the pulley shaft and shell and re-machine the pulley if it is required. With a complete strip down and cleaning of all parts and new lagging, your pulley will be good as new. As well as testing and certification, you’ll also receive supply of Manufacturer’s Data Reports.

We prepare a Refurbishment Viability Report with our quote. So, contact us today.

Brainwave! If you’re doing scheduled maintenance or a scheduled shutdown on your conveyor system, check if you need to refurbish or replace your pulley.

Polyurethane bumper bars improve safety & efficiency & last longer

Impact-resistant polyurethane bumper bars improve safety and operating efficiency. They also have a longer service life, and are up to 40% lighter than OEM design.

Prevent shock-related injuries to machine operators from minor collisions of machines during the loading process. Prevent unplanned machine shut-downs caused by “tripping” of sensors during minor impacts.

We manufacture FRAS polyurethane bumper bars for underground coal machinery such as continuous miners, shuttle cars, multi-bolters, man transporters, feeder breakers and dolly cars.

Prevent carry back on conveyor belts – Vee Return Ploughs

 

 

 

Vee return ploughs prevent carry back of coal slurry between a conveyor belt and the tail roller. Carry back is common if belt cleaners are not working as well as they should. The plough provides an additional measure and can eliminate the requirement for flat return rollers at the boot end.

Our FRAS polyurethane vee return ploughs come in various belt widths. There’s an optional stainless steel water spray system for dust suppression.

Hiring a Brain Mudskipper Pump is a cost effective way to pump sludges and slurries
