Rulmeca Pulleys in Vietnam Motorized Pulleys Power Concrete Conveyors Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys Drive Belt Conveyors to build the Se San 3 Dam on the Se San River in Vietnam.
The Se San Hydropower Project is a huge, impressive
project requiring many innovative machinery ideas to build the
remotely-located dam.
One of the most advanced engineering ideas is the
"Dual-Drive RULMECA Motorized Pulley" concept. Two 50 HP Motorized
Pulleys drive each of the four 150 ft long conveyors, which are suspended
from large free-swinging cranes.

conveyors are suspended from two free-swinging cranes.
Thanks
to the compact and reliable design of RULMECA Motorized Pulleys, the
conveyor construction was very light. There are no torsional forces because
the RULMECA Motorized Pulleys are located between the conveyor trusses,
giving the free-swinging conveyors excellent balance.

Motorized Pulleys are located between the conveyor trusses, eliminating all
overhung loads.
To
provide balance and power, each conveyor is equipped with two RULMECA type
800M 50 HP Motorized Pulleys, one at the head and one at the tail. RULMECA
Motorized Pulleys enable this kind of conveyor design to haul 1,400 tph of
wet concrete.

Since belt drives are mounted in each conveyor head and tail, Rulmeca
Motorized Pulleys balanced the conveyors in two axes of rotation.
This advanced technique brings the future to now.
