Rulmeca releases stainless steel motorised drum
The powerful, continuous drive for light and medium duty conveyors – the 113LS motorised drum – is described as a hygienic, all-rounder.
IP66 protected, the drum motor offers up to 0.55 KW continuous power from a compact drum diameter of 113 mm and is available with a minimum drum width of 250mm. Easily installed into a conveyor frame they provide low noise conveyance with the capability of reversible operation.
Drum motors eliminate the risk of contamination since the entire drive mechanism is located in a sealed steel shell, resistant to ingress of pollutants and impervious to high pressure cleaning. The ‘sealed for life’ design makes these drives maintenance free and reduces operational costs through less downtime.
The Rulmeca 113 LS drum motor require less energy to run and generates less heat and noise than a traditional gear motor. They have been fitted with various drive options including FDA approved profiled rubber/ PU lagging, stainless steel or polymeric sprockets.
The company says: “We are so confident of the all-round capability of the stainless steel 113LS Motorised Drum we are offering samples for onsite testing.”
