Pulley with internal bearings

Advantages of the internal bearing pulley design

• Lower weight - this means less material, lower transportation costs, lower load on the supporting structures and a bit simpler assembling process;
   
• Lower weight of rotating parts and consequently better energy efficiency, reduction of wear, lower belt tension forces during acceleration (start/stop) and lower load on the bearings of the pulley;
   
• More compact design due to reduced shaft length and therefore less space required;
   
• Efficient seals ensure longer bearing service life;
   
• A more cost-effective design compared to a similar pulley with external bearings can generally be achieved. This is made possible by the fact that no bearing units and clamping sets are required and more cost-effective - although no less efficient - seals from our own production are used.
