Belt Technologies has developed the TruTension™ tension indicator pulley, an innovative product unique to the belt conveyor market that precisely measures belt tension on conveyor systems.
The TruTension™ Pulley is a complete assembly for simplified installation into your conveyor system. The operation consists of a pulley rotating about a dead shaft through two radial bearings. Tension sensors are incorporated into each end of the assembly, which monitor belt tension on a display through a transducer mounted on one end of the shaft. This system allows continuous monitoring of belt tension for critical applications.
Users will no longer need to build separate systems to measure steel belt tension or find that a belt was destroyed from over tensioning. With the TruTension™ Pulley, a direct readout of tension information is available continuously. TruTension™ Pulleys are also manufactured in the United States of America.
