Luff Industries uses Polycap technology in their conveyor-belt roller assembly (US Patent No.: 6, 234, 293 B1). The roller assembly is secured inside a conveyor-belt roller and onto an inner shaft. The roller assembly has a stationary anti-lock shield which protects the rotating exterior surface from coming into contact with the machinery, or outside elements such as debris. A dust shield is also positioned aft of the inti-lock shield to prevent the penetration of small particles and dust into the inner workings of the conveyor-belt roller assembly. The roller assembly also has deep rings in the load-bearing portion for thermal expansion and contraction as well as heat dissipation. Bridging ribs are positioned across the deep rings to greatly increase the strength, and threfore load bearing capacity of the roller asssembly. A tapered labyrinth seal is used so that it can be press locked into position making installation quicker and easier. The main load-bearing component and tapered labyrinth seal can be fabricated, when necessary to meet D level standards of the Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Assoc. (CEMA), from a high strength, heat resistant, 30% glass filled polypropylene material. It can resist up to 305 F / 152 C degrees. This conveyor-belt roller assembly is ideal for use in carrying heavy loads in potentially hazardous environments
In addition to Luff Industries extensive line of products, we offer a unique service that aids in the implementation of our product into almost any competitors design for rollers. With state-of- the -art CNC lathe technology, a retrofit roll can be supplied at a very competitive price and a delivery time which frequently surpasses industry standards for service delivery. Use of our CNC lathes also make it posssible to supply custom made, or standard parts for various types of equipment.
The following is an excerpt from written correspondence received by Luff Industries. 'Some comments made by our Mill Reliability Engineer are as follows': - 'Luff Pulleys are built to a higher standard' - 'Luff pulleys have a slightly higher crown which allows for better tracking' - 'Luff pulleys have a centre disk. Our experience in other parts of the mill has seen several cracked pulleys when a centre disk is not used' - 'Luff pulleys have thicker disks' - 'Once their (Luff Pulleys) are installed we never have to look at them'

Services

Engineering Services
Luff Industries can aid in the design of complete conveyor systems, or individual pulleys. With finite element analysis life and load ratings can be predicted under pre-determined conditions. Other programs such as Auto Cad Drafting and a variety of conveyor design programs are employed for engineering designs. These programs dictate CEMA rating of the idlers, as well as which pulley and shaft sizes are suitable for the desired application.
