PCI, ProCal Innovations LLC products

PCI FC and MC Series drum pulleys are integral to various conveyor system positions such as head positions for driving belts or in tail, snub, bend, and take-up settings for belt tension and redirection. The FC Series features a crown formed in the pulley face, whereas the MC Series employs machining for the crown profile, typically requiring thicker materials for construction. These pulleys are available in diameters ranging from 2 to 12 inches and offer multiple hub styles including Plain Bore, Welded Through Shaft, Keyed Hubs with Setscrews, ER Style Internal Bearings, and more. Aluminum versions provide a lightweight and corrosion-resistant option, suitable when stainless steel is not required. PCI’s Contoured Integral End Disks are designed to enhance pulley life by reducing end disk fatigue, eliminating the need for hub-to-disk welds and optimizing surface stress for flexibility. This design maximizes reliability and conveyor performance across various industrial applications.

The PCI Eradicator Max Return Rolls address common performance issues with traditional return rolls in conveyor systems. Utilizing patented angled wings, these rolls are designed to optimize cleanout by directing particulate away from the roll's central area towards its outer ends. This self-cleaning mechanism not only supports the conveyor belt but also enhances debris protection, extending the unit's operational life. The thicker wings provide a substantial wear surface, and the capability to use larger shaft sizes accommodates bearings with a longer L10 life. This design reduces maintenance needs and downtime. The Eradicator Max Live Shaft and Dead Shaft return rolls can be customized with detailed shafting, mounted bearings, or pedestal mountings, and are available in diameters of 5 and 6 inches. These components can be shipped as ready-to-install assembly kits, which reduce field assembly errors and save installation time.

The PCI Telescoping Take-Up Frame (TS100X3TUFP) is engineered for applications requiring precise tension adjustment and conveyor pulley alignment. This unit is side-mounted, providing the convenience of cantilevering the pulley and bearings outside of the conveyor frame. Made from carbon steel, the frame accommodates pillow block, ball, or roller bearings, demonstrating its versatility for various industrial uses. Incorporating PCI's exclusive indicator pin, the frame enables users to quickly assess available travel in both directions, streamlining maintenance and operation adjustments. Key specifications include a total length of 7.938 inches, lateral bolt hole spacing of 3.563 inches, and a 1.5 inch frame height. The design ensures durability and reliability in demanding material handling environments, making it an essential component for efficient conveyor systems.

PCI Manufacturing provides a comprehensive range of Telescoping Take Up Frames designed for conveyor systems. These frames are essential for maintaining tension, ensuring that conveyor belts run smoothly and efficiently. The frames come in various materials, including carbon steel and stainless steel, to suit different operational environments. Sizes vary significantly with total lengths ranging from around 7.938 inches to 18.688 inches, and all models have a standard width of approximately 6.375 inches. Some frames feature tension indicators for easy monitoring and adjustment. The Telescoping Take Up Frames are resilient, providing reliable tensioning solutions that accommodate varying lengths and widths based on specific operational requirements. This adaptability ensures optimal performance and longevity of the conveyor belts, making them suitable for heavy-duty usage in mining, industrial, and other demanding sectors. CAD files are available for precise integration into existing systems.
