Heavy Duty Carbon Steel Forgings Upper Drive Shaft Forgings For Conveyor Systems

Heavy-Duty Carbon Steel Upper Drive Shaft Forgings for Conveyor Systems. Heavy-Duty Carbon Steel Upper Drive Shaft Forgings are engineered to transfer power from motors to conveyor head pulleys in demanding material handling systems. Manufactured from medium-carbon steel (e.g., 1045, C45) via open-die forging, these components withstand high torsional loads, abrasive environments, and continuous operation in mining, ports, and bulk handling facilities.

Key Characteristics

1. High Torsional Strength

   • Resists heavy rotational forces during continuous operation.

2. Impact-Resistant Design

   • Absorbs shock loads from sudden starts/stops.

3. Abrasion-Resistant Surface

   • Tolerates abrasive material contact in conveyor environments.

4. Alignment Stability

   • Maintains precise pulley and bearing positioning.

5. Corrosion Protection Ready

   • Surface-prepared for effective coatings.

Primary Applications

• Mining Operations: Primary crusher feed conveyors

• Port Facilities: Ship loader boom conveyors

• Coal Handling Plants: Tripper car conveyor drives

• Quarry Systems: Radial stacker rotation drives

• Bulk Terminals: Shuttle conveyor power transmission

The steel forgings production flow:

raw material inspection → unloading → inspection → preheating → forging → heat treatment → inspection → rough machining → non-destructive testing → inspection → packaging → delivery.
