Belt Conveyor Parts.

A typical belt conveyor consists of a body with a bed to support the belt, a head ( drive) pulley, and a tail ( driven) pulley.

The drive pulley is usually larger than the tail pulley to give a larger contact area between the belt and the pulley , therefore more traction

The drive pulley is driven by a a reducer ( Gearmotor) either directly mounted on the shaft of the pulley or through sprockets and chains.
