Alternative Designs

Most drum motors can be fitted with back stop non-reversing bearings to prevent belts in inclined conveyors from rolling back or with electro-magnetic brakes for reversible inclined conveyors or for quick stopping. Incremental encoders can also be integrated into the rotor bearings to provide a closed loop control system for tracking, positioning and accurate tracing of the product on the belt.
