Non-Drive Pulley (no torque or overhung load): The {ollowing selection procedure is used (see Fig. 2). ‘Step 4. Determine the pounds parinch width (PIN) by dvding bolttension(T, by batt width, Compare this PW tothe values lstec in Table using applicable pulley diameter and arc of contact. If calculated PIW is higher than the pulley rating, select a pulley ciamater having the required rating ‘Step 2. After referring to the general instructions in Section 3, determine R, the resultant pulley load from Section 4.1, Using the pulley diameter determined in Step 1 and an estimated shat dlamoter. ‘Step 3. Select a shaft ciameter from Table 2 under Ratings For Pulley And Shaft Combinations using R, the appropriate pulley face width, and dimension L. The pulley and sheft rating should be equal to or greater than R. Step 4. Rofer to Table 3 to make sure pulley diemeter, face width, and shaft diameter selected aro available. If 1! ‘combination is not available It will be necessary to go to a larger pulley or shat. Example: 24" x 44" bend pulley, 42" belt, 4000 pounds tension, 108° are of contact, L= 14", Step 1. Atension of 4000 pounds divided by 2 42" belt width =95 PIV. In Table 1 for 24” diameter and 110° arcof contac, an allowable PNY of 175 pounds is shown. Therefore, @ 24 pulley diameter is acceptable, Step 2. Pulley and shaft weight W is estimated from a ‘manufacturer's catalog to be 800 pounds. Resultant load R Step 3. In Table 2 under 44” face width, nots that 2 3-15/16" diameter shaft witha rating of 8400 pounds is required for an R value of 7130 pounds and L of 14" Step 4. In Table 3 for a 24" dia 15/16" shaft diameter is availabe. 5 by 44" face pulley, a ‘43 Drive Pulley (no overhung load): The following ‘selection procedure Is used (see Fig. 2). ‘Step 4. Determine the PIW by dividing belt tension (T,) by. belt width. Compare this PIW to the values listed in Table 4 Using applicable pulley diameter and arc of contact. If the ‘caleslated PIW is higher than the pulley rating, select a pulley diameter having the required rating ‘Step 2. After referring to the general instructions in Section 3, determine R, the resultant pulley load from Section 4. 1, using the pulley diameter determined in Step 1 and an ‘estimated shaft dlameter. ‘Step 3. Select a shaft diameter from Table 2 Ratings For Pulley and Shaft Combinations using R, the appropriate pulley face width and dimension L. The pulley and shaft rating should bbe equel to or greater than R. ‘Step 4. Determine shaft diameter considering combined bending and torsional stresses. To estimate the moment arm, use A from Table 4: ‘The formula given in. ANSI B 108.1M-1985 Is: For pulley and shat applications within the scope of Standard B105.1, the recommended values are: D_ = Shatt Diameter, inches FS. = Factor of Safety = 1.5 8, = Corrected shaft fatigue limit =k, kk, kk, Kk,“ S* Where: = surface factor = 0.8 for machined shaft = size factor = (D)*" see Table 6 ‘elabily factor = 0.897 = temperature factor = 1.0 for-70°F to + 400°F = duty oycle factor = 1.0 provided cyclic stresses do not exceed 8° = fatigue stress concentration factor: Steel Profil ‘rneated [less than 200 BHN) 0.63 ‘Quenched and drawn (over 200 BHN) 050 ‘miscellaneous factor = 1.0 for normal conveyor service 29,000 psi for SAE 1018 = 41,000 psi for SAE 1048 = 47,500 pst for SAE 4140 (annealed) (S7 = 0.5 tabulated utimate tonsii strength) = Yield Strangih = 32,000 psifor SAE 1018 45,000 psi for SAE 1045, 60,500 ps! for SAE 4140 (annealed) = Bending moment (inch-pounds) = RxA 2 = Torsional moment (pound-inches) =, x, where r= pulley radius Ifthe shaft diameter found in Step 4is larger than the ciameter in Stop 3, use i fits smaler, use the shaft diameter found in ‘Step 3 ‘Stop 5. Refer to Table 3 o make sure pulley diameter, face width, and shaft diameter selected are available the combination is not available it will be necassary to go to a largar pulley or shaft 4 Example: ‘20° x 38" pulley, 36° belt, 7100 pounds tight side tension, 2740 pounds slack side tension, 215° arc of contact, L = 18, ‘shaft material - SAE 1018 annealed and machined stee! with profiled keyways. ‘Step 1. Atension of 7100 pounds divided by a 36" belt width = 197 PIW. In Table 1 for 30" diamater,intorpolating batween 210" and 220° arc of contact, a value of 318 PIW etermined, Therefore, a 30" diameter pulley is acceplabl ‘Step 2. Pulley and shaft weight W Is estimated from a ‘manufacturer's catalog to be $00 pounds. Resultant load R ‘8440 pounds. See Fig. 1(a) for this example ‘Stop 3.
