PulleyDrive build step 1: select your diameter, with six pulley sizes from 58 to 215 mm

Understanding PulleyDrive

The PulleyDrive program gives food processors a configure-to-order system: PulleyDrive provides a swift, simple path to acquiring hygienic direct-drive technology that accelerates project timelines and minimizes costs.

Step 2: select the face width, from 12 to 24 inches

What Is PulleyDrive?

PulleyDrive is a configure-to-order system that lets you design and order direct-drive pulleys built from pre-engineered components already in stock. Instead of starting from scratch, you can select from proven MagDrive configurations, specify your belt or sprocket type, and have a production-ready unit shipped in as little as 10 days from One Motion’s facility in Rogers, Arkansas.

In short: It’s an offer for OEMs and end users to pick from pre-engineered building blocks of the MagDrive line — enabling faster quotes, shorter lead times, and guaranteed compatibility with standard conveyor designs.

The PulleyDrive program allows OEMs and end users to fast-track their component sourcing without compromising on quality or functionality. Learn more here.
