What is a sheave on a pulley?
- A sheave is a wheel or roller with a groove used with a belt or rope to change the direction or point of application of a pulling force.
- It is typically used in conjunction with ropes, belts, or cables to provide mechanical advantage.
- Sheaves are commonly found in pulley systems to lift heavy loads or transmit power efficiently.
- They are essential components in various industrial and mechanical applications.
- Sheaves come in different sizes and materials to suit specific requirements.
What are sheaves used for?
- Changing the direction of a belt or rope
- Increasing mechanical advantage
- Transmitting power efficiently
- Lifting heavy loads
- Supporting and guiding belts or ropes
- Reducing wear on belts and ropes
Process of Sheave Pulley
Sheave Pulleys undergo several processes to ensure quality and durability:
