Wire rope sheave with bearings:
Sheave welding MT UT test
AUTO welding or forging
CNC sheave groove

The Wire Rope Sheave is a core transmission component specifically designed for lifting and traction systems. It guides the movement of the wire rope through precision grooves to ensure the stability and safety of load transfer. It is widely used in various fields such as port machinery, wind power equipment, mining operations, and shipbuilding engineering. It is a key component for improving mechanical efficiency and extending the service life of the wire rope.

2）Wire rope sheave(steel heavy duty wire rope pulley)description

1. Sheave Range of size available ： Φ250mm~Φ3000mm

2. Sheave Plate Material : 45 ; Q345B Q345D; Q345E (used for -40℃）and so on or according clients request for sheaves

3. Sheave groove :

a. Groove profiles : according client request and sheaves grooves were manufacture by CNC .

b. groove heat treatment by intermediate frequency quenching , hardness Min. HB350-370 and deep around ≥2.5mm . (different material can getting different hardness )

c. Groove MT test after heat treatment

d. Sheave welding MT test

e. Groove optimization technology: The surface of the groove is polished, which reduces the friction loss of the wire rope by up to 30% and extends the service life of the rope.

f. Wide range of specifications adaptation: It supports the matching of wire ropes from 3/8″ to 1/2″ and provides multi – groove designs such as circular and flat types to adapt to complex working scenarios.

4. Sheave welding process according WPQR (WPS) AWD1.1 ，welding line can MT and UT .

5.Diversity of application scenarios:

a. Heavy industry: Suitable for high – load scenarios such as port cranes, shield machine transmission systems, and steel mill continuous casting equipment.

b. Adaptability to emerging industries: Modern industrial scenarios requiring high – precision transmission, such as wind turbine tower hoisting and new – energy vehicle production lines.
