Process of Compound Pulley
Mold
The first step in the production process is creating a mold that will be used to shape the pulley.
Casting
Once the mold is ready, the molten metal is poured into it to form the pulley shape.
Raw materials
High-quality materials are used to ensure durability and performance of the pulley.
Production
The pulley is then manufactured using precision techniques to meet specifications.
Testing
Each pulley undergoes rigorous testing to ensure quality and functionality.
Antirust treatment
A special coating is applied to protect the pulley from corrosion and rust.
Separate inspection
Individual inspection is done to guarantee each pulley meets standards.
Marking
Finally, the pulley is marked with details for identification and tracking.
