Take-Ups
with Hydraulic Assist

IEM designs and manufactures heavy duty take-up assemblies with hydraulic assist.

These units are used on high tension belt feeders and apron feeders. Threaded rods with captive nuts are used to maintain the shafts in the adjusted position. Hydraulic cylinders are used to position the bearing/shaft in the correct location and then the screw is locked to hold that position. The hydraulic cylinder is subsequently de-pressurized.

Two styles are available: Center pull with special    bearing carrier Bottom pull allowing use of    standard pillow block. IEM can provide a manual power unit for mounting on the feeder. Power unit is complete with hand pump, three way selector valve, pressure gauge and hoses. Cylinders can be selected left, right or both at the same time for adjustment.
