LABORATORY & R&D
Before our rollers, pulleys, or other components operate under extreme conditions, we put them to the test to ensure that what works on paper performs just as reliably in the field.
At ULMA CONVEYOR COMPONENTS, our Laboratory & R&D is where we reduce uncertainty and validate technical decisions before they reach the field.
We validate:
- New developments
- Design modifications
- Specific customer requirements
- Control plans defined within our quality management system
What We Test
We reproduce heavy-duty mining scenarios and analyze how components respond under real operating conditions:Rotational Resistance
Water and Moisture Performance
Protection Against Dust and Fine Particles
Structural Strength and Load Capacity
Dimensional Control
Pulley Load Testing
To validate the pulley’s structural rigidity under real working conditions
Observing these behaviors allows us to fine-tune designs, materials, and geometries with a clear objective: preventing a minor misalignment from turning into unplanned downtime.
The goal is not only to extend component service life. We aim to facilitate maintenance, reduce unexpected interventions, and provide greater control to those managing day-to-day operations.
Equipment and Control
We operate dedicated test benches for load, dynamic stress, and sealing performance, as well as certified dimensional control and measurement systems.
All inspection equipment used complies with the requirements of our quality management system certified under UNE-EN ISO 9001 and is periodically verified with full traceability to international standards.
