Pulley can be shifted. V-belt step pulleys are the most common way that drill presses deliver a range of spindle speeds. Pulley A pulley is a wheel on an axle or shaft that is designed to support movement and change of direction of a taut cable or belt, or transfer of power between the shaft and cable or belt. In the case of a pulley supported by a frame or shell that does not transfer power to a shaft, but is used to guide the cable or exert a force, the supporting shell is called a block, and the pulley may
Fly system used for spot rigging, where they are often equipped with swivel-pivots to divert lines across a large range of angles. Tension blocks are single-sheave blocks located at the lower end of the arbor guide track, beneath the arbor. The operating line is reeved through the tension block from the bottom of the arbor through the rope lock. Tension blocks typically ride vertically along the arbor guide system tracks, instead of being fixed, to allow for variation in the length of the operating line. Counterweights are heavy objects that are used to balance the lineset loads in a fly system. In
