傳動滾筒是傳遞動力的重要部件，滾筒有光面、膠面。膠面形狀又可分成光面膠，人字膠及菱形膠，以適應不同工藝需求。

傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)是帶式輸(shu)送機傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)動(dong)(dong)(dong)力(li)(li)的(de)(de)主要部件。作為單(dan)點驅動(dong)(dong)(dong)方式來講，可(ke)(ke)分成單(dan)滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)及雙滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)。單(dan)滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)多用(yong)于功率(lv)不(bu)太大(da)的(de)(de)輸(shu)送機上(shang)，功率(lv)較大(da)的(de)(de)輸(shu)送機可(ke)(ke)采用(yong)雙滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)，其特(te)點是結構緊湊，還可(ke)(ke)增加(jia)圍包角以(yi)增加(jia)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)所(suo)能(neng)傳遞(di)的(de)(de)牽(qian)引(yin)力(li)(li)。使用(yong)雙滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)時可(ke)(ke)以(yi)采用(yong)多電機分別傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)，可(ke)(ke)以(yi)利用(yong)齒輪傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)裝置使兩滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)同速運(yun)轉。如雙滾(gun)(gun)(gun)筒(tong)(tong)傳動(dong)(dong)(dong)仍不(bu)需要牽(qian)引(yin)力(li)(li)需要，可(ke)(ke)采用(yong)多點驅動(dong)(dong)(dong)方式。
