In this paper different component of conveyor pulley (shell, end disk, hub, and shaft) failure and the stresses generated on them are discussed. The basic idea is to present the state of work about the conveyor pulley design analysis. The outer diameter of conveyor pulley to shaft diameter is a measure of the flexible nature of the end disc. This ratio was approximately 6 to 8 by Leo J Laughlin [1].If the ratio of outer diameter of conveyor pulley to shaft diameter smaller, then conveyor pulley end disc will tend to be rigid. If the ratio of outer diameter of conveyor pulley to shaft diameter larger then conveyor pulley end disc will tend to be flexible. So conveyor pulley diameter to shaft diameter ratio in the range of five to eight then their stresses were fairly low. The paper was mainly focused on the improvement in the design and dimension of conveyor pulley which helpful for computational level.
