Causes And Preventive Measures Of Belt Edge Wear

Find here details of Flat Top Conveyor Belt. Today we would like to talk about causes and preventive measures of belt edge wear.

The edge wear of the conveyor belt is mainly the friction and wear of the belt edge and the frame when the conveyor belt is deflected. The conveyor belt should run on the centerline of the roller set, but due to defects caused by the manufacture, installation, use, etc. of the conveyor, the conveyor belt often deviates from the centerline. Generally, the conveyor belt allows 5% of the deviation in the width direction. When the deviation is excessive, the conveyor belt is in contact with the roller bracket and the frame to cause edge rubber wear. When the deviation is severe, the conveyor belt may even turn over. Side, such as the radial travel screw head of the drum, the convex part of the sweeper block, or the frame gap is too small, which may cause tearing of the conveyor belt and partial peeling and scratching of the cover rubber.

Here are the precautions shared by Flat Top Conveyor Belt Supplier:

Through the analysis of the wear factors of the conveyor belt, in the design of the belt conveyor, corresponding precautions are taken to extend the life of the conveyor belt. The design is usually optimized from the following five aspects to reduce belt wear.

1. Reasonable choice of conveyor belt

2. Reduce the wear of the conveyor belt on the conveyor belt.

3. Optimization of the structure of the feeding device.

4. Reduce the impact of the receiving process on the conveyor belt.

5. Use electromechanical protection devices.

The application of the conveyor will continue to deepen and the scope of use will be wider and wider, but the investment in construction of the conveyor is large, the manufacturing cost of the conveyor belt is high, and the maintenance workload is large, let us extend the use of conveyors and conveyor belts. The subject of life is continuously researched and the conveyor is more fully used.
