Conveyor belt maintenance and storage methods

Correctly storing and maintaining conveyor belts can effectively increase their service life, so how should we do it?

1. During transportation and storage, the Conveyor Belt should be kept clean, kept away from direct sunlight or soaked in rain and snow, kept away from acids, alkalis, oils, organic solvents and other substances, and kept one meter away from heating devices.

2. During storage, the warehouse temperature should be maintained between 18-40°C, and the relative humidity should be maintained between 50-80%.

3. During storage, the product should be placed in rolls and should not be folded. During storage, the product should be turned once a quarter.

4. Conveyor belts of different types and specifications should not be connected together. The joints should be glued as much as possible.

5. The type, structure, specifications, and number of layers of the conveyor belt should be reasonably selected according to the conditions of use.

6. The running speed of the conveyor belt should generally not be greater than 2.5 meters/second. For materials with large lumps and abrasiveness and the unloading device using fixed pears, the speed should be as low as possible.

7. The relationship between the diameter of the conveyor's transmission drum and the conveyor belt cloth layer, the matching of the transmission drum and the reversing drum, and the requirements for the roller groove angle should be reasonably selected according to the design regulations of the conveyor.

8. The feeding direction should follow the running direction of the conveyor belt. In order to reduce the impact of the material on the belt when it falls, a chute should be used to reduce the falling distance of the material; the distance between the rollers should be shortened in the belt receiving section and the buffer roller should be used to prevent material leakage. , the belt should adopt a soft and moderate baffle plate to prevent the baffle plate from being too hard and scratching the belt surface of the conveyor belt.
