Conveyor belt edge wear is one of the common problems of conveyors, if not solved in time, it will lead to shortened life of the conveyor belt, and even serious consequences such as breakage. Here are some ways to solve the problem of belt edge wear:
Replace the right belt:Use strips that are appropriate to the characteristics of the material and conveying requirements, avoid belts that are too hard or too soft, and avoid scraping and wear.
Installation of guards:Protective plates and anti-collision strips are installed on both sides of the conveyor belt to avoid direct collision and wear of foreign objects and materials on the belt edge.
Reduced load on the band edge:The load of the conveyor belt is controlled within a reasonable range, so as to avoid exceeding the load range of the strip and reduce the wear and fatigue of the edge of the conveyor belt.
Adjust the position of the conveyor beltAdjust the position, tension and alignment of the belt to ensure stable strip operation and avoid wear caused by deflection and bumps.
Do a good job of lubrication and maintenance:Extend the life of the belt by lubricating and maintaining it regularly, including cleaning, fastening, and replacing worn parts.
Configure side guides:Add a side guide on the conveyor to ensure that the strip does not deflect or deviate to avoid wear on the belt edge.
Increase belt width:Consider increasing the width of the conveyor belt so that the material is concentrated in the belt ** area to avoid wear caused by the material being too close to the belt edge.
The above are some ways to solve the problem of edge wear on the conveyor belt, and corresponding measures need to be taken according to the specific situation, and at the same time, the conveyor is regularly inspected and maintained, and the problem is found and dealt with in time to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
