What is the working pull of the conveyor belt?

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-02-08

Conveyor belt working tension refers to the tension or tension force acting on the conveyor belt during its operation. It refers to the tension force on a conveyor belt that is used to push and transmit materials or goods.

The working pull of the conveyor belt is usually composed of the following forces:

1.Drive force: Conveyor belts are usually driven by motors, transmission devices, etc., and driving force refers to the force provided by motors or other power sources to push the material on the conveyor belt to move.

2.Material gravity: The material or goods on the conveyor belt often have a certain gravity, so the gravity of the material will create a pulling force that makes it run downward.

3.Friction: There is friction between the conveyor belt and the drive roller, idler and other components, and the friction will produce a pulling force, so that the materials on the conveyor belt are pushed and transmitted.

4.Bending resistance: The conveyor belt will experience a certain resistance during turning and bending, and the resistance will create a pulling force to keep the conveyor belt running.

Zaozhuang Golden Flex Rubber & Plastic Technology Co., Ltd. reminds everyone that the working tension of the conveyor belt depends on a number of factors, including but not limited to material weight, transmission speed, conveyor belt length, friction coefficient, etc. In order to ensure the normal operation and safety of the conveyor belt, the working tension of the conveyor belt needs to be calculated and controlled according to the actual situation, and the design of the drive device and structure can meet the required working tensile requirements.

The correct calculation and adjustment of the working tension of the conveyor belt is essential to ensure the proper operation and service life of the conveyor belt. For specific conveyor belt working tensile calculations and related parameters and designs, it is advisable to consult a professional mechanical engineer, merchant, or conveyor belt manufacturer for accurate information and guidance.
