Analysis of plastic chain conveyor operation and key points for daily maintenance

2018-02-27View Original

Thread Content

In today’s food industry, plastic chain plates are increasingly used in a wide range of machinery. This is because plastic chain plates possess advantages such as high strength, resistance to acids and alkalis, resistance to saltwater, a wide operating temperature range, excellent anti-sticking properties, a greater lifting angle, ease of cleaning, and simplicity in maintenance. As a result, they meet the demands of the market and have earned a good reputation among consumers; there is even a shortage of these products. Today, experts will explain to us the aspects related to the transportation of plastic chain plates as well as the precautions for their daily maintenance. 1. When transporting or maintaining plastic chain plates, it is essential to avoid direct exposure to sunlight or rain. 2. Care should be taken to prevent contact with organic solvents and other such substances. The storage temperature for plastic chain plates should generally be maintained between 17-39 degrees, with a relative humidity of 49-79%. 3. Plastic chain plates must be stored in rolled form to prevent folding and avoid frequent turning over. Products of different specifications and models should not be used together; gluing the joints is a good option. The choice of plastic chain plates should be based on actual operational requirements in order to achieve the desired results. 4. The operating speed of plastic chain conveyor belts should not be too high, otherwise it will cause severe wear. 5. The relationship between the diameter of the plastic chain plate drive roller and the layer arrangement, as well as the drive rollers and direction-changing rollers, should all be designed according to the specific requirements of the actual conveyor. 6. When using plastic chain plates, it is essential to ensure that the idlers are not covered by the material, in order to prevent material leakage and getting stuck between the drum and the belt. Attention should also be paid to the lubrication of parts such as the belt. The equipment must not be started or operated under overload conditions, and the belt must not deviate from its path. Any local damage to the belt requires repair or replacement. Therefore, mastering more practical knowledge regarding the transportation of plastic chain plates as well as the precautions for their daily use can effectively improve their performance and extend their service life. This, in turn, helps to enhance work efficiency and meet the needs of the healthy development of the food industry.
