Analysis of methods for dealing with faults in belt conveyors

Thread Content

Enterprises can determine the maintenance cycle based on the operating conditions of the belt conveyor. Common problems and maintenance of elevators: Elevators are inspected and tested before leaving the factory, with all technical specifications meeting the design requirements. When in use, simply connect it to the power supply; no adjustments are needed to the hydraulic or electrical systems. Slipping of belt conveyors and solutions. There are various reasons for slippage of conveyor belts during operation. Common causes and solutions include: 1. The initial tension of the belt conveyor is too low. Insufficient tension of the conveyor belt at the point where it leaves the drum causes slippage. This situation usually occurs during startup, and the solution is to adjust the tensioning device to increase the initial tension. 2. Slipping occurs due to insufficient friction between the drive drum of the belt conveyor and the conveyor belt. The main reason for this is usually water on the conveyor belt or a humid environment. The solution is to add some rosin powder to the drum. However, be careful not to add it by hand; instead, use a blower device to introduce it, in order to avoid accidents. 3. Too many cases of damage to the roller bearings at the rear of the belt conveyor, resulting in failure to rotate, or damage to the upper and lower idler bearing sets, also leading to failure to rotate. The cause of the damage was excessive sag of the tail float; failed timely maintenance and replacement of the damaged or inflexible components, which increased resistance and led to slipping. 4. Too fast a starting speed of the belt conveyor can also cause slipping. It can now be started slowly. If a squirrel-cage motor is used, starting it after two pulse operations can also effectively overcome slipping. 5. If the load on the belt of the conveyor belt type conveyor is too high, exceeding its capacity, it will also slip. The advantage of slipping at this time is that it provides protection for the electricity. Otherwise, the electricity will be damaged over time. But for operation, it is a slipping accident. To overcome belt slippage, it is first necessary to identify the cause of the slippage in order to take effective corrective measures.
