Installation and alignment techniques for belt conveyors

2021-04-14View Original

Thread Content

The length of conventional belt conveyors is usually within 10 meters; conveyors longer than 10 meters need to be manufactured in sections. When manufacturing in segments, it is necessary to carry out joint installation, and there are three points to note for such installation: First, the joining of the conveyor belts – when joining the belts, it is essential to ensure that each wire fits neatly into its corresponding slot; otherwise, uneven stress will be applied to the conveyor belt. II. Chain alignment: The chain alignment must ensure synchronous tensioning with the conveyor belt. III. Fuselage alignment: Aligning the fuselages is a critical step; it is necessary to ensure a seamless and smooth connection without any deviations up, down, left, or right. ​ As long as these precautions are followed, the quality of the conveyor belt, whether it is manufactured as a single unit or in segments, remains the same. The outstanding features of the mesh belt conveyor’s powerful functions and special properties lie in four aspects: First, the metal conveyor mesh belt, which is highly flexible, can bear heavy loads, does not get damaged, and has a long service life ; II. Belt conveyors can operate in corrosive liquids and are also capable of cleaning various types of products ; III. The perforated design of the belt conveyor is suitable for drying processes, as it allows for effective removal of moisture while enabling rapid drying, **thereby saving heat sources ; IV. Food-grade properties of belt conveyors: their toxicity-free, pollution-free nature and the ability to come into direct contact with food are characteristics that no other type of conveyor can achieve. Common bandwidth ; The common belt widths for conveyor belts made of mesh are: 100 millimeters, 150 millimeters, 200 millimeters, 250 millimeters, 300 millimeters, 400 millimeters, 500 millimeters, 650 millimeters, 800 millimeters, 1000 millimeters, 1200 millimeters, 1400 millimeters, 1600 millimeters, 1800 millimeters, 2000 millimeters, 2200 millimeters, and 2400 millimeters. Additionally, the mesh belts used in stainless steel conveyor belts are custom-made products, so the belt width can be specified according to requirements. Common belt speeds ; Common belt speeds for belt conveyors: 0.25 meters/second, 0.4 meters/second, 0.5 meters/second, 0.8 meters/second, 1.0 meter/second, 1.25 meters/second, 1.6 meters/second, 2.0 meters/second, 2.5 meters/second, 3.15 meters/second, 4.0 meters/second, 4.5 meters/second, 5.0 meters/second, 5.6 meters/second, 6.5 meters/second.
