Belt conveyor is an important material conveying equipment. It can convey stably and with large conveying capacity, improve the efficiency of industrial production, and is suitable for conveying various materials, such as raw grain, coal, ore, cement, fertilizer, fuel, etc. Circular tube belt conveyor is widely used in mining, building materials, metallurgy, chemical industry and other industries.
Overview of the operating principles of belt conveyor
1. Inspection before starting
Before starting, check the tightness of the conveyor belt to avoid sagging, slipping, idling or breaking of the conveyor belt. The tightness of the conveyor can be adjusted by the tensioning device.
2. Inspection during work
During work, check the working condition of the roller frequently. If the roller does not rotate, it will increase the running resistance and cause serious wear of the belt.
3. Precautions during feeding
The feeding must be kept uniform, and the material should be fed to the middle position of the conveyor belt as much as possible. Otherwise, it will cause overload, reduced conveying capacity or partial load.
4. Joint operation of conveyors
When multiple belt conveyors work together, the machine should be started from the one at the discharge end. When stopping, the feeding should be stopped first, and the conveyor at the feeding end should be shut down first, and then shut down one by one.
5. Maintenance of conveyor belts
Attention should be paid to the maintenance of conveyor belts. It is strictly forbidden to contact with corrosive substances such as gasoline, diesel, and engine oil. Check and remove surface adhesions frequently.
6. Regular rotation of components
Pay attention to regularly adding lubricating oil to rotating components such as drive wheels and tension wheels.
7. Regular maintenance of conveyors
Belt conveyors should be regularly inspected and repaired, and problems should be dealt with in time to ensure their service life.
8. Storage of belt conveyors
Belt conveyors should be carefully stored to avoid sun, night dew and rain to prevent corrosion and rust. If not used for a long time, the conveyor belt should be loosened and stored in the warehouse.
In short
Belt conveyors are friction-driven machines that transport materials in a continuous manner. The belt conveyor has strong conveying capacity, long conveying distance, simple structure and easy maintenance, and can easily implement programmed control and automated operation.
