Three key points for maintaining light conveyor belts

Light conveyor belts have a wide range of applications, involving food, logistics, tobacco, electronics, fitness and other fields. The light conveyor belt plays an important role in the entire production process. If there is a problem with it, the entire production process will be seriously hindered. Therefore, the maintenance and maintenance of the light conveyor belt should be done well in the daily use process to ensure production. To proceed smoothly and prolong the service life of the conveyor belt, then let's take a look at the inspection work that should be paid attention to in the production process;
1. Material guide groove: The material guide groove is another reason for the wear of the tape surface. The closer it is to the tape, the more severe the wear. The guide groove cannot be in contact with the tape, and there should be a certain gap between the bottom edge and the tape. The rubber baffle on the lower edge of the material guide groove should be checked frequently to prevent the material from getting stuck. The fixed part of the loading point device must not come into contact with the tape surface, nor allow material to get stuck in the chute.
2. All rollers should rotate flexibly. Improper selection of roller diameter will have a bad effect on the service life of the belt. If there are many attachments on the pulley, it will cause the conveyor belt to deviate, the cover rubber will wear abnormally, and the belt core will be partially fatigued or even broken. Therefore, it should be checked frequently and removed in time. The rubber sheath of the driving roller is to increase the friction coefficient, reduce the tension, and reduce the slippage caused by wet conditions. Slotted sleeves improve cleaning action on the sleeve and on the belt, extending roller life. When the outer rubber sleeve of the roller is abnormally worn, it should be replaced as soon as possible.
3. Bearing point: the vulnerable part of the conveyor belt at the bearing point. Belt speed as well as material particle size, impact force and direction of load-carrying operation are all important factors to pay attention to. The width of the receiving end of the drop opening chute should be large enough.
Loading material at an angle between the running direction of the light conveyor belt will only increase the wear on the belt surface. The impact of the material on the tape and off-center feeding will cause the tape to climb to the other side along the rotating idler and deviate, which will cause damage to the edge rubber of the tape and aggravate the wear of the local surface rubber.
