Precautions for use of conveyor belts

Conveyor belts undoubtedly carry materials and connect all aspects of production, which is very important in industrial production. Today, let us discuss several key precautions in the use of conveyor belts.

First of all, we must emphasize that it is strictly forbidden to link belts of different categories and specifications together during use. This is because conveyor belts of different specifications have differences in material, strength, elasticity, etc. Mixed use will not only affect the conveying efficiency, but may also cause safety accidents. Therefore, before use, make sure that the specifications of the conveyor belt match the equipment, and it is strictly forbidden to mix them.

Secondly, pay attention to prevent folding and hard object pressure during use. Folding will cause uneven stress distribution inside the conveyor belt, affecting its service life; while hard object pressure may scratch the surface of the conveyor belt and even cause it to break. Therefore, when using it, ensure that the conveyor belt is flat, without hard object pressure, and avoid excessive bending and twisting.

In addition, it is also crucial that the direction of the transported material and the speed of the material falling are consistent with the direction and speed of the belt. If the material falls too fast or in the wrong direction, it will not only affect the conveying efficiency, but also cause impact and wear on the conveyor belt. Therefore, when using it, you should adjust the falling speed and direction of the material to ensure that it matches the speed and direction of the conveyor belt.

Finally, be sure to start the machine empty before use to check the operating conditions of the conveyor belt and equipment. This can avoid problems such as electric overload and conveyor belt slippage. At the same time, all materials on the belt should be unloaded before stopping the machine to avoid deformation or damage of the conveyor belt due to long-term heavy-load shutdown.
