Use And Maintenance of Belt Conveyor

Belt conveyor is used to transport material to the next process. The belt works under the effect of frictional force. The speed of belt conveyor can be adjusted through inverter or speed ratio control device. It is widely used for conveying materials in mine,building material, chemistry, metallurgy and mineral processing industries. Henan Huahong Mining Machinery Co., ltd will provide information on the use and maintenance of belt conveyor for the readers.

1. Belt conveyor operation

Before close down the machine, operators should check whether there is any barrier on the belt conveyor , if so, they must be removed immediately. Check the power pressure when the machine starts working to ensure the normal power pressure in belt convey use. If all parts of belt conveyor is in good condition, operators can then power off the machine.

2. Belt conveyor maintenance.
Operators should check the drive motor and reduction gear, inspect wether the belt is loosen and adjust timely every day. Every month, check wether the belt is elongated and timely adjust; check the expansion cylinder to ensure it is flexible, if not, it should be timely repaired. Check the goodness of fit between transmission chain wheel, timely adjust and add lubricating oil to chain. In order to avoid accidents, operators should use air gun to clean the dust in the control box of belt conveyor. Do a great maintenance for belt conveyor each year, check the damage degree of every part of belt conveyor. If operators can fully grasp the method to use belt conveyor, the machine will has a long working life.
