一、 Dust leakage issue on conveyor beltA conveyor belt is a type of equipment that is frequently used in industrial production processes for transporting goods. However, during conveyor belt transportation, dust from materials often leaks out from both sides of the conveyor belt, posing potential hazards to the environment around the production line and the health of employees.二、 Technical means for sealing conveyor beltsTo reduce the harm of dust leakage, we can use the following technical measures to seal the conveyor belt:
How does the conveyor belt turn
The turning of conveyor belts is usually achieved through the following methods: The turning of the conveyor belt can be achieved manually or automatically. Manual steering is usually achieved through manual operation, while automatic steering is achieved through an automatic control system composed of motors, reducers, and steering devices. The steering device usually consists of a transmission shaft, side plate, torque support device, torque traction device, and transmission mechanism.
Sharing of handling methods for damaged packages on conveyor belts
一、 Reasons for package damage caused by conveyor belt jammingThe conveyor belt may experience package damage during long-term use, mainly due to the following reasons:
Calculation of conveyor belt selection
The selection and calculation of conveyor belts involve multiple aspects, including the calculation of parameters such as transmission power, speed, belt speed, belt tension, length, width, etc. Here is a detailed introduction: Calculation of transmission power. Transmission power is one of the important indicators for selection, and the calculation formula is transmission power=mass of material conveyed per hour x conveying height ÷ conveying efficiency.Calculation of rotational speed. The speed depends on the transmission power and drum diameter, and the calculation formula is speed=60 x transmission power ÷ (3.14 x drum diameter x drum speed).Calculation of the maximum load capacity of the conveyor belt. The maximum load capacity of the conveyor belt is (conveyor belt width x speed x material density x effective section length x friction coefficient) ÷ 1000.Calculation of conveyor belt tension. Belt tension of the conveyor belt=(transmission force x transmission coefficient) ÷ (π x (2 x p x d/2) x n/60).Calculation of conveyor belt length. Belt length=(turning radius x) Π 2) ÷ (2 x tangent angle).Calculation of the ratio of conveyor belt speed to drum circumference speed. The ratio of belt speed to drum circumference speed is usually the ratio of belt speed to the limit line speed of the drum.Calculation of conveyor belt ripple height and period. The height and period of the ripple should be determined based on the material properties, conveying process, belt speed, and transmission power.Calculation of the diameter and tension of the conveyor belt drum. The diameter and tension of the drum need to be calculated based on material properties, conveying distance, belt speed, and the load-bearing capacity of the drum.In addition, there are calculations for load, bandwidth, etc. The calculation of these parameters needs to be determined based on specific application scenarios and requirements.
Which is better, belt conveyor or roller?
Roller conveyor belt and belt conveyor belt each have their own advantages and applicable scenarios, and the choice of which one is better depends on specific application requirements. The advantages of roller conveyor belts include: Simple structure: easy to maintain and install.Wide applicability: suitable for conveying requirements of different needs.Suitable for discrete materials: able to easily adapt to the transportation of materials of different sizes and shapes.Roller conveyor belts are mainly suitable for top heavy loads and side guidance, suitable for conveying discrete materials, and widely used in manufacturing, logistics and other fields. The advantages of belt conveyors include: Long distance and high-strength conveying: suitable for the transportation of large amounts of materials, especially in situations where the height distance of the conveying unloading point is large.Continuous production operation: capable of long-distance transmission, suitable for mining, building materials, chemical and other fields.Overload protection function: In case of overload, the belt will slip on the pulley, protecting weak components from damage.Low cost: simple structure, low precision requirements for manufacturing and installation, no need for lubrication, and easy maintenance.Belt conveyors are suitable for long-distance and high-strength transportation, as well as the transportation of large amounts of materials, especially in situations where the height distance of the discharge point is relatively large. In summary, there is no absolute “good” or “bad”, and the choice between roller conveyor belts or belt conveyor belts should be determined based on actual application scenarios and needs.
Service life and replacement time of industrial conveyor belts
The general lifespan of industrial conveyor belts depends on factors such as materials, usage environment, and maintenance level. Generally speaking, the lifespan is around 3-5 years. 一、 Factors affecting the lifespan of industrial conveyor belts

What to do if industrial belts are aging?
The emergence of industrial belts has provided great assistance to enterprises, and for many machines, belts are indispensable components. However, during normal use, industrial belts may also experience wear, breakage, aging, and other issues, causing great trouble for manufacturers. So, how should we deal with problems with industrial belts? Let’s take a closer look below.According to the experience of Qingchuan PU synchronous belt manufacturer in the industrial belt industry for many years, it can be concluded that some common problems with industrial belts include normal aging, belt elongation, and worn belt surface. The occurrence of these problems will affect the normal operation of the transmission device, thereby affecting the normal operation of mechanical equipment, which is something we do not want it to occur.Industrial belts show signs of aging. Normal aging of industrial belts is inevitable, including belt elongation and wear, which is a normal way for industrial belts. According to the understanding of the manufacturer of Qingchuan PU synchronous belt, it is recommended to replace the belt in a timely manner when it shows aging. Regarding the aging and elongation of the belt, there is an emergency solution: the industrial belt can be tied up by a wire to shorten the belt and increase its elasticity.There are many reasons for abnormal wear of industrial belts due to wear and tear on the surface: excessive tension on the belt surface, excessive load on the belt, and excessive abrasive dust in the environment, which can all cause belt wear. Therefore, we need to conduct regular inspections of industrial belts. When synchronous belts develop wear and tear or other problems, it is necessary to conduct troubleshooting, timely eliminate problems, and prevent greater losses.That’s all for the introduction of how to deal with the aging of industrial belts. It’s worth noting that even if the quality of the belt is good, there will still be one day of aging. Therefore, if the belt ages normally, it should be replaced in a timely manner. However, paying attention to the maintenance of the belt can also extend the aging time of the belt.
How to cut the conveyor belt?
The method of cutting the conveyor belt depends on the type and material of the conveyor belt. The following are several methods of cutting the conveyor belt:Hand cut. Use tools with higher hardness, such as chainsaws, hand saws, or pliers. Firstly, place the conveyor belt on the workbench and use a hammer or rubber hammer to strike the desired cutting area to level the surface. Then, select a suitable manual cutting tool and firmly clamp the area, and use force to cut along the predetermined direction.Mechanical cutting. Use specialized cutting tools, such as electric or gas cutting machines. Place the conveyor belt in the designated position and clamp it in place, set the cutting length and shape, and turn on the cutting machine for cutting.Thermal cutting. Suitable for thick conveyor belts, using high temperature for cutting. The blade needs to be heated to a certain temperature before cutting.Regardless of the method used, it is important to pay attention to safety and avoid unnecessary losses during the cutting process. After cutting, if the conveyor belt is made of rubber material, a flame or hot air gun can be used to heat seal the cut to prevent edge cracking and enhance its strength.
