What Should We Note During the Installation of Large Angle Belt Conveyor

Large angle belt conveyor can be transported with large inclination , it even can be vertical. It adopts sidewall belt as the main part. The advantages are: large conveying amount, small space occupation ,small noise etc. which is widely used for conveying powder, blocked material. Here PK Machinery will introduce the installation notes during installation:
1.Check whether the components of large angle belt conveyor are complete or not
Generally speaking, belt conveyor includes lots of components: head & tail frame, concave & convex segmental arc frame and middle frame, however, the quantity of trough roller frame, rollers and sealing cover is big, you need to check carefully and guarantee the components are transported to the right place.
2.Installation, positioning and welding of head and tail frame, concave and convex segmental arc frame
First of all, please find the center line of the belt conveyor by using a steel wire. When installation, please make the head & tail frame, concave & convex segmental arc frame subject to the center line.

 

3.Check belt running and adjust the belt if it runs off tracking
After installation of belt, trough roller, self-aligning roller and vertical roller, connect the power supply , run the belt and adjust the belt offset distance .
4.Installation of large dip Angle belt conveyor accessories and bolts
After adjusting the belt, you can start to install the sealing cover, head cover and fastening bolts.

Three Horizontal Sections of Large Angle Belt Conveyor

Large angle belt conveyor is suitable for the unit mass of 500 ~ 2500 kg/m3 and the material large size of about 100 ~ 250 mm, the features of large angle belt conveyor are: simple structure, convenient maintenance, space saving and investment saving. Here PK Machinery will explain and introduce three kinds of horizontal section:
1. Upper horizontal section
In order to adapt to the requirement of different discharge height, the head frame is divided into low type frame (head frame height = 1000 mm), middle type head frame (head frame height = 1100 ~ 1100 mm) and high type head frame (head frame height = 1600 ~ 1600 mm).
Correspondingly, low type convex segmental arc frame and low type middle frame support (matched head height = 1000 mm), middle type convex segment frame and middle type frame support (matched head frame height = 1100 ~ 1500 mm), high type convex segment frame and high type middle frame support (matched head frame height = 1600 ~ 1600 mm) will match with upper horizontal section respectively
2. Lower horizontal section
The lower horizontal section adopts low type middle frame support.
3. Inclined section
The inclined section of large angle belt conveyor adopts low type middle frame support. When the conveyor inclined angle β ≧ 45 °, we suggest adopting Ⅱseries low type middle support.

The connection of upper horizontal section and inclined adopts the convex arc segments frame , and the lower horizontal section and inclined section adopt concave segmental arc frame to connect so as to realize the smooth conveyor belt transition.

Why will Belt Conveyor Motorized Pulley Get Rusty

During the operation process of belt conveyor, it will occur some problems due to incorrect method of using or wear and tear, therefore, we need to know some knowledge in order to ensure the normal operation. Here PK Machinery will list some reasons why motorized pulley of belt conveyor will rust:
1. Electroplating time is not enough, it dues to the problem of process flow;
2. Air liquidity of the location where motorized pulley stores is not good, or the location is wet, it is may due to the large difference in temperature;
3. If the package sealing breaks, the motorized pulley may oxidate and get rusty;
4. The most important point is that before electroplating, the dirt on motorized pulley surface is not being cleaned well, it is also one of the reasons why the motorized pulley will get rusty.

 

 

Please Focus on Belt Speed Selection and Principle of Belt Conveyor

As we all know, the most decisive factor of belt conveyor throughput is the belt speed, here we would like to introduce the selection method of belt conveyor belt speed: 

(1) If the conveying capacity of belt conveyor is large, belt width is wide, please select a high belt speed.
(2) If the material is easy to move with big granularity and strong grinding property, please select a low belt speed.
(3) If material conveying interval is long, please choose a high belt speed; If material conveying interval is short and the conveyor angle is big, please select a low belt speed.
(4) If there is large amount of dust during conveying, the belt speed would be 0.8 m/s ~ 1 m/s.
(5) If belt conveyor works with a discharging tripper, the belt speed should not be higher than 2.5 m/s.
(6) If belt conveyor conveys finished product items, the belt speed should be less than 1.25 m/s.

Belt speed selection principle of belt conveyor : the belt speed of belt conveyor is related to belt width, throughput, material size, material properties and conveyor angle. When belt conveyor transports upward and dip angle is large, the tape speed should be low; When belt conveyor transports downward, the belt speed should be much lower. Belt speed selection also should match the cooperated material discharging equipment type, when adopts plough type discharging machine, the belt speed should not exceed 3.15 m/s.

Installation and Notes of Belt Conveyor Anti-rain Cover

1) Open cover and fixed cover are manufactured with the galvanized steel plate or the colorized coating steel plate. Generally ,there will be 1 piece of open cover and 7 pieces of fixed covers installed every 8 pieces covers, the 2 kinds covers also can be installed side by side alternately ( it also can be matched according to customer’s requirement). At first, fasten the fixed conveyor with drilling rivets and based on the line which is upward 30mm from the top of Z type steel, fix a mounting hole every 450mm, every piece of cover overlaps 2 wave crests. Open cover overlaps above the fixed covers in order to open conveniently.

2) The Z type steel or the connection angle iron which is the main support frame of the conveyor cover, the length is equal to the length of the installed conveyor cover
The Z type steel or the connection angle iron is welded on the channel steel or the little stiffening angle iron on both sides of the conveyor

3) Install the covers (fixed covers) from one side to another side along the conveyor, during installation, people are not allowed to stand on the covers and no hard beating and hitting is allowed.
4) Mount the fixed covers on the Z type steel with the drilling rivet. The mounting points are not less than 4 on every piece.

5) 1 piece of observation window cover could be installed every 10 pieces for convenient checking and inspecting. It is decided by users.

6) Salient point cover is only used for the salient points of the convex-concave of the conveyor. Deviation switch cover is only used for covering the deviation switch. These 2 kinds covers also can overlap the fixed covers.

4. Note

1) During the installation, please handle the anti-rain cover carefully and avoid scratching.

2) After installing the accessories, please clean the surface and paint the scratched points again.

Installation of Belt Conveyor Cover Support Frame

 Belt conveyor cover is applicable to power plant, cement plant, mines and other major factories which is waterproof, dustproof and windproof, it plays a great role in reducing the loss during the process of conveying goods ,making the conveyor belt more safe and reliable in operation and purifying the environment .

As the main support frame of the conveyor cover, the length of Z type steel or the connection angle iron is equal to the length of the installed conveyor cover. Please weld the Z type steel or the connection angle iron on the channel steel or the little stiffening angle iron on both sides of the belt conveyor. If need the stiffening angle iron, at first, weld the stiffening angle iron on both sides of the conveyor, then weld the Z type steel or the connection angle iron on the stiffening angle iron, detailed steps are as following:
 1) first weld the little stiffening angle iron ∟40*40*100*4(just for reference, it also can be indicated by users) every 1.5m or 2 m on both sides of the belt conveyor ( eudipleural ). The height from the intermediate frame to the top of little stiffening angle iron should ≥50mm ( it also can be decided by users).
2) Then weld the Z type steel 30*50*30*(2.0~3.0),( just for reference, it also can be replace by angle iron) and fix it on both sides of the intermediate frame top, the inner size should be 10-20mm bigger than outside size of intermediate frame.
3) After being welded please remove welding slag then paint.
 

How to Solve Portable Belt Conveyor Belt Skid Problem
