A conveyor belt is a mechanical device commonly used in industry. Its function is to transport goods from one place to another. However, in the use of the conveyor belt, due to a variety of reasons, there may be failures. Next, we will discuss typical faults and handling methods in the use of conveyor belts.
Conveyor belt migration
Conveyor belt deviation refers to the state that the conveyor belt deviates from the designed track and loses balance during operation, which can be caused by improper installation, improper tightness, strong wind and heavy impact of the conveyor belt. Here's how to deal with it:
1. Adjust the tightness of the conveyor belt
Adjusting the tightness of conveyor belt is one of the simple ways to eliminate the deviation of conveyor belt. If the conveyor belt is loose and relaxed, it can be slightly tightened. If the conveyor belt is too tight, it needs to be properly relaxed to restore its balance.
2. Repair the conveyor belt support system
Incorrect conveyor belt support system may also cause conveyor belt deviation. If the conveyor belt support is not strong enough, it can be repaired or strengthened.
3. Install the straightening guide
Installing a guide on the conveyor belt can keep the conveyor belt on the correct track all the time and eliminate its deviation.
