How to Prevent the PVC Conveyor Belt from Tearing Vertically?
2025-07-29 14:17The PVC conveyor belt produced by Liaoning Hengyi Rubber Machine Belt Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is the company's main product, which has good antistatic and flame retardant properties. PVC conveyor belt has a thin body, superior wear resistance, good tear resistance, high strength and long life. It is the first choice for conveying materials in coal mines, metallurgy, ports and other industries. Many customers will encounter longitudinal tearing of the conveyor belt in the process of using the PVC conveyor belt produced by the same industry. How to solve it has become a difficult problem. This article teaches you how to solve the problem of longitudinal tearing of the conveyor belt.
Rollers can be used to prevent deviation, and the deviation of the conveyor belt is the main cause of the edge brushing of the conveyor belt. We recommend that you install 2 anti-deviation rollers every 10 frames on the basis of the original conveyor rack, so as to prevent the conveyor belt from brushing edges from the root cause.
It is also possible to change the shape of the original roller. Generally, the roller used in conveyors is formed at right angles between the end face and the surface of the roller. The sharp right-angle edges will cause the PVC conveyor belt to withstand the downward bending force when the roller is not rotating inflexibly. The force, the roller will be like a sharp knife to tear the PVC conveyor belt. In order to avoid this problem, we recommend that you use arc-shaped idlers, which can bend the conveyor belt between the two series of idlers, which will not cause damage to the conveyor belt, and can fundamentally prevent the longitudinal tearing of the PVC conveyor belt.
After solving the problem of longitudinal tearing, we must not forget the maintenance link. Correct maintenance is also essential for PVC conveyor belt. During transportation and storage of PVC conveyor belt, keep it clean and avoid direct sunlight, do not be soaked in rain or snow, and prevent contact with acids, alkalis, oils, organic solvents and other substances. It is best to stay one meter away from the heating device. During storage, the PVC conveyor belt must be placed in rolls and cannot be folded. It must be flipped every quarter during storage. And pay attention to the conveyor belts of different types, specifications, and layers. It is best not to use them together, and the joints are best glued together. The operating speed of PVC conveyor belt during use is generally not greater than 2.5 m/s. Materials with large block size and high wear resistance and the use of fixed plow-type unloading devices should be used at low speeds as much as possible. The feeding direction should follow the direction of operation of the conveyor belt. In order to reduce the impact of the material on the conveyor belt when it falls, a chute should be used to reduce the distance of the material falling. The receiving section of the conveyor belt should shorten the spacing of the rollers and adopt cushioning rollers. In order to prevent material leakage, a soft and moderately soft baffle plate should be used on the side of the belt to avoid the baffle plate from scratching the belt surface of the conveyor belt.
