Belt Conveyor Slipping Causes

Slipping, can be said to be a belt conveyor operation process is a headache, if slippage occurs, it will cause material scattering, feed pipe blockage, broken belt abnormalities, there are belt wear and other phenomena, thus affecting the normal operation of the belt conveyor, the following follow the footsteps of the editor to take a look at the belt conveyor slippage causes it!
Reason 1: insufficient belt tension

If the belt does not have enough tension, then the active pulley and the belt will not produce enough friction between the belt, and at the same time can not pull the belt and load movement. Belt machine tensioning device usually includes spiral tensioning, heavy hammer tensioning and car tensioning structure. When the stroke of the spiral or heavy hammer tensioning device is not enough, or when it is not adjusted properly, it will cause the mechanism to jam, resulting in insufficient belt tension and causing slippage.

Cause 2: Water, oil, ice or frost on the non-working surface of the belt

Through the natural environmental changes, as well as the site of the ground washing, as well as equipment maintenance and other reasons, in the non-working surface accidentally stuck on the water, oil, ice or frost and other adherents, will let the drive roller surface accumulation, reduce friction, cause slipping.
Reason three: belt machine load is too heavy

Because of improper operation, or more than the corresponding load and shutdown, the belt conveyor in operation to carry too large a load, or load start the belt conveyor, resulting in overloaded operation, causing the belt to slip.

Reason 4: The conveyor belt is locally scraped

In general, the conveyor belt localization is stuck, mostly in the head, tail, and tensioning device, when a part of the conveyor belt is subjected to strong resistance, or there is a foreign body, will cause the belt to slip.
Reason 5: start the brake can not open

When the belt machine in the start-up, but also because the brake can not be opened and slip caused by the shutdown, the main reason is that the drive device affected by the brake can not rotate, and at this time the motor circuit has been connected, and the belt and its drive device does not work.

Summarized down it is not difficult to find, caused by the belt machine slipping the main reasons for these 5 points, after understanding clearly, it is convenient to operate, if you can do standardized operation, careful and careful, then you can control the slipping phenomenon to a large extent!
