How to Prevent the Wear on The Edge of the Conveyor Belt?

As a Steel Cord Conveyor Belt Factory, let's talk about several ways to prevent wear on the edges of the belt.

The edge wear of the conveyor belt is mainly the friction and wear of the belt edge and the frame when the conveyor belt is deflected. The conveyor belt should run on the centerline of the roller set. However, due to defects caused by the manufacture, installation, use, etc. of the conveyor, the conveyor belt often deviates from the centerline. Usually, the conveyor belt allows 5% of the deviation in the width direction. When the deviation is excessive, the Coal Conveyor Belt is in contact with the roller bracket and the frame to cause edge rubber wear; even when the deviation is severe, the conveyor belt may even be worn. Flanging, such as the radial travel screw head of the drum, the bumper block, and other raised parts. Or the gap between the racks is too small, which may cause tearing of the conveyor belt and partial peeling and scratching of the covering rubber.

Through the analysis of the wear factors of the PVG Conveyor Belt, corresponding precautions are taken in the design of the belt conveyor to extend the life of the conveyor belt. The design is usually optimized from the following five aspects to reduce belt wear.

1. Reasonable choice of conveyor belt

2. Reduce the wear on the conveyor belt of the PVG Conveyor Belt components.

3. Optimization of the structure of the feeding device.

4. Reduce the impact of the receiving process on the conveyor belt.

5. Use electromechanical protection devices.
