Small Details That Cannot Be Ignored For PVC Conveyor Belts
With the development of science and technology, a high degree of automation, intelligent manufacturing has gradually replaced traditional manual manufacturing, and PVC conveyor belt plays a vital role in it. But many people are really confused about how to buy PVC conveyor belts.
1.How to choose PVC conveyor belt
First of all, you need to know what material you want to transport, whether it needs anti-static, whether it needs abrasion resistance and other characteristics, as well as the thickness, length, and width options. In terms of thickness, general PVC conveyor belts are available from 0.8mm to 6.0mm. If you need to climb, you can choose a conveyor belt with patterns, which can increase the friction between the PVC conveyor belt and the material, so as to achieve climbing transportation.
PVC conveyor belts can be equipped with guides, baffles, skirts, etc. on the surface or back of the belt, which are suitable for transportation in various complex environments. Therefore, PVC conveyor belts play an important role in conveying goods. The longer its service life is The more advantageous the production of the enterprise, the more effective it can reduce the cost. So, how can we extend the life of PVC conveyor belt? PVC conveyor belt manufacturers have summarized some methods.
2.How to Maintain PVC conveyor belt
1)Adjust related equipment in time according to the operation of the conveyor belt. Prevent belt deviation, belt wear and damage the upper and lower cover rubber.
2)Remove the attachments on the outer surface of the transmission drum in time to prevent bubbling, PVC twitching, and elongation of the vulcanized joint that may affect the strength of the joint due to the irregular shape of the drum.
3)The vulcanized joint is the weak part of the conveyor belt. Plastic cracking begins to appear at the joint opening. Water enters the PVC through the gap of the core rubber, PVC corrosion, broken wire, etc., and the elongation change of the joint should be checked in time, and the appearance of abnormal changes should Find defects in vulcanized joints and repair them in time.
4)For conveyor belts with steel buckle joints, be diligent to check whether there are changes in the joints, so as to make a prediction, and it will not affect the use.
5)Assuming that when the side rubber of the conveyor belt has defects such as peeling off, cover rubber, and partial exposure, according to the damage, choose different repair methods such as cold repair, hot vulcanization, and PVC filling to keep the appearance of the conveyor belt intact. Of course, this kind of situation needs to find professional technology to do the repair.
For the damage that cannot be handled, it is also necessary to order and arrange the replacement of new straps in time to avoid delays in production.
3.Features of PVC conveyor belt
1)PVC conveyor belt has high strength, good elasticity, and light weight. In addition to these points, non-toxic, no odor, long service life, good wear resistance, and low resistance are also the criteria for many companies when choosing conveyor belts.
2)The PVC belt is made of polyester fiber cloth and polyvinyl chloride rubber. It uses high-quality cotton, nylon, and polyester canvas as the core, which is not easy to deform.
3)PVC conveyor belt has non-flammability, weather resistance and excellent geometric stability. It has strong resistance to oxidants, reducing agents and strong acids. With good lateral stability, it can work well in various complicated environments and can work at temperatures of -10℃~+80℃.
4)PVC conveyor has a variety of pattern types, which can convey materials with an inclination angle of 1°~40°, which can effectively prevent the material from falling. Common types of patterns are: herringbone pattern, strip pattern, grass belt pattern, diamond pattern, diamond pattern, I-shaped pattern and so on.
5)PVC conveyor belt product formula design is reasonable, in line with sanitary indicators, moderate color, light and durable, easy to install, easy to maintain, many companies favor such conveyor belts.
