Three Types of Conveyor Belt Stretching

1. Elastic stretching
   1. Happens at the time of belt conveyor system acceleration or braking deceleration;
   2.  Happens at the time when pulling stress disappears, and can almost be fully recovered.

2. Structural stretching
   1. The possibility due to the conveyor belt fabric type is higher than that due to the textile type.
   2. In the fabrics that weaved according to traditional types, the frizzy

Yarn is easily to stretch when the belt conveyor system is loaded, certain part of this conveyor belt stretching is unable to be recovered.

3. Permanent change in length (permanent stretching)

Mainly caused by the fundamental fabric structure stretching, unrecoverable elastic stretching or structural stretching.
