Guide Rail Makes Tripper or Bucket Elevator Perform Better

Guide rail is made of metal or other material to become groove or ridge which is a device that can withstand, fix and guide mobile device or reduce their friction. Longitudinal groove or ridge on the surface of guide rail is used for guiding or fixing machine parts. Moreover, it is also known as sliding rail or linear guides, used in the occasion of linear reciprocating motion. It has a higher rated load and can assume certain torque. At the same time, high-precision linear motion can be achieved in the case of high load.
Guide rail provides a precise operation track for the conveyor tripper car. Matched with the belt conveyor, conveyor tripper car can achieve the aim of discharging materials at any points in the certain length of belt conveyor through moving back and forth on the guide rail.

In general, guide rail is installed in the head, tail and middle part of chain bucket elevator. Also, it is usually made of wear-resistant steel and its surface is quite smooth, so on the one hand it can lessen the friction between chain and guide rail and reduce components depreciation rates, on the other hand it can prevent the chain being off tracking, so as to achieve the purpose of conveying materials efficiently.
PK Machinery adopts the best quality guide rail which is manufactured by Ma'anshan Iron&Steel that is best rail manufacturer in China, and it is used for conveyor tripper car and bucket elevator.

Application of Sidewall Belt Conveyor in Thermal Power Plant

1.Requirements
Sidewall belt conveyor is the major equipment to convey coal and lime-ash in thermal power plant. Therefore it has high requirements for the security of equipment. Generally speaking, the whole transit line is equipped with twin channel sidewall belt conveyor, one is put into use, another is as standby application device. Thus, this coal handling system must be equipped with sidewall belt conveyor with 2500m-3000m length. Applying sidewall belt conveyor to thermal powder plant, it can not only simplify procedure, but also save cost.
2.Features
Due to power plant has high requirements for the security of equipment, technical requirements of sidewall belt conveyor are as follows:
1) It has different requirements for belt conveyor when it used to receive, convey or discharge materials. For instance, if the belt conveyor is used to receive materials, the belt speed of it shouldn’t be too high. If it is used to convey materials, it requires that trough angle of idler decrease properly. If plow discharger is put into use, the cover rubber of belt surface should be thicken properly. 
2)The belt speed should be low. Belt conveyor is mostly arranged in workshop, so it has high requirements for coal dust control. According to domestic and foreign practical experience, it’s better to adopt lower speed.
3)After installation of this machine, it seldom changes its layout.
4)Different coal type has different requirements for belt conveyor. For example, large coal particle size needs impact idler with high quality. Coal with less water and more dust needs guide chute with good sealing. 

Tripper Introduction

Belt conveyor tripper is a mobile device which can unload materials at the arbitrary point of horizontal section of the conveyor; it’s a single part of the conveyor. Movable tripper can be divided into light-duty type and heavy-duty type.

tripper

► Advantage

    1.Heavy duty structural frames and supports – to provide system rigidity

    2.Heavy duty inlet skirting – to eliminate spillage at discharge transition

    3.Abrasion resistant belting – to reduce wear and increase life span

    4.Heavy duty idlers with anti-friction bearings – to increase idler life and reduce horsepower requirements

    5.High torque drive units – to power through upset conditions 

    6.Modular design shipped with limited field assembly required for drop in, bolt in place field installation

    7.May be fitted to any new or existing conveyor

    8.Single and dual side discharge designs

    9.Evenly distribution of materials 

    10.Save storage space

    11.Powered tripper movement through cable/winch assembly or powered wheels, crowned bend pulleys for positive belt tracking 

    12.Shuttling cross conveyor belt design available with side to side movement

    13.Cross over platform/operator deck available on cross conveyor tripper

    14.Engineered to meet new project requirements and also to retrofit existing conveyors

►  Application
XLP Tripper is always used at a large belt conveyor, it applies in the occasion where the belt conveyor has a discharge requirement, such as mining, power plant, steel plant, port, etc.
