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.

Daily, Weekly, Monthly Belt Conveyor Check&Maintenance Work

When using the belt conveyor, less daily check and maintenance or do not pay attention to maintenance will greatly reduce the service life of the belt conveyor, when the belt conveyor problems occur, it will affect the work efficiency, so regular inspection for belt conveyor parts is needed.
Daily check
Mechanical items: inspect the guardrail, bridge, roller, pulley, turnabout pulley and belt.
Electrical items: inspect the anti-skid device, deviation switch, emergency stop switch, tear detection device, anti-reverse device.

Weekly check
Mechanical items: inspect the driving wheel, guide wheel section, reducer, inspect the machine's tail, check tensioning device and pull rope device.
Electrical items: inspect the main motor, inverter, filter, repair and inspect the main transformer wiring, electrical control, power system.
Monthly check
Mechanical items: inspect the rope wheel, transition wheel, guide wheel, driving wheel, belt wheel, tensioning car and check the oiling.
Electrical items: inspect the fastening bolts, fast switch; the maintenance and repair of commutator, limit protection, emergency stop protection and the alarm system.
