How to maintain chevron conveyor belts?

Chevron conveyor belts should be kept clean during transport and storage, avoiding direct sunlight or exposure to rain and snow. They should be kept away from contact with acids, alkalis, oils, and organic solvents, and at least one meter away from heat sources.

The storage temperature in the warehouse should be maintained between 18-40°C, and the relative humidity should be kept between 50-80%.

During storage, conveyor belts must be stored in rolls and not folded. They should be turned over every season.

Different types, specifications, and layers of conveyor belts should not be connected for use; it is best to use adhesive joints.

The type, structure, specifications, and number of layers of the conveyor belt should be selected based on the operating conditions.

The running speed of the conveyor belt should generally not exceed 2.5 meters per second. For large, abrasive materials and fixed discharge devices, lower speeds should be used whenever possible.

The diameter of the conveyor's driving drum and its relationship with the layers of the conveyor belt, as well as the configuration of the driving and redirecting drums and the requirements for the trough angle of the rollers, should be reasonably selected according to the design specifications of the conveyor.

The feeding direction should be aligned with the running direction of the conveyor belt. To reduce the impact of material falling on the conveyor belt, a chute should be used to minimize the falling distance. The distance between rollers in the belt's receiving section should be shortened, and buffer rollers should be used to prevent material spillage. The deflector plate should be soft and appropriately flexible to prevent it from being too hard and damaging the belt surface.
