Preventing belt conveyor deviation is crucial for ensuring stable operation of organic fertilizer production lines. Deviation not only causes material spillage but also increases belt wear and can even cause equipment failure. Here are some effective ways to prevent belt conveyor deviation:
1. Ensure installation accuracy: When installing the conveyor, ensure the frame is level. Use a level to calibrate the frame during installation to ensure the frame's levelness is within the permitted tolerances. The roller must be accurately positioned, ensuring it is concentric with the conveyor's centerline and at an accurate angle.
2. Properly adjust the tensioning device to maintain appropriate tension: The belt tension should be moderate. If the tension is too low, the belt will slip during operation, causing deviation. If the tension is too high, it will increase belt and roller wear, shortening equipment life. During the commissioning phase, the tensioning device should be adjusted appropriately based on the belt model and conveyor length to ensure appropriate belt tension.
3. Tensioning device location: The location of the tensioning device can also affect the belt's operating condition. The tensioning device should be installed at the rear of the conveyor, symmetrically with the conveyor's centerline.
4. Installing Automatic Deflection Adjustment Rollers: Automatic deflection adjustment rollers are installed at key locations on the conveyor. These rollers automatically adjust the angle of the rollers if the belt deviates, restoring the belt to its normal position.
5. Deflection Baffles: Deflection baffles are installed on both sides of the conveyor. These baffles stop the belt from deviating, restoring it to its normal position. The installation location of the deflection baffles should be determined based on the conveyor's length and operating conditions, and are generally installed at the head or tail of the conveyor.
