Types of belt conveyors and application
The belt conveyor conveyances materials in a continuous way, which forming a continuous conveying system from the feeding point to the unloading point.
Belt conveyor has strong conveying capacity and long conveying distance. And the structure is simple and easy to maintain, and it is convenient to implement programmed control and automatic operation.
The Belt conveyors are widely used in ports, electrical appliances, tobacco and other industries.
conveyors and application
Through the following content, you can learn about 8 types of belt conveyors.
Curved conveyor
The curved belt conveyor can realize the natural curve of the conveyor by changing the arrangement angle of the idler group. It is used with other conveyors to reduce the number of transfer stations and solve a series of problems caused by transfer stations.
The curved angle is mainly divided into 60 °, 90 ° and 180 °.The user can select the appropriate turning angle according to the overture.
Curved belt conveyor is widely used in mines, metallurgy, chemical industry, power stations, ports, etc., especially for long-distance transportation.
Telescopic conveyor
The rack of the telescopic belt conveyor is equipped with a belt storage device.Within a certain range, the belt can be extended freely, and the belt conveying length can be adjusted according to the position of the material.
The telescopic conveyor can realize the forward and reverse conveying function, and shorten the time for manual round-trip handling of materials. It can reduce labor costs and improve work efficiency.
The telescopic belt conveyor is the most efficient and commonly used machine in the continuous conveying of materials. It is widely used in tobacco, warehouse handling and other industries.
Roller conveyor
Roller conveyor is one of the types of belt conveyors.The roller conveyor has simple structure and convenient maintenance.The rollers are easy to connect and transition.And it can be used for multiple roller lines and other conveying equipment to form a relatively complex logistics conveying system.
The roller conveyor is suitable for conveying bulk materials, irregular small objects and materials with large single weight.
Chain conveyor
The buried scraper conveyor is mainly composed of a closed section shell (slot), scraper chain, driving device, tensioning device, safety protection device and other components.
It is a kind of transportation equipment that continuously transports bulk materials with the help of moving scraper chain in the shell of closed rectangular section or circular pipe section.
The scraper conveyor has the characteristics of closed transportation, reducing environmental pollution, etc.
In addition, the scraper conveyor can also realize multi-point feeding and multi-point unloading. It is widely used in metallurgy, ore, thermal power plants and other industries.
Screw conveyor
The screw conveyor is one of the types of belt conveyors.Screw conveyor is a kind of machine that uses the motor to drive the screw to rotate and push the material to achieve the purpose of conveying.It can realize horizontal, inclined and vertical conveying as required.
It can also be divided into axial screw conveyor and shaftless screw conveyor according to the state of conveyed materials.Axial screw conveyor is suitable for dry bulk materials without viscosity. Shaftless screw conveyor is suitable for sticky and winding materials.
Compared with other conveyors, the screw conveyor has the advantages of good sealing performance, stable and reliable operation, multi-point loading and unloading in the middle, safe operation and simple maintenance.
Bucket elevator
Bucket elevator is a continuous conveying machine that vertically lifts materials by using a series of hoppers uniformly fixed on endless traction members.
The bucket elevator is suitable for lifting from low to high. After the supplied materials are put into the hopper through the vibrating table, the machine automatically turns upward for continuous transportation.
It is suitable for medical, food, chemical and other industries.
Belt conveyor
The belt conveyor has the characteristics of strong conveying capacity, long conveying distance, simple structure and easy maintenance.The belt conveyor can conveniently implement programmed control and automatic operation.
It is widely used in household appliances, electronics, electrical appliances, machinery, tobacco, injection molding, posts and telecommunications, printing, food and other industries.
Incline conveyor
When materials need to be lifted or lowered, inclined belt conveyors are often used, but there are certain restrictions on the inclination.Generally, the upward inclination angle shall not exceed 90 °.
It is widely used in coal, grain, building materials, chemical industry, hydropower, agriculture, port, metallurgy and other industries.
3 Types of conveyor belt material
When selecting a conveyor, it is necessary to consider its environment.Select the appropriate belt material according to the environment to prolong the service life of the conveyor. The following are common belt materials.
Rubber conveyor belt
Rubber conveyor belt has good heat resistance and corrosion resistance. It is a solid belt made of tough and durable materials. It is widely used in all walks of life, such as food industry, electronic industry, medical and pharmaceutical industry, etc.
Pvc conveyor belt
PVC is an amorphous material with strong resistance to oxidants, reductants and strong acids.It is widely used in daily necessities, metallurgy, chemical industry, logistics and other industries.
Pu conveyor belt
PU environmental protection material has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, cold resistance, cutting resistance, etc.It is widely used in food industry, fruit and vegetable industry, processing industry, etc.
