Feeding Belt Elevator Sidewall belt conveyor, also known as belt elevator, may occasionally spill bulk materials during operation. What conditions can cause material spillage on the sidewall incline belt conveyor?
Generally speaking, the causes of material spillage on the sidewall belt conveyor are summarized as follows:
-
Uneven height on both sides of the belt elevator (sidewall belt conveyor) When the conveyor belt is running, the height of the two sides may change. One side is higher while the other is relatively lower, causing materials to spill from the lower side. In this case, we need to correct the deviation of the sidewall belt conveyor.
-
Material spillage caused by damage to the belt elevator (sidewall belt conveyor) No belt deviation occurs on the belt elevator (sidewall belt conveyor), but materials still spill out. It is necessary to check whether the surface of the belt elevator (sidewall belt conveyor) is damaged and whether materials fall through gaps. If the sidewall belt conveyor is not severely damaged, maintenance and repair can be carried out. If the damage is too serious, a new sidewall belt needs to be replaced.
-
Too low cleats and sidewalls of the belt elevator (sidewall belt conveyor) If the cleats and sidewalls of the belt elevator (sidewall belt conveyor) are low while the conveyed material stacking height is relatively high, materials will spill due to inertia when the conveyor belt runs at high speed.
