How to adjust the belt of mattress conveyor?

The mattress conveyor is called the artery of material conveying, whose stable operation is a reliable guarantee for the normal production of the whole workshop. Because of the harsh working conditions of the mattress conveyor, mattress conveyor has the characteristics of heavy load, high temperature, multi-corrosive medium and continuous operation.

How to adjust the belt of mattress conveyor?

Belt of the mattress conveyor can be adjusted the position of the roller to alter the deviation. The mounting holes on both sides of the idler group are processed as long holes during manufacturing for adjustment. Which side of the belt is biased, which side of the idler group moves forward to the belt direction.

There are many types of self-aligning roller sets. Its principle is to use the block roller rotation in the horizontal direction. Also, it can produce transverse thrust so that the belt automatically centripetal to adjust the belt running deviation. The shorter belt of mattress conveyor is easier to run off and not easy to adjust.

Adjusting the position of driving drum and reversing drum is an important part of belt deviation adjustment. Because a mattress conveyor has at least 2 to 5 rollers that their installation position must be perpendicular to the mattress conveyor length direction of the center line. If the belt deviates to the right side of the drum, the right side of the bearing seat should move forward, corresponding to the left side of the bearing seat moving back.

How to check the belt of mattress conveyor?

Belt deviation is one of the most common faults of mattress conveyor. The main reason is low installation accuracy and poor daily maintenance. During the installation process, the head, tail and the middle rollers should be on the same center line and parallel to each other to ensure that the mattress conveyor belt is less biased.

Check the degree of non-coincidence between the horizontal center line of the idler and the longitudinal center line of the mattress conveyor. If the non-contact value exceeds 3mm, the long mounting holes on both sides of the idlers should be used to adjust them.

Check the deviation value of the two planes of the bearing seat mounted on the head and tail frame. If the deviation between the two planes is greater than 1mm, the two planes should be adjusted in the same plane.

Check the position of the material on the mattress conveyor. Material is not centered on the cross-section of mattress conveyor, which will lead to deviation.

What should be taken into consideration when using mattress conveyor in the harsh environment?

The mattress conveyor can undergo high temperature under 400 degrees Celsius. Generally, stainless steel mesh belt with high temperature resistance will be selected.

The mattress conveyor used in corrosive environment should also note that corrosive environment will destroy the machine, reducing the service life. We should pay attention to perform certain anti-corrosion operation to guarantee the acid and alkali not damage the mattress conveyor.

Lubrication is necessary in the process of material delivery. Grinding will directly lead to wear and tear the parts.
