How much do you know about the joints of the conveyor belt?

All the conveyor belts must be connected in a ring shape for practical use, so the joints of the conveyor belts are a crucial part of the preparation. The quality of the joint directly affects the service life of the conveyor belt and whether the conveyor line can run smoothly and smoothly.

1, the type of joint method

Conveyor belt joints are: mechanical joints, cold joints, thermal curing joints, and several other commonly used methods.

Mechanical joints generally refer to the use of belt buckle joints, this joint method is convenient and economical, but also more economical, but the joint of low efficiency, easy to damage, the service life of the conveyor belt products have a certain impact. In PVC and PVG whole core flame retardant antistatic conveyor joint, the general 8-level with the following products are used in this joint method.

Cold-bonded, that is, cold-bonded adhesive for joints. This joint method than the mechanical joint of high efficiency, but also more economical, should be able to have a better joint effect, but in practice, due to the more difficult to master the process conditions, while the quality of the adhesive on the joint is very large, So not very stable.

Heat-cured joints, the practice proved to be the most ideal kind of joint method to ensure high joint efficiency, but also very stable, joint life is also very long, easy to master. However, there are problems such as troublesome processes, high costs and long operating time of the connector.

2, joint of layered conveyor belt

According to the need to adopt mechanical joints, cold bonding joints, joints and other methods of thermal curing joints. General cold bonding joints, thermal vulcanization joints to take the ladder structure joints.

3, joint of PVC and PVG flame retardant conveyor belt

As the whole structure of the whole belt is rather special, the joints are not easy, so the majority of mechanical joints, which is the belt buckle joints. However, more than 8 bands, in order to ensure the joint effect, the general approach are still using thermal vulcanization joints. The structure of the joints are finger joints. PVC and PVG whole flame retardant conveyor belt vulcanization joint process is more complex, the requirements of the equipment is relatively high.

4, joint of steel cord conveyor belt

Steel cord conveyor belt connector is the most complex technology of all conveyor joints, not only more complex process, the design of the joint size parameters are up. Different levels of products selected by the joint structure is different.
