Modular conveyor line maintenance

There are many reasons for the slippage of the modular conveyor line in the production operation. Below we will talk about the frequently seen in the operation and the processing method:

One is that the conveyor belt of the food conveyor line is overloaded, which exceeds the capacity of the motor, so it will slip. At this time, the transportation volume of the conveyed materials should be reduced or the bearing capacity of the conveyor itself should be increased.

The second is that the starting speed of the food conveyor line is too fast, causing slippage. At this time, it should be started slowly or restarted after two jog again, which can also overcome the phenomenon of slipping.

The third is that the initial tension is too small. The reason is that the tension of the conveyor belt is not enough when it leaves the roller, which causes the conveyor belt to slip. The method to deal with at this time is to adjust the tensioning device to increase the initial tension.

The fourth is that the roller bearing is damaged and does not rotate. The reason may be too much dust accumulation or failure to overhaul and replace parts that have been severely worn and inflexible to rotate, resulting in increased resistance and slipping.

The fifth is the slipping phenomenon caused by insufficient friction between the rollers of the conveyor and the conveyor belt. The reason is mostly moisture on the conveyor belt or humid working environment. At this time, some rosin powder should be added to the drum.
