Maintenance And Operation Of Belt Conveyor In Concrete Mixing Plant

Maintenance And Operation of Belf Conveyor In Concrete Mixing Plant

The belt conveyor used in the concrete mixing plant is a key equipment used to efficiently transport concrete raw materials to the mixer. To ensure the normal operation of the conveyor and extend its service life, the following are brief introduction of belt conveyor as well as maintenance and usage specifications for the belt conveyor.

The Function And Composition Of A Belt Conveyor

Belt conveyors are mainly used to transport concrete raw materials (such as aggregates, cement, etc.) from storage areas to mixers. It consists of conveyor belt, conveyor frame, rotating drum, driving device, tensioning device, etc.

Working Principle Of Belt Conveyor

1. Conveyor belt: composed of wear-resistant and high-strength rubber and fiber reinforced materials, it has the characteristics of strong load-bearing capacity and good tensile strength.

2. Conveyor frame: Provides a structure to support and fix the conveyor belt, ensuring smooth and reliable operation of the conveyor belt.

3. Rotating drum: The drum installed on both sides of the conveyor frame drives the operation of the conveyor belt through a transmission device.

4. Driving device: mainly composed of an electric motor, reducer, and coupling, providing power to the rotating drum and driving the conveyor belt to run.

5. Tensioning device: used to adjust and maintain the appropriate tension of the conveyor belt to ensure its smooth operation.

Maintenance Operation Instructions For Belt Conveyors

1. Regularly check the wear and tear of the conveyor belt. If any damage or severe wear is found, it should be replaced in a timely manner.

2. Regularly check the working status of the driving device and tensioning device to ensure their normal operation and appropriate tension.

3. Regularly clean the accumulation on the conveyor belt to avoid blocking or blocking the conveying process.

4. Regularly lubricate the drum bearings and transmission devices to ensure their normal operation.

5. Regularly inspect the fasteners of the conveyor frame and support structure to ensure their stability and reliability.

Operating Instructions For Belt Conveyors

1. Operators should be familiar with the structure, working principle, and safety operating procedures of belt conveyors, and personnel without professional knowledge are strictly prohibited from operating equipment.

2. Before starting and stopping the conveyor, the surrounding environment and equipment should be checked for safety to ensure that personnel and equipment are not harmed.

3. Before loading concrete raw materials, ensure that the conveyor is in normal working condition without any abnormal noise or vibration.

4. During normal operation, operators must strictly follow the operating procedures and are prohibited from reaching their hands or other objects into the conveyor belt or approaching rotating parts.

5. Before stopping the machine, the residue on the conveyor belt should be cleaned to ensure that the equipment is clean and tidy before the next use.

6. Regularly inspect and maintain equipment to ensure the reliability and safety of the conveyor.

Conclusion

The belt conveyor used in concrete mixing plants plays an important role in the concrete production process. By adhering to the maintenance and usage standards of belt conveyors, it is possible to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and improve work efficiency. Regular maintenance and inspection are the key to maintaining the normal operation of equipment and extending its service life. At the same time, correct operating methods and safety measures are also important guarantees to prevent accidents from occurring. When using a belt conveyor, it is necessary to always be vigilant and follow relevant regulations to ensure safe and reliable operation.
