There are many reasons for conveyor belt slippage during production and operation. Below we will talk about what we often see in car assembly line and how to deal with it:
The first is that the conveyor belt of the food assembly line is overloaded and exceeds the capacity of the motor, so it will slip. At this time, the transportation volume of conveyed materials should be reduced or the bearing capacity of the conveyor itself should be increased.
The second is that the start-up speed of the food assembly 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 drum, 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 drive 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.
