To avoid the conveyor belt joint to crack or breaks could start it from the several aspects.

  Choosing the correct conveyor belt and the type of joint: According to the working ambient and the characteristics of the materials, choose the conveyor belt with good properties such as wear resistance, aging resistance and corrosion resistance. Choosing the properly joint method such as the hot vulcanized joints, mechanical joints make sure the strength of the joint is high and stability.

Optimizing the conveyor belt system design:

  Design the tension of the conveyor belt properly, avoid the tension is too much that lead to uneven force at the joint. Choosing the appropriate diameter of the roller ro reduce the bending stress at the roller of the conveyor belt. Making sure the conveyor belt won not be subjected from excessive friction and impact during the operation.

Operating properly and maintenance:

  During the operation should be avoid start and stop the engine frequently, to reduce the impact to the conveyor belt joint, inspecting the conveyor belt regularly, when cracks or abnormal situations of the joint are found, they should be dealt with in time and the conveyor belt should be cleaned to prevent the remaining materials residues from causing wear to the joint.

Improve the quality of the joint constructions:

  For the hot vulcanized joint make sure the temperature of the hot vulcanized, time and pressure parameters need to be controlled in a reasonable range. The joint should be flat, no impurities ensure the quality of the joint.

After finishing the joint construction, the necessary strength and stability must be tested.

Strengthen the maintenance and the replacement of the conveyor belt:

  Regularly lubricated and maintained the conveyor belt, extend its using life. For the aging seriously or the damaged conveyor belt need to replaced in time, avoid the problem at the joint caused by the entire properties degradation. In a summary, to avoid the cracks and the breaks phenomenon occurred on the conveyor belt need to be considered the type of conveyor belt, system design, operation maintenance, joint construction and replacement, etc. By taking these measurements could improve the stability and the using life of the conveyor belt effectively.
