Handling method for conveyor line deviation

If the belt conveyor line deviates during use, the following checks should be conducted to determine the cause and make adjustments. The parts and handling methods that conveyor line manufacturers often inspect for belt deviation include:

(1) Check the misalignment between the transverse centerline of the carrier roller and the longitudinal centerline of the belt conveyor on the conveyor line. If the misalignment value exceeds 3mm, it should be adjusted using the long installation holes on both sides of the roller group. The specific method is which side the conveyor belt leans towards, which side of the roller group moves forward in the direction of the conveyor belt, or which side moves back.

(2) Check the deviation values of the two planes of the bearing seats installed on the head and tail frames of the conveyor line. If the deviation between the two planes is greater than 1mm, the two planes should be adjusted within the same plane. The adjustment method for the head drum is: if the conveyor belt deviates towards the right side of the drum, the bearing seat on the right side of the drum should move forward or the left bearing seat should move back; If the conveyor belt deviates towards the left side of the drum, the bearing seat on the left side of the drum should move forward or the right bearing seat should move back. The adjustment method of the tail drum is exactly the opposite to that of the head drum.

(3) The conveyor line checks the position of the material on the conveyor belt. If the material is not centered on the cross section of the conveyor belt, it will cause the conveyor belt to deviate.

If the material on the conveyor line deviates to the right, the belt will run to the left, and vice versa. When using, the material should be centered as much as possible. To reduce or avoid such conveyor belt deviation, a baffle can be added to change the direction and position of the material.
