Belt conveyor is composed by two endpoint pulleys and a closed conveyor belt. The pulley that drives conveyor belt rotating is called drive pulley or transmission drum; the other one–only used to change conveyor belt movement direction–is called bend pulley. Drive pulley is driven by the motor through reducer, and conveyor belt dragging relies on the friction drag between the drive pulley and the conveyor belt. The drive pulleys are generally installed at the discharge end in order to increase traction and be easy to drag. Material is fed on the feed-side and landed on the rotating conveyor belt, then rely on the conveyor belt friction to be delivered to discharge end.
Especially for the long distance belt conveyor can transport bulk materials or bagged goods, such as stone, sand, coal, concrete, cement, gravel, fertilizer, mineral ore, limestone, coke, sawdust, wood chip, bulk material, grain, corn flakes, carbon black, component/part, etc.
The Features and Advantages are as follows:
Features:
1) Long distance
2) Easy maintenance
3) Steady operation
4) Convenient loading and unloading
5) Wide applications
Advantages:
The advantages of belt conveyor are
1.Large conveying capacity
2.Long conveying distance
3.Low horsepower compared with other types of conveyor
4.Low cost of operating and maintenance
5.Stable performance and reliable operation
6.High universality and easy maintenance
7.Labour saving
8.No product degradation during conveying process
9.Conveyor can have changes in elevation (horizontal, inclined or combination)
10.Weight belt section can be added for continuous product weighing
11.Belt conveyors can pivot at one end allowing the discharge to be moved over an arc (radial stacking).
