Pull Cord Switch on Belt Conveyor

Do you Know Installation and Adjustment of Pull Cord Switch on Belt Conveyor

Pull Cord Switch is commonly known as "emergency stop switch". When the belt conveyor need downtime, Pull cord switch action will stop the conveyor. Pull cord switch can be divided into manual reset and automatic reset. Automatic reset: after action, it can automatically return to the initial position, may lead to error start. Manual reset: after action, the self-locking device can maintain the operating position, it need to manually reset handle to make its return to the initial position.

Pull Cord Switch should be installed on both sides of the conveyor where has a maintenance channel, installation position should ensure that the maintenance person operates conveniently in the event of an emergency.

1.Pull Cord Switch is fixed on the rack.

2.The distance of the two switches on one side is about 50 m, the two switches are connected by the diameter 4mm of wirerope, elastic should be moderate.

3.To reduce the influence of the weight of wire rope on switches, we install supporting ring on the frame every 3 m to support the steel wire rope.

4.The other end of the rope is in tension spring (with rope buckle), In a way not affecting the normal use, using tightener to pull the rope tension on both sides, and to ensure that tension is balanced on both sides.

(Note: The climbing section of the conveyor, should try to shorten the Switch spacing distance and the pull rope length.)

Pay Attention to the Unbalance Motor Vibration Phenomenon of Vibration Table

Pay Attention to the Unbalance Motor Vibration Phenomenon of Vibration Table

On the surface of it, vibration motor will become a veritable vibration equipment, just need plus a few springs on the equipment, and put on a few motors, then it will be applied for vibration production? While it’s more difficult than what you see. Now PK Co., Ltd will give you the further insight about the unbalance vibration phenomenon of the vibration motor for vibration table.

The problem of uneven and unbalance that causes the vibration can never be solved when the vibration motor is running in the equipment. There is influence of the unbalanced vibration in the screening equipment, however, in the process of making the vibration table, the problem usually happens. We also always take less importance to the problem of the unbalanced force of vibration equipment in reality.

1.The problem of motor rotation can happen and the material will move on the surface of vibration table in the use of a single vibration motor on the vibration table.

2.The uniform vibration point of the vibration table will be changed in the use two vibrating motors. The counter rotation of two motors will result in the power counteraction in the middle of the vibration table. The vibration amplitude in the center of the table can’t be over 3mm if the vibration amplitude around the platform is 5mm.

PK Engineering Suggests Daily Care and Maintenance of Motorized Pulley

PK Engineering Suggests Daily Care and Maintenance of Motorized Pulley

Are you worried about maintaining and repairing motorized pulley during belt conveyoroperation? We are sure the following solution in four aspects will be a big help :

1. In order to create a good situation for normal operation, surrounding environment, fastening bolts, oil leakage, the cable should be checked before each start-up.

2. Start up the new pulley with inching running, then it will become normal gradually, machine vibration, noise, and temperature heating of each operating component should be checked after running for 10 minutes.

3. If oil leakage occurs to motorized pulley, two parts should be checked : one is oil seal, check it whether has wear and tear or deformation phenomenon, if any, please replace the cage oil seal timely; the other one is that the outlet mustn’t be blocked, if there is any blockage, the deposition of dust, grease and sundries shall be removed as soon as possible to ensure smooth access.

4. Regulation of the oil level height is one of the conditions to ensure the normal operation,so please check the oil level regularly.

Guide Rail Makes Tripper or Bucket Elevator Perform Better

Guide Rail Makes Tripper or Bucket Elevator Perform Better

Guide rail is made of metal or other material to become groove or ridge which is a device that can withstand, fix and guide mobile device or reduce their friction. Longitudinal groove or ridge on the surface of guide rail is used for guiding or fixing machine parts. Moreover, it is also known as sliding rail or linear guides, used in the occasion of linear reciprocating motion. It has a higher rated load and can assume certain torque. At the same time, high-precision linear motion can be achieved in the case of high load.

Guide rail provides a precise operation track for the conveyor tripper car. Matched with the belt conveyor, conveyor tripper car can achieve the aim of discharging materials at any points in the certain length of belt conveyor through moving back and forth on the guide rail.

In general, guide rail is installed in the head, tail and middle part of chain bucket elevator. Also, it is usually made of wear-resistant steel and its surface is quite smooth, so on the one hand it can lessen the friction between chain and guide rail and reduce components depreciation rates, on the other hand it can prevent the chain being off tracking, so as to achieve the purpose of conveying materials efficiently.

PK Machinery adopts the best quality guide rail which is manufactured by Ma'anshan Iron&Steel that is best rail manufacturer in China, and it is used for conveyor tripper car and bucket elevator.

 

What Reasons Cause Bearing Premature Failure

What Reasons Cause Bearing Premature Failure

Bearings is a small part which can fix and reduce load coefficient of friction during the processing of mechanical transmission. No matter vibrating screen, belt conveyor, bucket elevator or scraper chain conveyor, bearing is always one of their important parts. However, there is premature failure phenomenon during using. So we will introduce the cause of the bearing premature failure.

Improper installation

A big number of the premature failure bearings are cause by improper installation or the users haven’t realized to use correct installation tools. For correct and effective installation and disassembly,different installations may require mechanical, hydraulic or heating method. Based on professional engineering service technical knowledge, special tools and professional installation, you can get maximum machine trouble-free operation time.

Improper lubrication

Although we do not need to consider this problem if using” free- maintenance” bearing, there are still 36% bearing premature failures are due to incorrect technical parameters of lubricant. Inevitable result is that the bearing lacks of correct lubricant, which will fail prematurely. As bearing is the most difficult part to be accessed in the whole machine, neglecting lubrication may cause all kinds of problems

Pollution

Bearing is a precision part, they can not work efficiently if they can not keep away from the pollutant. At least 14% of all bearing premature failures are due to pollution problem.

1.The belt weigh scale should be installed in a linear segment of the belt conveyor.

2.The installation place should be where belt tension of belt conveyor change least, installing near the tail is ideal. When installed in the tail ,the distance between the belt weigh scale and the loading point should be not less than 5 ~ 9 meters, at the same time the distance between plate and The belt weigh scale shall not be less than 3 ~ 5 drag roller spacing.

3.When the belt weigh scale must be installed near the concave belt, should ensure that it is installed on the conveyor line segment and ensure that the entire loading place before and after the belt weigh scale at least four drag rollers are closely contacted with belt.

4.When the belt weigh scale must be installed in the vicinity of a convex arc curve, should ensure that there are no arc belt in the vertical direction between the loading point and the belt weigh scale .the arc segment must be 6 m or 5 times drag roller roller spacing outside the weighing segment dragged.

5.When the belt conveyor has mobile discharger, should comply with the requirements of the "(3)", at the same time ensure when running the belt centerline always match together with the belt weigh scale centerline.

6.To guarantee the accuracy of the belt weigh scale measurement, the belt conveyor should have only one loading point.

7.In order to ensure the measuring accuracy, the capacity of the belt conveyor should be in the range of 20 ~ 120% Qmax.
