Clean the surface of the conveyor equipment for a period of time. When the equipment needs maintenance, it should be maintained by professional persons.



Troubleshooting of Flexlink Conveyor

  1. 1. Plastic chains are damaged

    There are several reasons for the damage of the flexible flat top chain. Piemēram, sometimes the load on the plastic chain conveyor is too large. Or the impact of the chain plate is relatively large. Papildus, it is possible that the chain plate tension is too large during installation.

  2. 2. Plastic chain conveyor belt deviation

    Vispārīgi runājot, the flexible chain plate is not prone to deviation. Protams, the flexible chain is loose during transmission. Šajā laikā, it will cause deviation.

  3. (1) Wear of sprocket. There is a certain deviation in the sprocket in use. This will cause abnormal meshing between the flexible chain plate and the sprocket. Tāpēc, try to choose suitable sprocket according to the model and size of the flexible chain conveyor. Then reduce the friction loss of the sprocket . Regular maintenance and inspection.(2) Another reason is the deviation of the flat top chain pitch. It is necessary to check the wear of the flexible chain and whether there are impurities.
  4. 3. The phenomenon of plastic flat top chain conveyor crawling

    What is the phenomenon of plastic chain crawling? When the flexible plastic chain is driven at a constant speed, the phenomenon of periodic move and stop or slow and fast.

  5. There are many reasons, mainly as follows:(1) The normal load is too large. Or the plastic chain conveyor is too long. Solution: When designing, the length of flexlink conveyor should not exceed 15 meters as much as possible. When longer than 15 metri, it is advisable to connect by several conveyors. Tajā pašā laikā, the load of the flat top chain conveyor must be reasonable and not overloaded.
  6. (2) The tooth profile parameters of the drive sprocket are unreasonable. Tāpēc, the pitch of the flexible plastic chain is not properly matched with the drive sprocket. So it will be very easy to produce crawling or teeth jumping phenomenon. The solution is to correct the tooth profile of the drive sprocket. Make it and the pitch of the chain plate must be consistent.(3) Insufficient rigidity of the plastic conveyor chain plate will also cause crawling. In order to save costs, some manufacturers blindly use low-rigidity cheap POM materials. The solution is to choose high-rigidity POM chains.
  7. (4) The change in friction is also an important reason for the phenomenon of flat top chain plate crawling. When the conveyor has too many joints and curves, if the handling is not good, the friction will change greatly. Šajā laikā, it is easy to produce crawling phenomenon. The solution is that the arc design should be reasonable. When it must make a sharp turn, try to use a curve wheel. This can reduce friction. If there are no restrictions on sharp bends, try to use a smooth design with large arcs.

    Other reasons:

    (5) Papildus, the rigidity of the flat top chain conveyor frame will also have a certain impact. The beams of the flexlink conveyor system should use aluminum profiles. It will ensure the high rigidity of the conveyor beam. Tajā pašā laikā, the support of the beam should be fixed firmly.
