How much do you know about the types and uses of conveyors?

Belt conveyors are composed of conveyor belts, rollers, drums, and devices such as driving, braking, tensioning, redirecting, loading, unloading, and cleaning.
Conveyor belts: Commonly used are rubber belts and plastic belts.
Types and uses of conveyors:
1. Belt conveyors are composed of conveyor belts, rollers, drums, and devices such as driving, braking, tensioning, redirecting, loading, unloading, and cleaning. Conveyor belts are commonly used in rubber belts and plastic belts. Rubber belts are suitable for working environment temperatures between -15 and 40°C. The material temperature does not exceed 50°C. The inclination angle of upward conveying bulk materials is 12° to 24°. Patterned rubber belts can be used for large-angle conveying. Plastic belts have the advantages of oil, acid, and alkali resistance, but poor adaptability to climate, easy to slip and age. Bandwidth is the main technical parameter of belt conveyors.
2. The screw conveyor is generally composed of three parts: the conveyor body, the inlet and outlet, and the drive device;
The spiral blades of the screw conveyor have three forms: solid spiral surface, belt spiral surface and blade spiral surface. Among them, the blade spiral surface is relatively less used and is mainly used to convey materials with high viscosity and compressibility. This type of spiral suspension surface has and completes the functions of stirring and mixing materials during the conveying process.
3. The series of buried scraper conveyor products are widely used in metallurgy, building materials, electricity, chemical industry, cement, ports, docks, coal, mining, grain and oil, food, feed, and other industries and departments.
Features of buried scraper conveyor:
1. The equipment is often used for horizontal conveying of granular and powdery materials, and can also be tilted within a 150-degree angle. Therefore, on the basis of single-point feeding and discharging, it can also be multi-point feeding and multi-point discharging. It has outstanding characteristics in conveying toxic, explosive, high-temperature and easy-to-fly materials, improving workers’ operating conditions and reducing environmental pollution.
2. The machine has the characteristics of long service life, stable operation, small structure size, large conveying capacity, low energy consumption and low material damage rate.
