What are the connection methods of the conveyor belt?
There are two commonly used conveyor belt connection methods, namely hot vulcanization joint method and cold vulcanization joint method. Both methods have their own advantages and are the most commonly used methods at present. The process flow of the two operation methods is different, and the materials required are also different.
Among them, the cold joint method has fast joint speed and high joint efficiency, and is mostly used for joint processing of ordinary nylon and canvas conveyor belts, while the hot joint method has good joint continuity and higher bonding strength, and is mostly used for steel belts and PVG/PVC whole core belts joint handling.
As we all know, according to the different operating environments, the materials of conveyor belts selected by various enterprises are also different. Construction workers must "prescribe the right medicine" when making conveyor belt joints to ensure the quality and effect of joints.
For bulk materials that need to be transported over long distances, companies often choose "steel belts" with steel wire skeletons that are full of tension for material transport. When this kind of conveyor belt is jointed, because of its large tension, it needs to be processed by hot vulcanization joint. The construction personnel mostly choose the special joint glue of "steel wire belt", such as the commonly used sk823 hot vulcanized glue with RIT unvulcanized core glue and RIT unvulcanized surface glue.
Places such as coal mines and granaries have certain requirements on the fire and flame retardant properties of the conveying system, and most of them will use "whole core belts" with flame retardant properties for material transportation. When this kind of conveyor belt is jointed, because of the special material, it is necessary to select the special glue for the whole core belt for joint operation. The construction workers mostly choose the "whole core belt" special glue, such as the whole core belt special glue SK833, for joint operation, and use RIT hot vulcanized rubber.
Like ordinary cement plants and other industrial and mining industries, ordinary nylon belts and fabric belts may be used for material transportation. When this type of conveyor belt is used for joint processing, due to the relatively low strength of the belt body, it is recommended to choose a convenient and fast cold vulcanization method for joint processing. appropriate. The joint material is mostly cold adhesive with relatively high strength, such as using more two-component SK313 with RIT belt repair strip.
No matter what kind of joint processing the construction personnel perform, they need to choose the targeted glue for operation, so that after the joint of the conveyor belt, the advantages of the conveyor belt can be exerted and the life of the conveyor belt can be guaranteed.
