On high-speed belt conveyor lines, it is crucial to prevent safety hazards caused by items sliding and splashing.
First, start with the design and selection of the belt. You can choose a belt material with a certain friction and anti-slip texture on the surface to increase the adhesion between the items and the belt. At the same time, make sure that the width and length of the belt are suitable for the size of the conveyed items to prevent the items from sliding off the edge of the belt during the conveying process. For some special shapes or items that are easy to roll, you can consider installing side baffles or guardrails on the belt to limit the range of movement of the items and prevent them from rolling off.
In the layout and installation of the conveyor line, a steady slope and a suitable curve radius should be maintained. Avoid excessive slopes that cause the items to slide faster, and avoid sharp curves that cause the items to be thrown out due to centrifugal force. Reasonably set the support structure of the conveyor line to ensure its stability and reduce the impact of vibration and shaking on the items.
In terms of operation and management, operators are strictly trained to be familiar with the performance and operating procedures of the conveyor line. When loading items, make sure that the items are neatly placed and stable, and avoid stacking too high or unstable center of gravity. For some fragile or dangerous items, special packaging and fixing methods can be used to increase their safety during transportation.
In addition, installing monitoring equipment and sensors is also an effective measure. By real-time monitoring of the status of items on the conveyor line, once there are signs of slipping or splashing, an alarm can be issued in time and corresponding measures can be taken, such as automatically stopping the conveyor line or adjusting the running speed. At the same time, regularly inspect and maintain the conveyor line, replace worn belts and parts in time, and ensure that the equipment is always in good operating condition.
In short, through reasonable design, correct operation and effective management, the high-speed belt conveyor line can effectively prevent the safety hazards of items slipping and splashing, ensure the safety of personnel and equipment, and improve production efficiency.
