How to Operate and Maintain Buried Scraper Conveyor

How to Operate and Maintain Buried Scraper Conveyor

There are some options about that:

1.Should not stop the machine with load if there is no special condition.

Generally,we should stop the equipment when the material in the trough were discharged completely after we stop feeding the material.

2.It should be no-load running for a certain time when start the equipment every time, Then feed the material after the equipment working normally. We should keep feeding the material evenly, sudden feeding or over-load running is not allowed.

3.If the whole production line is consist of sets of conveyor, we should

start the last set first when start the whole system, then start the others one by one . The order will be opposite when stops.

4.During operating, we should protect the conveyor from the iron, large hard objects and impurities to avoid damage the equipment.

5.In general, the buried scraper conveyor should be minor repair every half year, medium repair every year and overhaul every three years. For overhaul the buried scraper conveyor, we should remove and clean all the spare part, replace all the wear part. For the motor and reducer, should be maintained and repaired according to their technical requirement.

6.Should keep all the bearing and driven device lubricated well. However, should not lubricate the conveyor chain, support guide rail, head wheel and tail wheel etc.

I hope you can collect some useful information.

Distinction Between Forging and Casting in Scraper Chain Processing

Distinction Between Forging and Casting in Scraper Chain Processing

It is a general machining process to use forging and casting in scraper chain processing. But do you know their differences? Today our PK Machinery will discuss this kind of knowledge detailedly.

With regard to forging, it makes use of a metal forming machinery to press on the metal blank so that let it get a certain mechanical properties, shape and size through plastic deformation.

With regard to casting, it is a kind of technology that makes metal to the required liquid and then pour into model. After having cooled and dealt, we can get casting with certain shape, size and performance.

Generally speaking, the performance of forging chain is superior to casting chain with the same materials, but the costs will be higher. Although the cost of casting chain will be lower, but it needs more materials and equipment as well as will generate dust, harmful gases and noise pollution. So we will choose forged chains as traction component mostly.
