Thank you for watching...didn’t know this video would get this much traffic. Take a look at some of our other videos as we try to bring you in to our blue collar lifestyle.
Eugene Rodriguez right on! Thanks for watching. We do a little bit of everything and just so happens this was a good day to video us installing a belt.
Great job and great camerawork. Tell your plant they gotta upgrade off those Luff idlers and Superior pulleys. Go with some PPI quality pulley and idlers. :P
Could you use a slightly smaller & temporary bridge piece with attachments installed on each end, and hook it up to old and new belts? Let the old belt pull up the new? Or is there no room at the tail end to remove old belt once it comes off? I use these in flat wire belting and 150-200 weight belts, but curious about monster belts like this. Is there a reason not to have new belt cut to length and lacing pre-installed?
@@timmymims6946 when changing out an old bent we will piggy back it and remove old belt as it pulls the new one. This was the first belt to go on the system. We didn’t have or didn’t want to rent a roll up machine and had the fork lifts to just hang it. Definitely using a roll off or winder works great. As far as cutting to length it’s just better to splice in place. This conveyor wasn’t designed. It was built in place from point A to point B. So no real drawings. Also if for some reason the bent gets hung up or rips the holes or is a few feet short somehow, then the precut and drilled was a waist. Also there will be some stretch in these belts over time and will need to be cut and respliced. Hope I was able to answer your questions.
Interesting, what type of belt is this? And weight? Is there adjustment on each end or just 1? Even with drawings I measure with around pulleys with them sucked in & account for 1-2% stretch to make sure, and on heavy load belts like this maybe 4% …i distribute for PCI Mfg & few other places
I do this same work at the mill I work at it’s right outside of Philadelphia unfortunately I don’t get paid that well but I love it maybe one day I’ll be getting better $
Soya Cake we just put the camera on the front for fun and thought it would look cool in the video like you’re getting a prospective you are taking a ride on the belt. Have to take it off because once it rolls over the head pulley it will then be flipped over and hit all the return idlers and get knocked off. Thanks for watching! We try to put out new videos showing what all we do and make them fun to watch.
I 'm mechanical technician conveyor..16 years work in mining.. by theway where is the location mining? And what is this mine? Good job and always succesfull🙏

I’m a belt tech too but I get paid like shit what company do you work for
@@danielmccauley129i splice belt for motion industries. We get paid very well here
@@preston1111 I buy pulley bearings through you guys sometimes up here in Washington didn’t know you guys could break out a belt!
I like it look like a good groups of guys out there makin it happen
used to do belts in Maine. brings me back!!
How many feet of conveyor was that? What size cable did you use to pull that?
That was awhile back so I don’t remember. Probably around a 200’ conveyor and I’d assume 3/8” cable.
i wish we could film at the package facility i work at. we work with a lot thinner belts but it’s a lot tighter spaces. cool to see another process

My boss would send 3 people to do something like that. We be dog ass tired when we done but we get it done
Just finished putting a belt with my crew today lol we in texas aswell stay warm brothers Millwright work!
Weather is crazy right now!! Stay safe!
Try hooking the cable to a 8’ 2x6 board and sled it down the topside, saves a lot of time especially if the hoods are already on.
I miss you working with you Mike its ray vigil

Where are you located
South/Central Texas
Why did you have a camera in the front, while some one is following the belt clamp? Why did you remove it?
