    I Work at a waste water plant, we had issues with out belt tracking today and maintenance isn’t here on the weekends, this video helped me and my lead operator understand belt tracking and tension for our conveyer system. Although we have much bigger belts, we were able to adjust our tracking successfully. Thank you for this educational video!

    I can't stop thinking about what type of lightweight conveyor belt one should construct on the Moon for transporting excavated moon rocks and dust, while trying to reach Moon's Crust (to mine different minerals). You want conveyor belt and construction to not take too much of space and weight, as all the equipment you can lift to the outer space is limited!

    @guide2track460 2 года назад +2

    There is no mention of it in this video, but at least one of the rollers must have been crowned (or conical-cylindrical-conical). Otherwise tracking will not work in this conveyor, with this belt. Probably the drive roller is crowned which makes sense (and is usually done) since belt tension is highest where the loaded belt enters the drive roller.

    Conveyors very seldom just start tracking off on thier own. Most often it is an outside reason for the problem. Improper loading, buildup on tailpulley, return/troughing roller(s) not turning, belt traveling over buildup on return side, seized trainer. List goes on. Inspect conveyor head to tail to find the reason before doing any adjustments.

      Also, seized bearings in the snub rollers or the end pulleys can also affect the tracking of the belt. As said, tracking is a very tedious and time consuming process

    Where they bought a new conveyor table. About 6 foot by 4 foot and boy it make i noise and one side of it the belt is all jacked up where they did adjust it right or was in a rush. Now it makes this like ear deafening screech ever now and then. They said it was the best that they could it. It only 3 months old.. my point is this I may show them this video.... lol

    did you crown the drive pulley for tracking? you should vulcanize the belt rather than metal lace the lacing will over time ruin the pulleys especially aluminum...lastly your snub roll should move vertically for belt take up

    Never track with tensenor. You warp the belt. You just need to track with snub.

    • @bradmol9016
      @bradmol9016 2 года назад +2

      Some conveyors don't have snub rollers. Tracking with the tail pulley (tensioner) is okay, but instead of increasing tension to make the belt go one way, it's better to decrease tension on the side you want the belt to track to.

    the snub roll is completely useless unless you use it as a take up for belt stretch over time it is not a tracking pulley ever! the tail pulley is always the tracking pulley and should be minimal adjustment but your drive pulley needs to be crowned for sure

    • @pacee21
      @pacee21 Год назад

      incorrect. tracking on your snubbing rollers is the primary method of tracking. the tension carriage should only be for tensioning and then minor adjustments in belt fluctuations if you haven't got a straight belt say. The guy just tracking on the tension end will invariably just stretch the belt and then eventually just cause seizing of the drive or premature degradation of the belt.
      Also tension checking may be fine with the method advised on small belts but any long / wide or heavy belts the check should be distance of return strand of belt to frame over return roller and then distance check of 1/2 way between both return idler sets. The distance sag should deviance should be 2% of the belt idler to idler distance i.e. 2m idler return set means sag estimate should be 40mm.
      small belts you can get away with this rough way of tracking but on longer belts you will cause major issues. Source: 10+ years installing quarry / logistics conveyors systems with belt runs of up to 150m

    That belts too loose. His guide to tensioning is a joke. If you can get your hand under its all good????? Never heard that in my life and its quite frankly ridiculous. Belts have a optimal tension. Each belt is different but you do it the same way. First mark out 2 points for example 1 meter apart down the centre of the length of the belt. Then apply tension and measure the marks until they measure the set optimal tension.
    Depending on length, width and material type and application most belt require a extra 25mm of stretch for the small belts going upto metres of stretch in these big mining belts.
    All this info should be available on the belt manufacturer website.
    Also
    Don't get me started on how you tracked that thing.
    Trust me people he did what we all do ( I'm a belt fitter of 15 yrs) he just fiddled and farted about until it was good.
    Joking aside perfect central on all rollers tracking is seldom achieved and when it us its by fluke. Too many variants, cut of belt, how straight it the machine bed etc could go on my point is when taking a belt find the point where it naturally seems to stay( it'll never be smack bang in the centre) if you twiddle to much you'll be there forever.
