How to Fix a Rubber conveyor belt?

 

When production is going on, any signs of exhaustion on a Rubber conveyor belt will cause you an instant headache. If a conveyor belt rips suddenly, it is critical to avoid the prolonged downtime and expensive repairs that come with bringing the conveyor belt back into service. Whether the issue is minor or major a longitudinal tear/a slight puncture/soft spot/ even a hole there are rip repair procedures that can temporarily maintain the integrity of the broken belt and return it to service with limited downtime.

When it comes to making repairs, there are a lot of choices to remember. These repairs depend on belt material, industry, and the amount of space available. We are leading Rubber conveyor belt Manufacturers in India.

 


 

Seam repair methods:

·        Vulcanization:It uses heat&pressure to patch tears in your belt. It’s the most effective repair method and refers to both thermoset rubber&thermoplastic belts.

·        Metal fasteners:It is the most popular solution because it’s simple&easy. By using metal fasteners, you can stitch your belt together. Although this is a quick fix, it’s not as reliable and long-lasting as vulcanization.

·        Cold curing: It is often used for gouges/scoring on your belt. It involves a cement made of a base compound and curing agent and applied as a paste. It is used where there are space limitations and regular vulcanization equipment cannot fit.

How to Prevent Conveyor Belts Problems

Preventing issues before they emerge is the safest way to keep the conveyor system running smoothly. This technique necessitates constant diligence, and it allows you to inspect your system daily for any signs of abnormal wear or any items that are out of the ordinary.

Conveyor belt seam repair keeps your belt moving until a permanent repair can be performed during scheduled downtime. For more information on our Bucket Elevator Belt, contact us today!
