Maintenance and Care

Pipe conveyor belts are widely used in bulk material handling applications across mining, power plants, cement, ports, and more. To ensure long-term reliability and performance, regular maintenance is essential. Below are key care guidelines:

1. Regular Inspection
Conduct visual inspections at least twice a day. Focus on wear, cracking, misalignment, or physical damage. System checks should also be done before and after each operation.

2. Belt Alignment Adjustment
If twisting or off-center movement occurs during operation, inspect and adjust the idler arrangement and tensioning devices to maintain proper belt tracking under all loading conditions.

3. Cleaning and Lubrication
Clean the rollers, supports, and belt surface regularly to avoid material buildup and mechanical wear. Lubricate rotating parts such as bearings and rollers at scheduled intervals.

4. Tension and Splice Check
Ensure the belt tension is within the recommended range to prevent slippage or over-stretching. Pay special attention to splices for signs of tearing, delamination, or failure.

5. Storage and Spare Management
Store spare belts vertically in a dry, ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Rotate stored belt rolls periodically to prevent deformation.

6. Safety Training
Operators should receive professional training to understand system design and correct operation practices, minimizing risks of accidents and extending service life.
