Conveyor Belt is widely used in industrial applications to transport various materials, especially in industries such as mining, construction, and metallurgy, where conveyor belts are subjected to great tension and repeated buckling stress. In such high-intensity application environments, the performance of the conveyor belt depends not only on the material selection of its surface rubber and fabric core, but also greatly depends on the quality and characteristics of the rubber layer. This article will explore the key role of the rubber conveyor belt's rubber layer in high-tension situations and its importance under repeated buckling.
Role of the rubber layer in high-tension situations
In high-tension application environments, conveyor belts need to withstand huge forces from many aspects, including the weight of the material, the weight of the conveyor belt, and the operating resistance of the conveying system. The rubber layer plays a vital role in this process. First of all, the rubber layer has excellent adhesion, which tightly combines the surface rubber of the conveyor belt with the fabric core to ensure that the adhesion between the layers is strong enough to prevent interlayer separation or breakage under high tension.
In addition, the adhesive layer must have good tensile strength and ductility so that it can maintain structural integrity under high tension and will not break or deform easily. By selecting rubber compounds with excellent performance, the conveyor belt can still maintain good mechanical properties when subjected to high tension, which is crucial to the durability and reliability of the conveyor belt.
Importance of adhesive layer in repeated buckling
In the actual application of conveyor belts, repeated buckling is a common form of stress, especially when the conveyor belt passes around rollers or corners. This repeated buckling stress can easily cause fatigue of the conveyor belt material, thereby reducing the service life of the conveyor belt. The design and material selection of the adhesive layer are particularly important for dealing with this repeated buckling stress.
The small buckling stress of the adhesive layer means that it can minimize the accumulation of internal stress during repeated buckling and reduce material fatigue caused by buckling. At the same time, the good fatigue resistance of the adhesive layer can effectively reduce the fatigue damage caused by long-term use, thereby extending the service life of the conveyor belt. This characteristic of the adhesive layer is particularly important for conveyor belts that need to be bent frequently.
