Rubber conveyor belt joint method

All conveyor belts must be connected in a circular shape before they can be used, so the quality of the conveyor belt joints directly affects the service life of the conveyor belt and whether the conveyor line can run smoothly and smoothly. The commonly used methods for connecting conveyor belts include mechanical joints, cold bonding joints, hot vulcanization joints, etc. 

Mechanical Joint 
Generally refers to the use of belt buckle joints, which are convenient and economical. However, the efficiency of the joints is low and they are prone to damage, which has a certain impact on the service life of conveyor belt products. In PVC and PVG whole core flame-retardant and anti-static conveyor belt joints, this joint method is generally used for products below grade 8. Connecting with a buckle is equivalent to 28% -45% of the strength of the conveyor belt itself. 

Cold Adhesive Joint 
Cold adhesive is used for the joint. This joint method is more efficient and economical than mechanical joints, and should have a good joint effect. However, in practice, due to the difficulty in controlling the process conditions and the significant impact of adhesive quality on the joint, it is not very stable. Using cold adhesive to bond is equivalent to 40% -55% of the strength of the conveyor belt itself. 

Hot Vulcanization Joint 
Practice has proven that it is the most ideal joint method, which can ensure high joint efficiency, is also very stable, has a long joint life, and is easy to master. However, there are disadvantages such as complicated process, high cost, and long joint time. Using mechanical hot vulcanization bonding is equivalent to 60% -80% of the strength of the conveyor belt itself.
