Belt Conveyor

In industrial production, belt conveyors can be used as the link between production machinery and equipment to form continuous production, so as to realize the continuity and automation of production links, improve productivity and reduce labor intensity.

The belt conveyor can be widely used in mining, metallurgy, coal, transportation, hydropower, and other departments to transport bulk materials or finished items.

Working principle

Working Principle

Friction-driven, Closed-loop Operation

A looped belt serves as both traction and carrier. The motor drives the drive drum through a reducer; drum–belt friction pulls the belt forward continuously. Maintained under tension by the tensioner, the belt loops around the drive and return drums, with idlers supporting it along the run to prevent sagging and misalignment.

Troughed Support, Continuous Flow

Stone drops from the loading chute onto the carrying side, where troughed idlers cradle the belt into a trough that keeps the material centered and prevents spillage. The stone rides on the belt by friction, and discharges at the head drum by inertia and gravity, while the belt returns around the tail drum—repeating the cycle for continuous, high-volume conveying at low incline.

Belt Conveyor - FAQ

Q1: How does a stone belt conveyor work?

A stone belt conveyor uses a looped belt as both traction and carrier. A motor drives the drum through a reducer, and drum–belt friction pulls the belt forward continuously. Stone is loaded onto the carrying side through a chute, troughed idlers cradle the belt into a trough to keep material centered, and the material discharges at the head drum by inertia and gravity while the belt returns for another cycle.

Q2: What is the maximum incline angle for a stone belt conveyor?

For ordinary flat belt conveyors, the practical incline is usually limited to about 16°–18°, because rounded stone tends to roll or slide backward on the belt. Steeper angles require a deep trough belt, sidewall belt, cleated belt, or corrugated edge design to prevent material rollback.

Q3: Where are stone belt conveyors used?

They are widely used in quarries, sand and gravel plants, crushing and screening stations, cement plants, mining operations, concrete batching plants, and aggregate stockpiles—basically anywhere crushed stone, sand, ore or other bulk materials need continuous, high-volume transport between equipment or silos.

Q4: Can the belt width, length and capacity be customized?

Yes. Belt width, belt speed, idler trough angle, overall length, incline angle and drive power are selected based on material size, lump weight, throughput (t/h) and site layout. Wear-resistant cover rubber and impact idlers are recommended at the loading point to handle the shock and abrasion of falling stone.

Q5: What maintenance does a stone belt conveyor need?

Routine checks include belt tension and tracking, drum and pulley lagging, idler rotation, belt cleaning by scrapers, and lagging wear. Key wear parts are the belt cover rubber, idlers, cleaning blades and drum lagging. Keeping the belt properly tensioned and centered prevents slip, spillage and edge damage, and extends belt life significantly.
