Mistake proofing of detracking conveyors

Posting a picture of your conveyor would help.

I don't understand if this is a roller conveyor, gravity or belt conveyor.

Most of the readers probably don't know what a bagging line or detracking issues. Or they call them something else.

Please provide more information.

Sir,

Im not registered on this site therefore i cannot post a picture.

However this is a roller type conveyor with idler rollers and return rollers.

The approx lengths of these conveyors are around 10-15 feet max.

By detracking i mean the belt not running on its proper path.

Bagging lines are basically smaller conveyors used for transferring of filled and stitched urea bags towards the trucks.

1. you may have a bad splice in the belt.

2. The bearings may need some shimming. You should measure between the opposite corners. the 2 measurements should be identical.

3. If you got a manual for this conveyor it should have information in there on how to train a belt so the belt doesn't wander from side to side.

The belt conveyors I worked on had bearings mounted on takeup's so the tension on each side of the belt could be adjusted. We always started out by having the length between the opposite corners be the same. The corners are where the bearings are located.
