Selection principles of scraper chain

Scraper chain selection is mainly for the rational use of its structural type, chain pitch, blade pitch, scraper chain of materials and the like. In addition should be selected when the production capacity to meet the requirements, particular attention should scraper chain adaptability of the materials.

Scraper type often determines buried scraper conveyor conveying effect. The screed right choices, be satisfied with the delivery results; If you choose blade incorrectly can cause deterioration of conveying effect, can not even transport.
Type scraper blade choice is mainly to meet the conditions under the adaptability of materials, as far as possible to select the type of structure is relatively simple principle. Specifically selected, can be selected according to the material properties of the material viscosity, suspension and liquidity, machine groove width, conveyor layout and so on.

• pairs of conveying materials with better performance, giving priority to the use of a simple shape of the blade type, such as T-type, V-type, U-type; internal friction coefficient is small, the suspension is strong, mobility of materials should be used complex shape The blade, such as H-type.
• After delivery viscous or sticky larger absorbent materials, should adopt simple shape type, such as T-type, V-type, U-type, in order to reduce the material to adhere to the scraper, easy unloading and cleaning.
• delivery pressure knot strong chain or easily float material can be welded to prevent floating chain blade tilt.
• Machine groove width is smaller, the blade should use simple shapes. When transporting a bulk larger machine slot high density materials, in order to increase the rigidity of the blade, it can be used with a brace of O-type guillotine plate.
• buried scraper conveyor arranged horizontally (MS type), generally choose T, U-shaped or V-shaped blade; a vertical arrangement (MC type), generally V-shaped and U-selectable blade and are arranged for outward; Z-type arrangement (MA type), optional V-shaped blade, as introverted layout; buckle type arrangement (MK type), select V-shaped blade, as outgoing layout; flat annular arrangement (MP type), only You can choose L-shaped, outward arrangement; facade annular arrangement (ML type), optional V-shaped blade, as outgoing layout.

High performance conveyor-Buried Scraper Conveyor

     With regard to scraper conveyor, there are many types. Buried scraper conveyor belongs to it.The main features of buried scraper conveyor are that can be in a slant or vertical angle and operate together or individually. So it is universal. Buried scraper conveyor has a simple structure,light weight,small volume and good sealing. Also, it is easy to install or maintain. It not only can convey material in a horizontal angle,but also in a slant or vertical angle. What’s more, it can feed or discharge materials in many points. So its layout is very flexible. The working conditions can be changed markedly when it convey materials because the shell is enclosed.And then it can protect environment.

    We can solve the problem existed in medium plate which is made from steel through using ultra high molecular weight polyethylene. Thus, we can get plastic scraper conveyor. With regard to large-scale scraper conveyor, we can apply the method of steel-plastics compounding material. Using ultra high molecular weight polyethylene as lining, it can improve the abrasion resistance of large-scale scraper conveyor,and then prolong the service life, reduce the friction coefficient and bring down power consumption. It has great signific ance for large-scale scraper conveyor. Because of these features, buried scraper conveyor gets much attention of enterprises.

How to Design Buried Scraper Conveyor Scraper Chain to Minimize Trouble

 1. You should select the appropriate chain speed according to capacity and material properties, so that make the scraper chain run under reasonable load conditions. For the common material, scraper chainoperating speed range is generally 0.16 ~ 0.5m / s. You can choose a specific speed reference GB GB10596.1-89 standards and practical experience in the same industry units.

2. You should select the appropriate structure of scraper chain on the basis of delivery materials and transporting form. The selection principles are as following: in general, preferred forging chain, greater hardness of dust-like material should not be used bush roller chain, chain prone to floating material might as well use bush roller chain and double-plate chain. To ensure maximize the carrying capacity of scraper chain and avoid waste of energy and materials, you should be guaranteed under the condition that the scraper chain can bearing the maximum working load, choose the scraper chain closest to the required load and the maximum working load. 

3.  Select the chain of materials Scraper chain material must ensure a certain strength. In the long time work, insufficient rigidity will force the scraper chain produce plastically deformed scraper chain elongation, and chain in installation has been tensioned, allowed elongated room is little. This will make scraper conveyor bear a powerful additional load, which will inevitably bring damage to the chain. In other words, scraper chain stiffness shortage will make scraper chain obvious distortion in use. The ideal steel material is manufacturing performance not less than 45, scraper chain have to overcome a lot of friction, bearing a lot of dynamic load and static load, so after the scraper chain manufacturing and post-weld, it should be carried out heat treatment, make it has high strength, toughness and wear resistance characteristic.

Chain maintenance for Scraper Conveyor

All conveyor parts which may be subject to wear (wheels, chains, attachment, scraper bars) should be checked regularly for wear or damage. Chain contact surface are subject to normal wear, the extent of which is governed by chain quality, number of link movement, contact load and material handled. 

Wear in the contact areas reduces the chain thickness and thus has a direct relationship to service life. Ways to prolong the service life of the chain are as follow:

1.   Lubrication with lubrication oil, increases wear as it will form a grinding paste.

2.   Air and water washes or scrapers, which remove the material from the chain, drive and idling wheels reduce wear.

3.   Chain and attachments should be checked for damage following a conveyor overload.

4.  Chain replacement should always be combined with the replacement of all toothed wheels, or toothed rims, to ensure proper meshing of the chain.
