En-masse Conveyor: Conveyor Blockage (Most Common Problem)
Author :
The buried scraper conveyor (En-masse conveyor) is a device that uses scraper chains to drag materials inside a closed shell for continuous transportation, and is widely used in industries such as grain, mining, and chemicals. Due to its complex working environment (such as dust, high temperature, and significant differences in material characteristics), various problems are prone to occur during actual operation. The following are common problems, their causes, and solutions:
1. Conveyor Blockage (Most Common Problem)
Phenomenon: Material accumulates within the shell, making it impossible to transport them forward normally, and even causing chain jamming and motor overload.
Common Causes:
Excessive feed volume: Exceeding the equipment's designed conveying capacity, resulting in material accumulation at the front end.
Abnormal material properties:
High humidity (such as viscous materials): Adherence to the scraper or shell walls, gradually causing blockage.
Oversized particles or impurities: Exceeding the clearance between the scraper and shell, causing chain jams.
Scraper chain failure: Loose chains and deformed scrapers result in insufficient pushing force and material retention.
Improper housing inclination: During tilted conveying, if the inclination is too large (exceeding the designed value), the material's downward velocity exceeds the chain's pushing velocity, causing accumulation.
Solution:
Control the feeding amount: Ensure that the feeding amount matches the equipment capacity through variable frequency speed regulation or feeding valve adjustment.
Pre treated materials: Dry high humidity materials, sieve to remove large particles/impurities.
Repair the chain/scraper: tighten the chain, replace the deformed scraper, and ensure a gap between the scraper and the shell (usually 5-10mm).
Adjust tilt angle: When conveying at a tilt angle, the tilt angle should be ≤ 20 ° (determined based on the material's resting angle).
