About this document
Asymmetrical Tension Effects on Conveyor Belts by Carlos Pretell Rodriguez is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document analyzes how asymmetrical tension forces in a conveyor belt can impact the contact forces in the idler rolls within the idler housing. It describes how asymmetric tensioning of the conveyor belt can increase belt wear. The researchers investigated five measuring points on a test section of pipe conveyor belt under symmetrical and asymmetrical tensioning and used statistical analysis to analyze the impact of asymmetry. They also developed a new method to identify states of the belt during tensi
