While a belt usually breaks shortly after the start of yield, it does not, however, have to break to be considered ‘failed’. Yield failure is the most common and easily avoided failure mechanism in metal conveyor belts. It occurs due to accidents, overloading, mis-installation, or mis-application. It is imperative to follow the manufacturer ...

Conveyor belt tracking, the process of aligning and managing a belt to maintain a specific path, is critical to creating the desired output of your system. When the belt drifts from one side to the other, also known as mistracking, your susceptible ...
Read More2019-12-2 Although some belts now are manufactured and pre-tensioned, almost a fit and forget, most v-belt drives need to be tensioned on installation and then re-tensioned within 24-48 hours. Over tension and under tension can contribute to belt failure. Never mix old and new belts on the same drive.

It is a common issue that can be caused by a large range of factors, such as material build up (carryback), roller/idler condition, pulley lagging condition or type and even the condition of the belt itself.
Read More2021-1-22 The conveyor belt will bend when it is rolled into the drum. When the number of bending reaches its fatigue limit, bending failure will occur. Small cracks will appear in the initial stage. Over time, the cracks will expand or tear, which will eventually cause the conveyor belt to break and cause work failure. 3. Failure caused by roller
