There are usually three different methods for repairing damaged conveyor belts:
1. Local hot vulcanization repair
This method utilizes professional vulcanization machines to re sulfurize damaged areas in a short period of time. This method is particularly suitable for areas with only slight wear, as it can quickly restore the normal use of the conveyor belt. However, it should be noted that hot vulcanization repair requires specialized equipment and a relatively long time, so it is not suitable for large-scale repair work.
2. Local cold vulcanization repair
This method uses efficient repair materials, such as specially designed conveyor belt repair agents. Compared with hot vulcanization, the process of cold vulcanization repair is faster, and the repaired area has stronger wear resistance. In addition, due to the use of cold treatment, the strength and elongation of the material are maintained while reducing viscosity, making this method more suitable for large-area repairs.
3. Local cold bonding repair
In this method, we use repair strips with high strength and excellent wear resistance for repair. This repair method is easy to operate and can quickly complete the repair process without long waiting times. It is particularly suitable for dealing with long-distance scratches, punctures, and edge wear on conveyor belts. The specific operational steps include cleaning the damaged area, applying specialized adhesive, firmly adhering the repair strip to the damaged area, and using a compaction roller for final compaction treatment.
