Small Belt Conveyor Lines: The Precision Pulse of Flexible Manufacturing

## I. The millimetre parameter revolution: the underlying logic of the efficiency leap
The performance boundaries of small belt conveyor lines are defined byThree core parametersDefinition, which directly determines production line effectiveness:

  • ​Flatness controlThe flatness of the top surface of the roller needs to be ≤0.15mm/m, and the straightness error of the whole line <1mm/m, to ensure no vibration transmission of the precision components.
  • ​Dynamic load-bearing breakthroughNew energy motor production line requirements per metre load ≥ 150kg, speed adjustable range of 0-15m/min, suitable for 150kg-class workpiece high-speed flow
  • ​beat compressionSpeed chain structure compresses assembly cycle time to 90 seconds, increasing efficiency by 40% compared to conventional conveyors.

​personal insight: Parameter design is shifting from "static compliance" to "static compliance".Dynamic adaptation. The Xinggang case shows that foundation settlement can lead to differences in energy consumption of up to 181 TP3T for the same type of line body, which will need to be integrated in the futureReal-time horizontal calibration systemResponding to micro-environmental variables.

Small belt conveyor line three questions and answers


​Q1: Why is it necessary to upgrade the carrying structure of new energy production lines?​




​Material Density RevolutionIt is the core motive: new energy vehicle motor adopts NdFeB permanent magnets, the weight of a single piece increases by 36%, and the traditional 110kg class wire body easily leads to roller deformation. Super capacitor buffer technology can absorb the instantaneous impact energy to avoid overload shutdown.




​Q2：How to solve the static electricity problem in clean room?​




​Three-Proof Systemis the key:


    

  • Material protection: 316L stainless steel frame + anodised surface treatment
    • 

  • Dynamic Drain: Embedded conductive rails export charge in real time
    • 

  • Environmental control: 45% constant humidity system suppresses static electricity generation
