  • Reasons for unsuccessful cold splicing

    Reasons for unsuccessful cold splicing

    Wind can destabilize the arc zone, cold can slow batteries and cause inconsistent sleeve shrinking, dust can contaminate clamps and end-faces, and humidity can create invisible moisture films that show up as sudden loss spikes. Possible corrective steps are includ d excessive heat. This is caused by either the temperature being too high (>170°C) or the cure cycle ubber hardness. Ultimately the rubber chains break down, the hardness drops and the rubbe nizing process. The article presents the results of strength parameter tests. THE WEAKEST POINT The area where the open ends of a conveyor belt are joined together to create one continuous loop (better known as the splice joint) is, almost without exception, the weakest point of any conveyor belt. In fact, it is estimated that nearly 80 percent of all conveyor stoppages are. In our experience, splicing belt failures typically occur. Already a CB Insights customer? Sign in.
