Hannover’s Designed And Built
Hannover’s designed and built two research splice dynamic fatigue test machines, one for fabric and one for steel cord belt construction. In addition, ContiTech and DBT built identical machines based on the designs of Hannover’s Dr. Flebbe now with ContiTech..
These results then became the DIN 22101 standard “r” classifications for:
a) splice dynamics fatigue efficiency then = 0.359 (strength loss = 1/2.79 in one week)
b) degradation from age, factory and field installation error factors, et al = 1.00
c) acceleration and deceleration momentary factors = .0.400
d) running or working load = 1.00 = (basis for selecting the belt strength multiple)
Therefore, the steel cord SF = (running + starting + degradation) x (1/splice efficiency)
Based on this premise SF = (1.00 + 0.40 + 1.0) x 2.79 = 6.7:1 for steel cord ■
Super Screw Belt Splice for Metal Detectors
WA Belting Solutions are a major supplier of conveyor belting and belt fasteners.
One of our major sucess stories is the Super Screw belt splice, it can be used in many applications, temp resistant belts, abrasive resistant belts, fire resistant anti static belts and the new kid on the block, Anti Magnetic.
The anti magnetic can join any conveyor belt which is used on metal detectors without issue and fitted up within a couple of hours negating the needs for hot vulcanising equipment that cannot be put in place due to space restrictions.
Out goes hot vulcanising , expensive splices and downtime, enter Super screw. ■
