Belt line is actually a layout form of belt assembly line in production. Due to factors such as the workshop and product processing technology, the conveyor line is required to change its running direction at a certain location, and this production form of assembly line can be called a turning belt assembly line.
Let's talk about two forms of design for the lower belt conveyor at the turning point. One is a small turning conveyor made of belt conveyor; Another method is to create a small drum conveyor for transitional conveying. Two different forms of design are designed to achieve the same goal in terms of functionality, that is, to transition products from one direction to continue operating in another direction.
Although functionally identical, due to the structural differences between the drum line and the belt line, there is a significant difference in the processing of products between the two. The belt line is suitable for the processing and assembly of small parts, loose parts, and loose objects; The gap between the roller lines is large, making it unsuitable for processing loose items and small pieces. Compared to larger items and bags, drum conveyor is suitable for conveying.
As for which method of turning design to choose, it still needs to be based on the processed product. In addition to the two introduced in the article, there are also other turning designs, such as designing a workbench or rotating table at the turning point. The design of non-standard products has great flexibility, but this flexibility is still built on the basis of the product, and separating from the product design will only lead to the collapse of the entire project.
