The service life of ordinary mesh belt is very short compared to stainless steel mesh belt because of our complex use environment, such as high temperature, corrosion and other environments. As we all know, the characteristics of stainless steel mesh belt are high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and high strength.

1、Use in the case of ultra-high temperature over 400 ℃

Mesh belt in normal operation, due to the heat of the conveyed material causes the temperature to rise, the strength of the conveyed mesh belt is gradually decreased with the rise of temperature. The use limit of stainless steel mesh belt will depend on the temperature generated by the friction between the material and the mesh belt rotation and the temperature of the material. Whether the temperature will affect the service life of the stainless steel mesh belt when it exceeds 400℃ please consult the stainless steel mesh belt manufacturer. Generally, the stainless steel mesh belt is high temperature resistant, so its service life will not be affected at 400℃, but due to different manufacturing process, the service life of the stainless steel mesh belt made by each manufacturer is different.

When using stainless steel mesh belts in high temperature situations, the following issues should also be considered.

a) The heat generated by the mesh belt due to friction in the work.

b) The difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion of the stainless steel mesh belt due to different manufacturing processes, and the possibility of thermal fatigue when different materials are welded together.

c) When the ambient temperature exceeds 400°C the expansion between the parts causes intermittent reduction should also be fully considered.

d) Creep.

(e) ordinary mesh belts working at high temperatures have thermal embrittlement, as do stainless steel mesh belts.

f) brittleness of carbon precipitation.

g) the effect of temperature changes on the use of stainless steel mesh belts (cooling and expansion).

h) the effect of high temperature environment on lubrication, silicon, graphite and molybdenum disulfide lubricants have good thermal resistance.

2, when the mesh belt is exposed to contain corrosive materials will cause adverse consequences.

First of all, the mesh belt parts will become finer and finer, resulting in accelerated wear, and the rust on the common mesh belt parts will also affect the flexible rotation of the stainless steel mesh belt hinges and rollers. When the stainless steel mesh belt works continuously in an acidic or alkaline environment, the parts will suffer from stress corrosion and crystal force corrosion.

When using mesh belts in corrosive environments, great attention must be paid to the selection of mesh belt parts materials. Whether the mesh belt with martensitic stainless steel series as parts will rust or not depends on the specific working environment. It is very useful to master the anti-corrosion technology to use the mesh belt properly in corrosive environment.

3、Use the mesh belt in the grinding environment

The use of mesh belts in a grinding environment can lead to particularly severe wear and tear. In order to ensure the service life of the mesh belts, care must be taken when using them to

a) The mesh belt can be avoided from being directly exposed to abrasive materials by installing a chain cover.

(b) When the mesh belt is exposed to abrasive materials, it is important to choose the right type of conveyor.

c) Reduce the chain speed as much as possible.

d) To reduce the pressure on the hinge consisting of the pin and sleeve of the mesh belt, please choose a larger size mesh belt.

e) Please use grease lubricant.
