What are the structures of portable radial stacking conveyor?

Aug 16, 2024

The portable radial stacking conveyor is an efficient material handling equipment, and its structure is mainly composed of the following parts:
1. Frame
The frame is the main structure of the portable radial stacking conveyor, which is usually welded from steel and has sufficient strength and stability. The bottom of the frame is equipped with a moving wheel, so that the conveyor can be easily moved between different working areas. The moving wheel generally uses a high-strength rubber wheel or polyurethane wheel, which has good wear resistance and shock absorption performance.


2. Conveying device
The conveying device is the core part of the portable radial stacking conveyor, mainly composed of a conveyor belt, a driving roller, a redirecting roller, and an idler. The conveyor belt usually uses a rubber belt or a plastic belt, which has good wear resistance and tensile strength. The driving roller is driven by a motor to drive the conveyor belt to operate and realize the conveying of materials. The redirecting roller is used to change the running direction of the conveyor belt, and the idler is used to support the conveyor belt and reduce the running resistance of the conveyor belt.


3. Stacking device
The stacking device is an important part of the portable radial stacking conveyor, which is mainly used to stack the conveyed materials. The stacking device is generally composed of a stacking arm, a stacking motor, a stacking sensor, etc. The stacking arm can be lifted and rotated as needed to accurately stack the materials at the designated location. The stacking motor drives the stacking arm to move through the transmission mechanism, and the stacking sensor is used to detect the position and height of the material to ensure the accuracy and stability of the stacking.


4. Control system
The control system is the brain of the portable radial stacking conveyor, which is mainly used to control the operation of the conveyor and the action of the stacking device. The control system is generally composed of PLC, touch screen, sensor, motor driver, etc. PLC is the core of the control system, and the automatic control of the conveyor and stacking device is realized through programming. The touch screen is used for human-computer interaction. The operator can set the operating parameters of the conveyor and the action instructions of the stacking device through the touch screen. The sensor is used to detect the operating status of the conveyor and stacking device, such as the speed of the conveyor belt, the position of the stacking arm, etc., and provide feedback signals for the control system. The motor driver is used to control the speed and direction of the motor to achieve precise control of the conveyor and stacking device.


5. Safety device
Safety device is an important guarantee for the portable radial stacking conveyor, which is mainly used to ensure the safe operation of the equipment and the personal safety of the operator. Safety devices generally include emergency stop buttons, safety guardrails, protective doors, etc. The emergency stop button is used to immediately stop the operation of the conveyor in an emergency, and the safety guardrails and protective doors are used to prevent operators from mistakenly entering the dangerous area and avoid safety accidents.


In short, the structure of the portable radial stacking conveyor is complex and consists of multiple parts. The various parts cooperate with each other to achieve efficient handling and stacking of materials. When using the mobile stacking conveyor, the operator needs to be familiar with the structure and performance of the equipment, and operate in strict accordance with the operating procedures to ensure the safe operation of the equipment and the accurate stacking of materials.
