What are the aspects of chain wear and sprocket wear?

1. Chain wear
a. Wear of flat ring engagement
The wear of the flat ring engagement is caused by the mutual extrusion of the vertical ring and the flat ring. As this is the connection part of the chain, the worn part is located inside the chain arc. If the worn ring chain continues to be used, the chain may break from both sides of the shoulder.
b. Flat ring straight edge engagement wear
As the friction between the chain socket and the flat ring is large, the chain and sprocket will be worn, and the worn part is located outside the arc. If the wear is severe, the flat ring will "gnaw".
c. Wear of vertical ring straight edge
During the transportation of circular chain, sliding wear will occur between vertical ring and materials, chute and sprocket. At the same time, the occurrence of wall flaking, roof caving and other phenomena will also have a greater impact on the opposite ring, which will aggravate the wear of the vertical ring.
2. Chain wheel worn
a. Worn sprocket chain socket
When the chain wheel of the scraper conveyor engages with the chain, due to poor lubrication conditions, there is a relatively large sliding movement at the engagement point. The flat ring will rub with the chain socket, causing wear. The pit in the center of the chain socket is caused by wear. At the same time, due to the existence of material abrasive particles, there will be abrasive wear, causing the surface of the chain wheel to peel off, resulting in many small holes.
b. Worn sprocket teeth
As the wear of chain wheel and chain is further aggravated, the distance between the two chain sockets is getting closer and closer, and the chain sockets of chain wheel are smoothed due to wear.
On October 30, Li Zhenbo, General Manager of Information Technology at Shandong China Coal Group and General Manager of Zhongyun Group, was invited to deliver a keynote presentation at an activity organized by the Teaching and Research Group of the Shandong Province Technical and Vocational Schools Admissions and Employment (Industry-Education Integration) Center. The event brought together 23 technical and vocational schools across the province and focused on innovative integration of artificial intelligence with technical and vocational education, sharing practical achievements from the front lines of industry and jointly exploring new approaches to cultivating versatile digital-skills professionals through school-enterprise collaboration.
Recently, the Zhongmei Zhiren AI system, independently developed by the Intelligent Research Institute of Shandong China Coal Group, has continued to evolve and improve. Drawing on core technologies including large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI agent workflow orchestration, multimodal vision, and audio and video generation, it is building a dedicated end-to-end AI platform for China’s industrial and mining supplies sector. The platform uses independently controllable AI technology to support the digital transformation of domestic and international trade and foster new quality productive forces.
Recently, three sets of software independently developed by Shandong China Coal Industry & Mining Supplies Group Co., Ltd. have successfully passed the review of the National Copyright Administration and obtained the Computer Software Copyright Registration Certificates. The three certified achievements are all built-in agent modules of the China Coal Zhiren AI System, namely: China Coal Zhiqing Image Management Tool V1.0, China Coal Construction Machinery Foreign Trade Independent Website System V1.0, and China Coal Mining Machinery Foreign Trade Independent Website System V1.0. This marks the continuous expansion of the ecological layout of the China Coal Zhiren AI System and the further consolidation of self-developed technical barriers.
Shandong China Coal Mining Support Equipment Co., Ltd. was founded in the 1990s with more than 1100 employees. It now has 53 professional companies, 3 Hong Kong companies, 1 British Cayman company and 1 American company. It is a large diversified industrial group integrating intelligent equipment manufacturing, e-commerce, software research and development and intelligent logistics, which is cultivated and supported by the Ministry of industry and information technology, the Ministry of Commerce, the development and Reform Commission, Shandong Province and Jining City.
