What factors lead to unbalanced force on both sides of belt conveyor?

1. The installation error of the tensioning device of the belt conveyor causes the tension on both sides of the belt to be inconsistent, which causes the belt to run off. Improper installation or adjustment of the tensioning device is the most basic reason for the inconsistent force on both sides of the belt.
2. Deviation caused by uneven joint of conveyor belt. The belt vulcanization joint is misaligned or the belt itself is not straight, resulting in uneven tension on both sides of the belt. The belt deviates towards the side with large tension, and the most serious deviation occurs at the belt joint or the belt is not straight.
3. Deflection caused by belt looseness. After the conveyor belt has been running for a period of time, the belt will be deformed or aged due to stretching, which will reduce the tension of the belt, relax the belt, cause uneven distribution of stress in the belt, and also cause the belt to deviate to different degrees.
4. Deviation caused by uneven material distribution. If the belt does not deflect when it is idling, it will deflect when it is running under heavy load, which indicates that the materials are unevenly distributed on both sides of the belt. This kind of deviation is the most common in the actual use of the belt conveyor. The uneven distribution of materials is mainly caused by the incorrect falling direction and position of materials. If the mineral materials are deviated to the left, the belt is deviated to the right; vice versa.
5. The friction force between roller and idler on both sides of the belt is unbalanced, and the uneven pressure of rubber plates on both sides of the guide chute causes the inconsistent driving force and resistance on both sides of the belt, leading to belt deviation.
6. Deviation caused by sticking of roller and idler. After the belt conveyor has been running for a period of time, due to the viscosity of materials, some of them will stick to the roller and idler, which makes the diameter of the roller or idler become larger, causing uneven tension on both sides of the belt, resulting in belt deviation. The deviation caused by this factor generally occurs in short distance belt conveying.
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.
