The Advantages and Disadvantages of Belt Conveyor CST System

As an enterprise manufacturing mining equipment, the belt conveyor CST system developed serves for large-scale belt conveyors, which integrates deceleration, clutch and speed governing.
Advantages:
The controllable soft start and soft stop could be precisely realized according to the presupposed curve, which makes belt conveyor run smoothly; The reaction to transient velocity is quick and stable, which reduces the belt tension and increases safety factor of the belt by about 1.9; The output rotating speed could be adjusted on a large scale and steady rotating speed could be adjusted from 10~100%, which provide a good condition for installation, adjustment, maintenance; The power balance performance is good and balance quality is less than 2%; The dynamo could start non loaded, which reduces the impact of the power grid; There are many advantages such as reliable performance, low failure rate, high usability indicator and long service life; It has high transmission efficiency reaching 95.5%; The moment limiter is fixed on the output end of CST, which makes belt conveyor CST system have two-way protection function to reducer and loading equipment. In this way, loading state is changed and then the service life of equipment parts is increased.
Disadvantages:
The price is expensive and special-propose oil must be replaced regularly with high costs; The control system is complex and needs great maintenance work; Backstop and detent cannot be fixed on high speed shaft and low speed shaft; The spare parts need to be imported, which brings prompt maintenance a lot of difficulties.
