Component Specifications

Definition
Cover/attachment points are precisely engineered mounting interfaces integrated into conveyor belt or chain structures, designed to securely fasten protective covers, dust shields, safety guards, and various accessories. These points provide standardized connection locations that maintain structural integrity while allowing modular attachment of components without compromising the conveyor's mechanical performance or operational safety.
Working Principle
These points function as engineered connection interfaces that distribute mechanical loads from attached components across the conveyor structure. They utilize standardized fastening systems (bolts, clips, or specialized connectors) to create secure attachments that withstand operational vibrations, thermal expansion, and dynamic stresses while maintaining alignment and preventing component detachment during operation.
Materials
Typically manufactured from carbon steel (ASTM A36/A572), stainless steel (304/316 grade for corrosive environments), or aluminum alloys (6061-T6 for lightweight applications). Surface treatments include zinc plating, powder coating, or anodizing for corrosion resistance.
Technical Parameters
  • Fastener Type M8-M16 bolts standard
  • Load Capacity 50-500 kg per point depending on application
  • Mounting Pattern Standardized hole spacing (e.g., 50mm grid)
  • Temperature Range -20°C to +120°C
  • Corrosion Resistance Salt spray test >500 hours
  • Positional Tolerance ±1.5mm
Standards
ISO 5293, DIN 22101, ISO 340, DIN 15207

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary function of cover/attachment points on conveyors?

The primary function is to provide secure, standardized mounting locations for protective covers, safety guards, and operational accessories while maintaining the structural integrity and safety compliance of the conveyor system.

Can attachment points be added to existing conveyors?

Yes, but retrofitting requires engineering assessment to ensure structural integrity isn't compromised. Professional installation following manufacturer guidelines is recommended to maintain safety standards.

What maintenance do attachment points require?

Regular inspection for corrosion, fastener tightness (torque checks), and structural deformation. Lubrication of moving attachment mechanisms if present, typically every 6-12 months depending on operating environment.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
