Abstract
The Institute of Transport- and Automation Technology of the Leibniz Universität Hannover has a long history in testing conveyor belts regarding their efficiency. One important aspect is the testing of the fatigue strength of conveyor belt splices. For these tests the institute operates two test rigs since 1977. Under dynamic pulsating load, to which the belt is exposed in operation, the splices represent the weakest part of the whole conveyor belt. It can be seen that the requirements for conveyor belts and especially their splice design have been extended during the past 20 years. One of the main development targets identified for steel cord conveyor belt splicing is a continuous increase of the nominal breaking strength. The increase of the nominal breaking strengths of conveyor belts, due to the needs of higher mass flow, led to the necessity to develop a new test rig for this new class of high strength conveyor belts. The new test rig developed at the ITA, with a pulley diameter of 2500 mm and a maximum test load of 3.5 MN now provides the ability to test the dynamic fatigue strength of these conveyor belts with a nominal strength higher 7800 N/mm. The results gathered in previous examinations especially in the field of conveyor belts with higher nominal strength by the test rigs of the ITA can be used for a selection as well as for a focused development of materials, conveyor belts and its corresponding splice design to meet future specifications within a belt conveyor layout.
