Conveyor Belt Coefficient of Friction

ISO 21182

Introduction: Coefficient of Friction Matters

그리고 conveyor belt coefficient of friction quantifies the resistance between the bottom surface of the belt and the supporting surface (slider bed or rollers). This value influences belt tracking, drive power requirements, and product transport stability.

There are two key types of friction to consider:

  • 정적 마찰: The resistance to the start of motion
  • Kinetic (dynamic) friction: The resistance during continuous movement

Both factors are critical for conveyor design, especially when transporting lightweight, delicate, or unstable goods.

Standardized Testing with ISO 21182

ISO 21182 Light conveyor belts — Determination of the coefficient of friction

  • The test evaluates the dynamic coefficient of frictionbetween the belt’s bottom surface and a standardized steel or polymer plate.
  • A test sled is pulled across the belt surface under a specified normal load.
  • The drag force is measured and used to calculate the coefficient of friction.
  • Environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity must be controlled for consistency.

What Is the Conveyor Belt Coefficient of Friction?

마찰 계수는 두 가지 유형으로 나뉩니다:

  • Static COF (μs): This measures the force needed to initiate movement between two materials. For plastic film, it’s crucial in determining whether stacked bags or rolls will shift during storage or transportation.
  • Kinetic COF (μk): This evaluates the force required to sustain movement once sliding begins. It’s particularly relevant for plastic film processed through high-speed packaging machinery where continuous movement over rollers or sealing jaws occurs.

이 두 가지 값은 재료 성능을 최적화할 때 설계 엔지니어와 패키징 전문가에게 중요합니다.
