Abstract

This work deals with an investigation of recurrent cracking of the spiral modular conveyor belt over an extended period. The modular belt has been in operation for at least 2 years and is now showing wear that must be solved immediately due to a possible crash of the entire line and stopping of operations. The target of this work is looked for possible causes cracking of modular belt in operation and following solution. The causes included both the wrong setting of the entire spiral conveyor as well as the wrong choice of belt material or internal defects of the belt.
