How to solve the off tracking problem of belt conveyor?

The off tracking of belt conveyor is the common problem in the production. Especially, belt conveyor installed in inclined drift is easy to have off tracking of belt. If this problem could not be solved timely, the coal production will be limited and the equipment performance will be worse, which would reduce the service life of belt and many result in accident.
If the off tracking of belt occur, we should confirm the reason and then solve it accordingly. We should deal with it according to actual conditions to guarantee the normal operation of the belt conveyor.
If the upper belt has deviation in one direction and the lower belt has deviation in the other direction, this could result from the large diagonal deviation. We could adjust the frame to higher place, making upper and lower idlers bear large load. There is no off tracking with load, while off tracking occurs without load. This situation is common where it is downhill and hanging segment. At this moment, the belt is controlled by several idlers. In the summon, the idler has large acting force to the belt. When adjusting this problem, the belt will be instable. When the belt conveyor operates without load, the belt and idler have no strict touch, which result in the situation that thrust force could not reach the belt. The solution is as follows:
If possible, the tensity of belt could be reduce accordingly and the frame could be lifted. Also the vertical idler could be installed to adjust the off tracking of the belt. When fixing the idler, it will be better if the idler could rotate with the belt. In this way, the purpose of adjusting off tracking could be realized, which reduces the abrasion to the belt edge.
Besides, the conveyor components play an important role. Most EPC companies would purchase the suitable belt and related conveyor components to coordinate the operation of apron feeder.
