Three common used belt conveyor belt joint methods are introduced as follows:
1.Mechanical joints
Generally it refers to the use of belt buckle joint, the joint method is convenient and fast, more economic, disadvantages are low efficiency, easy to damage, has a certain effect on the conveyor belt. The service life of the product in antistatic PVC and PVG whole core flame retardant conveyor belt joint, products less than 8 grade are using this joint method.

2. Cold adhesive joint
It uses cold bonding adhesive joints. Compared with mechanical joints, this joint is higher efficient, more economic, should be able to have a good connection effect, but from a practical point of view, because the process is more difficult to grasp, and adhesive on the quality of the joint influence is very large, so it is not very stable.
3. Hot vulcanization joint
The practice proved to be the ideal of a joint method, not only can guarantee the high coupling efficiency, but also very stable, joint life is long, easy to grasp. However, the existing defects are process trouble, high cost, long operation time.
