How to Apply a Patch to Your Conveyor Belt

1. Prepare the area
   Switch off and secure the conveyor belt before starting. Clean the damaged area thoroughly to remove dirt, oil, and dust. Use a cleaner if necessary to ensure good adhesion.
2. Trim damaged edges
   Remove any loose threads or uneven edges around the damage using a knife or cutting tool. This ensures a tight, lasting patch.
3. Apply adhesive (if required)
   If the patch requires glue, apply an even layer to both the patch and the damaged area. Allow the adhesive to become tacky before application.
4. Place the patch
   Position the patch directly over the damaged area. Press it down firmly and smooth out any air bubbles using a roller or flat tool.
5. Allow to cure
   Follow the adhesive’s instructions for curing time before restarting the belt. If using a self-adhesive patch, the belt can often be restarted immediately.
6. Check and restart
   Make sure the patch is properly seated and securely fixed. Restart the conveyor slowly and monitor the repair under operation.
