The working principle of the retractable belt conveyor is the same as that of the ordinary belt conveyor.

The difference is: in structure, compared with the ordinary belt conveyor, the retractable belt conveyor has added a belt storage device and a belt retracting device. The tail is retracted; otherwise, the tail is extended, thus making the conveyor have retractable performance.

Features of retractable belt conveyor:

1. Compared with the traditional manual loading and unloading method, the telescopic belt conveyor has the ability to quickly load and unload the goods. The loading and unloading of the same truck, the time required for the telescopic belt conveyor is 50% of the traditional manual loading and unloading time.

2. The use of the telescopic belt conveyor reduces the time for people to drag the trailer back and forth and wait in line to pull the goods, and minimize the turnaround time.

3. The design and production of the machine is ergonomic, easy to operate, reduces labor intensity, and minimizes the work intensity of manpower to move goods up and down.

4. The staff can extend the transportation distance by operating the telescopic belt conveyor, and lift/lower it to suit the current working position, so as to facilitate better work.

The entire telescopic belt conveyor can be used in many scenarios, and the purchase cost is not too high, and the investment return period is short. The average return on investment period in the express delivery industry is one year. The telescopic belt conveyor can be equipped with various functions, tailored according to the needs, and the equipment can be automated as much as possible.

Application scenarios of retractable belt conveyors:

At present, retractable belt conveyors are widely used in the market for warehousing and transportation scenarios in chemical, light industry, machinery, electronics, medicine, food, tobacco, post and telecommunications, warehouses, docks and other industries
