Abstract
Chain conveyor systems are essential machines which are commonly used in manufacturing line in all sorts of industries to provide solutions in transferring a variety of goods and items within a factory. The vibration spots and high sound pressure level produced by the chain conveyor system were identified and validated by various types of experiments. Microflown Scan & Paint sound measurement and Siemens LMS Test lab sound experiment were carried out to determine the sound source, while LK-G Series Laser head displacement experiment, Modal Analysis and Operating Deflection Shape (ODS) experiment were performed on chain conveyor system to determine the vibration spots along the conveyor beam. The sound sources on FL chain conveyor system were identified on four different sections: Motor area, Chain slack area, Joint area and section formed by coordinates B24, A24, B28 and A28 while the vibration spots on the conveyor system were found out to be at Joint area, Leg supports, Idler end and from Motor area to B28 and A28 section. The sound pressure level measured from experiements were converted to A-weightage by DAQ and all the sound source on the chain conveyor system was proven to be originated from the vibration spots.
