Conveyor belts
A conveyor belt is an essential tool in the material handling sector. They are the continuous moving strips that are used for carrying different materials from one place to another. Mostly used for conveying a large volume of materials in a short span of time. A conveyor belt is also known as a belt conveyor.
These belts are generally made of Rubber, PVC, Urethane, Neoprene, Nylon, Nitrile, Polyester, leather and others. The industrial conveyor belts are made up of multiple layers of material. Most of the material transporting belts comprise of two layers. The underneath layer is known as Carcass and it gives the linear strength and shape. The Carcass is made up of Polyester, nylon, cotton, steel cord, etc. The upper layer is known as the cover. Diverse variants of rubber or plastic compounds are utilised to make the cover.
Conveyor belts are used in various industries such as: Production, mining and shipping companies, food and beverage companies, automotive and tire assemblies, electronics, pharmaceutical and medical, printing, mail sorting, tobacco and packaging.
Various applications where conveyors belts are proven with profitability: General Purpose, Agriculture, Retail, Construction, Elevator , Food & Beverage processing units, Forest, Mining & Quarry, High temperature, Manufacturing & Fabrications, Packaging operations, Power Transmissions and various custom special applications.
Some of the advantages of using the conveyor belts:- Best mechanical strength
- Flexibility is high
