Conveyor belts are an essential tool in the material handling sector. They are strips of continuous movement that are used to transport different materials from one place to another. It is mainly used to transport large quantities of material in a short time. Conveyor belts are also called belts conveyors. In this video, We'll discuss 10 different types of conveyor belts. Let's get started!

NUMBER 1.

Cleated Belt Conveyor

The vertical cleats are distributed along the width of the belt in the cleated belt conveyor. The function of cleats is to support the material and realize largeangle transportation.

NUMBER 2.

Inclined Belt Conveyor

When materials need to be raised or lowered, it is often necessary to use inclined belt conveyors, but there is a certain limit to the tilt. Generally, the tiltup angle is not more than 18 °.

NUMBER 3.

Flat Belt Conveyor

A flat belt conveyor has the general structure and characteristics of the belt conveyor, which is suitable for the transportation of irregular shape and lightweight objects, such as postal parcels, clothes, paper products, plastic products, etc. 

NUMBER 4.

Trough Belt Conveyor

The trough belt conveyor has a large loading and conveying capacity, the conveyor belt of the trough belt conveyor adopts a multilayer rubber belt, with a belt width of 500mm, 650mm, 800mm, 1000mm, 1200mm, and 1400mm. The carrying side conveyor belt is supported by a troughed idler that is composed of 3 rollers (the angle of the trough can reach 45°), and the return idlers are supported by flat rollers.

NUMBER 5.

Roller Bed Belt Conveyor

A roller bed belt conveyor is a kind of conveyor that uses several rollers which are set up on the fixed support according to a certain distance to transport goods. The roller bed belt conveyor is suitable for all kinds of boxes, bags, pallets, and other pieces of cargo transportation, mostly used for station or airport luggage sorting.

NUMBER 6.

Portable Belt Conveyor

Universal wheels are installed at the bottom of the portable belt conveyor, which can move freely according to the stacking position of the materials, and are mostly used in the environment with a small conveying inclination angle.

NUMBER 7.

Retractable Belt Conveyor

The frame of the retractable belt conveyor is equipped with a storage belt device, which can make the belt stretch freely in the length direction and adjust the conveyor length according to the change of the belt working position at any time.

NUMBER 8.

Curved Belt Conveyor

The curved belt conveyor realizes the natural curves of the conveyor by changing the arrangement angle of the idler group, reducing the transfer station numbers, and solving a series of problems brought by the transfer station.

NUMBER 9.

Steel Belt Conveyor

Steel belt conveyor uses stainless steel belt instead of a belt. For the belt conveyor will release harmful substances when conveying materials with high temperature, while the steel belt will not, the steel belt conveyor is more suitable for material conveying in the food industry.

NUMBER 10.

Special Belt Conveyor

A special belt conveyor is designed separately for the transportation of goods under special circumstances, which has a small range of applicability. Some of these are magnetic belt conveyors, narrow belt conveyor, acid and alkali resistant belt conveyors, flame retardant belt conveyor, etc.
