Conveyor Systems > Belt Conveyors

A conveyor style that utilizes a flat belt running on a flat fabricated steel deck or over rollers. They are used where smooth and quiet transport of product is desirable, and is ideally suited to irregular shaped product that cannot easily be handled on other conveyor styles.

Examples of applications other than cartons or tote bins would be the movement of floppy sacks or satchels, bags of powder and flour, or raw food products. This is an excellent conveyor for handling items that may have loose strings or tapes attached that would otherwise get caught in other conveyor styles.

Belt conveyors give a smooth solution for situations where you need a change in elevation – for example interfloor situations or to receive or deliver products to a mezzanine level.

They are also ideally suited to:

Metering – precise positioning.
Scanning – in conjunction with code readers.
Tracking – where precise positional control is required for sorting.
Induction – precise feeding into other conveyors at junctions.
Positive transport and positional control in all situations where it is desirable to know where a particular product is at any time.

Options:

Sanitary applications – food industry.
Belt over roller style – suited to long runs and heavy product loads.
