Belt conveyor lines usually use a variety of belt materials to meet the needs of different industries and application scenarios. Here is a brief introduction to several common belt materials.
First of all, rubber is one of the most commonly used materials in Belt conveyor line. Rubber belts have good wear resistance, corrosion resistance and high strength. They are suitable for large conveying equipment in coal mining, chemical industry, building materials, metallurgy and other industries, and are also suitable for light conveying equipment. However, it should be noted that the performance of rubber belts may significantly decrease under high and low temperature conditions.
Secondly, plastic materials are also widely used in Belt conveyor line. Plastic belts have excellent oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and are especially suitable for transportation requirements under some special conditions, such as transporting corrosive substances or high-temperature substances. In addition, plastic belts have lower manufacturing costs and are environmentally friendly. However, compared with rubber belts, their strength and heat resistance may be slightly inferior, and they are not suitable for conveying large viscous materials.
In addition to rubber and plastic, Belt conveyor line also often uses PVC, PU, silicone and other materials as belt materials. Not only do these materials have good physical and chemical properties, but they can also be customized to meet specific conveying requirements.
In general, the belt materials used in the Belt conveyor line are diverse, and each material has its own unique advantages and applicable scenarios. When selecting belt materials, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as the nature of the conveyed materials, the working environment, and the conveying volume to select the most suitable belt material. At the same time, with the continuous advancement of technology and the development of the industry, more new and high-performance belt materials may be used in the Belt conveyor line in the future.
