Common conveying materials and their characteristics

There are also certain differences in the materials of different types of conveyor belts. Some conveyor belts can be distinguished from the name, such as nylon conveyor belts, rubber conveyor belts, and the like. However, many conveyor belts can only be classified by name, and it is indistinguishable from which material is used.

Rubber material
Rubber conveyor belt has the characteristics of heat resistance, high temperature resistance, burning resistance, acid and alkali resistance, cold resistance, abrasion resistance, oil resistance, flame retardancy, tear resistance and puncture resistance. It is suitable for working environment temperature from low temperature -15 °C to high temperature 40 °C. The material temperature does not exceed 50 °C. According to different quality standards, it can be divided into ordinary conveyor belt, three-resistant conveyor belt, chevron conveyor belt, etc.
Rubber belt conveyor is mainly used for solid material transportation in mining, metallurgy, steel, coal, hydropower, building materials, chemical, grain and other enterprises.

silicone material
Silica gel is a highly active adsorbent material, which is amorphous, insoluble in water and any solvent, non-toxic and tasteless, chemically stable, and does not react with any substance except strong alkali and hydrofluoric acid. The silicone conveyor belt is made of glass fiber cloth with high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, fire retardant and high strength. It is calendered or impregnated with silicone rubber. It can be used for conveying between low temperature -70 °C and high temperature 280 °C. It is a high performance. The multi-purpose composite new product has the characteristics of high adsorption performance, good thermal stability, stable chemical properties and high mechanical strength. The EP conveyor belt has the characteristics of easy installation, maintenance-free, stable operation, not easy to deviation, long service life, cutting resistance and high temperature resistance. It has been widely used in aerospace, chemical, petroleum, large-scale power generation equipment, machinery, metallurgy and electrical. Insulation, construction and other industries.

PVC material
PVC name PVC, PVC material belt fabric layer is generally 1~3 layers, the total thickness is between 1mm~11.5mm (different fabric layer times correspond to belt thickness), corresponding surface coating thickness is 0.5 Between mm and 6.5mm, but other thicknesses can be customized according to customer requirements. For example, PVC conveyor belt products can be divided into: one cloth, one rubber, two cloth, one rubber, two cloth, two rubber, two. Cloth three glue, three cloth three glue, three cloth four glue, four cloth four glue, four cloth five glue, five cloth five glue and so on. The temperature range of the PVC conveyor belt ranges from -10 ° C to +80 ° C.
Because PVC conveyor belt has good elasticity and is not easy to be deformed, it has the characteristics of wear resistance, stagnation resistance, low noise, energy saving, environmental protection and antistatic. Therefore, it is widely used in food, tobacco, logistics, packaging and other industries. It is also suitable for underground transportation of coal mines, and can also be used for material transportation in metallurgical and chemical industries.

PU material
PU name polyurethane, PU conveyor belt adopts environmentally friendly material polyurethane (PU) as raw material for conveyor belt. The product formula is scientific and reasonable, meets food hygiene standards, can be in direct contact with food, moderate color, no odor, oil and corrosion resistance. It is a durable and durable conveying product. It is widely used in the food industry or the food sector to transport bulk, canned and packaged food, biscuits, candy, fruit and vegetable processing. , poultry and meat processing and other related industries.

TPU material
TPU name thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber, TPU material belt fabric layer is generally divided into one cloth one glue, one cloth two glue, two cloth one glue, two cloth two glue, three cloth three glue, etc., the total thickness is between 0.7mm ~5.7mm (different manufacturers with different thickness), the general surface uses matt pattern, usually suitable for the transportation of light food, can also be used in the textile printing and dyeing industry, with wear resistance, oil resistance, cutting resistance, anti-stick, anti- Characteristics such as bacterial contamination.
