General Information on Conveyor Belt Systems
Belt Conveyor systems are the most versatile and simplest material handling systems. With a system of two or more pulleys driving an endless loop belt, a belt conveyor can smoothly and quickly move a product from Point A to Point B. Different belt finishes are available to suit specific product needs. Ultimation designs and builds industrial belt conveyors from 5′ long to 102′ long and in widths from 6″ wide belts up to 72″ wide. Belt conveyors are great for transporting regular and irregular shaped objects both light and heavy. Typical items transported on the conveyor belt include totes, packaged goods, bulk boxes and bundled items. Due to simplicity in design and construction, the belt conveyor installs quickly for a reduced installation time.
Use a belt conveyor when:
- Moving simple products from one location to another
- Moving products up or down inclines (check with our engineers on maximum angles for your product)
- Moving in either continuous or indexing modes (i.e. the belt stops and starts each time to move a product to the end of the belt using a sensor)
- Changing the speed is necessary. When fitted with a VFD (variable frequency drive), a belt conveyor is a simple industrial system to adjust the speed on
- Moving a product around curves. Belt conveyor curves maintain the proper product orientation while a product moves around the curve
Don’t use a belt conveyor if you need:
- Accumulating products (i.e. for a buffer). Belt conveyors can’t allow the products to nest up against each other (“accumulate”) without them pushing product off the belt. If you need accumulation, use a roller conveyor or overhead conveyor
- Products that won’t slide or roll off the belt. A powered belt conveyor requires the part to ride on the belt without sliding. If you need the parts to be held while on the conveyor, consider a slat conveyor which can be fitted with tooling to hold the product in place as the conveyor moves along
- To use the conveyor as a working surface. They’re made for transporting parts, not for production operations on them. Use a slat conveyor or roller conveyor instead.
Different belt types
- General purpose
- Rough top – for extra grip on inclines, declines and products that might slide
- Higher chemical resistance – for best protection from chemicals
- High cut resistance – for rough or sharp items like sheet metal or bricks
- High temperature resistance
