Pipe Belting
Description:
- Primarily used where bulk materials must be conveyed along horizontal and vertical curves in confined spaces, and/or where the environment has to be protected resp. where spillage must be avoided.
- The belt can negotiate tight horizontal and vertical curves. This eliminates or reduces transfer points, which is a big cost saving. Inclinations of up to 35° can be dealt with.
The belt must not flag so that the edge touches the conveyed material and it must not be too stiff, which would increase motor power resp. energy consumption and lead to premature wear of the belt and the idlers.
The belt must always open and never overlap on the pulleys.
The rubber covers must have enhanced specific properties that cope with the high stretch and with the effects of ozone and ultraviolet radiation.
