Before the invention of conveyor belts, material handling involved incredible effort, time, and manpower. Today, Conveyor Belts are a crucial tool in the material handling industry and are most commonly used to transport bulk materials safely and efficiently.

Belt conveyor systems consist of two or more pulleys, also known as drums, with the belt on an endless loop. The drive pulley moves the belt while the idler pulley is unpowered and redirects the belt. Side guide rollers help protect the conveyor belt and prevent premature wear.

Companies that understand the different types of conveyor belts can choose the safest and most efficient system for their needs. We list a few different types of conveyor belts below.

General Use Conveyor Belts

A common type of PVC Conveyor Belt is solid belts made from rubber or fabrics such as nylon, polyester, nitrile, or neoprene. The right type of belt material depends on your use. For example, rubber conveyor belts are typically used in mining and milling industries, while grocery stores commonly use PVC belts.

Woven Metal Conveyor Belts

Interlinking chains or wiring make up woven metal belts to allow for airflow. This design is made for industries that require drying, cooling, and the heating of food, electronics, glass, and more. PU Conveyor Belt manufacturers can build woven metal belts to the company’s specifications.

Plastic Interlocking Conveyor Belts

Plastic belts are a modular alternative to metal interlocking belts and are ideal for applications that require frequent cleaning and belt replacement. You’ll commonly see plastic belts in food handling, packing processes, or in the automotive industry.
