Plastic Modular Belt Conveyors

Plastic Modular Belt Conveyors are a very versatile option. These conveyors are often promoted in the food and beverage industries as they are so easy to clean as well as being resistant to wear and heat, they are effective for pharmaceutical, packaging, corrugated and automotive industries also. The belts are taken around sprockets giving them positive drive and tracking.

The belts can be flat or with flights, smooth or open mesh, straight or flexible. The flexible belting can take your product on one unit, round bends as well as inclines and declines with a continuous base and requiring only one drive unit, the modular belt conveyor is a more cost effective solution with this in mind.

The standard grades of the plastic belting are:
Polyoxmethylene (POM) withstanding temperatures from -40 to 90 degrees C, a thermoplastic self lubricating material with resistance to some chemicals, wear and has good strength elasticity and stability;
Polypropylene (PP) withstanding 1 to 104 degrees C, an economical material for applications with high temperatures, also has good resistance to some chemicals; and
Polyethylene (PE) withstanding -50 to 80 degrees C, an economical material for applications with low temperatures.

Special materials are also available for their superior abilities glass reinforced, anti-static, high heat resistant, high wear resistant, high impact resistant, acid resistant, high chemical resistance and flame retardant.

Whether it is raw, frozen or hot cooked food, packages, printing hot off the press or loose materials, these conveyors can transfer your product between processes. Some belt types have varying accessories such as tabs, product supports, side guides and finger plates.
