A conveyor belt is a mechanical equipment used to transport items. Its raw materials mainly include rubber, polyester, polyethylene and other materials, and other auxiliary materials are also added for mixing and processing. The following are several common conveyor belts and their main material characteristics:
1. Rubber conveyor belt: It has good tensile strength, wear resistance and anti-aging properties, and is suitable for conveying general materials. Among them, ordinary rubber conveyor belts are suitable for a variety of scenarios, while heat-resistant rubber conveyor belts can maintain stable performance in high-temperature environments.
2. Nylon conveyor belt: a high-strength, impact-resistant, scratch-resistant conveyor belt with high tensile strength and breaking strength, suitable for bulk materials and high-speed transportation.
3. Polyester conveyor belt: suitable for conveying small and medium-sized materials at medium and low speeds. It has good tensile strength and fatigue resistance and is often used for conveying cement, fertilizer, limestone and other materials.
In addition to the above three types, steel wire rope core conveyor belts and polymer fabric core conveyor belts are also common types. Steel wire core conveyor belts are composed of multi-strand steel wire cores and rubber coatings. They have high load-bearing capacity and high temperature resistance, and are suitable for material transportation in long-distance, high-load and high-temperature environments. Polymer fabric core conveyor belts have high impact resistance, wear resistance and tear resistance.
In addition, the selection of raw materials for conveyor belts will also vary depending on the working environment and material characteristics. For example, in high-temperature, high-wear environments, metal conveyor belts or specially treated rubber conveyor belts may be chosen; in the food and pharmaceutical industries, priority should be given to non-toxic, odorless plastic or rubber conveyor belts.
In short, there are many types of raw materials for conveyor belts, and the selection needs to be comprehensively considered based on the actual working environment and material characteristics to achieve the best use effect. At the same time, with the continuous advancement of science and technology and the continuous improvement of processes, the raw materials of conveyor belts are constantly updated and optimized to meet the growing market demand.
