Metal conveyor belts
Metal conveyor belts are commonly used in areas where belts made of other materials are not suitable. The different types of metal belts available vary according to the specific requirements of the conveyor system. While many belts are produced to special order, there are also standard solutions available for machine manufacturers. These belts are typically made from interlocking metal mesh, wire, or chain links that are braided into a pattern or mesh, and may also include bent metal parts.
The temperature tolerance of metal conveyor belts depends on the materials used and can range from -140°C to +1800°C. The standard width for these belts is up to 6000 mm, while the length can be customized to fit the specific needs of the conveyor system.
The materials used in metal conveyor belts include steel and stainless steel (such as Aisi 304, Aisi 321, Aisi 309, Aisi 330, etc.), as well as other materials as needed, such as 6025 HT.
Metal conveyor belts offer several advantages over belts made from other materials, such as:
- Temperature resistance: These belts can withstand high temperatures, making them ideal for use in industries where high temperatures are a concern.
- Wear resistance: Metal conveyor belts are highly resistant to wear and tear, resulting in a longer lifespan and lower maintenance costs.
- Mechanical properties: The mechanical properties of metal conveyor belts depend on the specific material used, resulting in belts that are strong and durable.
- Corrosion resistance: Metal conveyor belts are resistant to corrosion, making them ideal for use in harsh environments.
These features make metal conveyor belts a popular choice for industries such as food processing, automotive, and mining.
