Second, how to choose the right conveyor belt?
l Length of conveyor
-Short distance: choose a simple belt conveyor, affordable, easy to install
-Long distances or turns and climbs: choose the type that can be flexibly spliced, such as transporting horizontally first and then climbing uphill, or turning around obstacles
l transport volume
-Light load conveying: such as cartons, small packages of snacks, with ordinary belts, the surface is smooth and does not jam the goods.
-Heavy-duty conveying: e.g. pallets, steel, with sturdy chain or roller conveyors
l working environment
-High environmental requirements: high cleanliness conveyor belts with smooth surfaces for good cleaning
Outdoor or dusty environments, such as mines and ports, use dirt-resistant and corrosion-resistant rubber belts or chain conveyors.
