How to choose patterned conveyor belts and flat conveyor belts?

24-01-2025

Conveyor belts are the most widely used transmission accessories in the industrial industry. However, many manufacturers have a difficult time choosing conveyor belts, because some conveyor belts have basically the same properties, but they may not be suitable for our own production. For example, when choosing anti-skid conveyor belts, many customers do not know whether to choose patterned conveyor belts or flat conveyor belts.

Whether it is a flat conveyor belt or a patterned conveyor belt, both have anti-skid properties and are widely used in many industries, but the anti-skid effects of the two are different.

Conveyor belts

Flat conveyor belt: Because the surface is flat, it can effectively increase friction and wear resistance.

Patterned conveyor belt: It can effectively increase friction, increase grip, increase product stability, reduce product deviation, and has a better anti-skid effect than flat conveyor belts. Patterned conveyor belts include many patterns, such as: diamond conveyor belts, grass conveyor belts, straight stripes conveyor belts, I-shaped conveyor belts, serrated patterns, golf patterns, snakeskin patterns, tire patterns, etc. Of course, different patterns can also be customized according to different rollers.

1. The herringbone pattern is suitable for conveying powder, granular, small block materials at an inclination angle of ≤40 degrees, and can also convey bagged materials.

2. The strip pattern is suitable for horizontal conveying of packaging materials at an inclination angle of ≤30 degrees. If it is in a trough, it can replace the herringbone pattern.

3. The fan-shaped pattern is suitable for conveying powder, granular and block materials at a large inclination angle of ≤60 degrees.

4. The granular pattern is suitable for conveying soft packaging or materials that require grip (such as cardboard boxes) or non-slip conveying.

5. The pit-shaped granular pattern is suitable for conveying granular materials at an inclination angle of ≤45 degrees.

Flat conveyor belt

Finally, the editor recommends that when you need a conveyor belt with anti-slip performance, you can buy a patterned conveyor belt; if you need a conveyor belt with good wear resistance, it is recommended to buy a flat conveyor belt. However, the choice of conveyor belt still depends on your own working environment and the different conveying products to customize. After all, only the one that suits you is good.
