Belt conveyors are the most commonly used powered conveyors
because they are the most versatile and the least expensive.
Product is conveyed directly on the belt so both regular and
irregular shaped objects, large or small, light and heavy, can be
transported successfully. B systems uses only the highest quality
premium belting products, which reduces belt stretch and results in
less maintenance for tension adjustments. Belt conveyors can be
used to transport product in a straight line or through changes in
elevation or direction. In certain applications they can also be
used for static accumulation or cartons.
Generally, this philosophy calls for belt cleaners that
are:
As far forward (as close to the conveyor discharge) as
possible.
Positioned out of the material flow.
Designed to minimize risk to belt, splice, and cleaner
itself.
