Modular plastic belting is a great alternative to fabric conveyor belting for a wide range of industrial applications. It is positive driven, which equates to positive tracking, low tension for less wear and tear on motors and bearings, and no slippage on drives. Modular plastic belts are durable and easy to clean, making this product ideal for use in almost every major industry.
There are a few simple details needed in order to get a quote, here is what we need to know:
Hint: Pictures are the best way to ID a belt, just send a picture of the top, bottom, and side (with a tape measure for reference) and we will take it from there.
Hint: Try a “float test”, if your material sinks in water it is Acetal, if it floats you have Polypropylene. Polyethylene is most often used in cold conditions. Call us today to help ID your belt.
Plastic modular belts have transformed the manufacturing industry. Understanding the differences between synthetic fabric and plastic modular belting can help engineers plan and determine the most suitable conveyor for a given application.
