Custom Rubber Conveyor Belts
Amaron Rubber is a leading manufacturer and supplier of high-quality custom conveyor belts for diverse industries and applications.
1. Applications
| Industry/Application | Description |
|---|---|
| General Purpose | Used for general conveying or power transmission purposes. |
| Agriculture | Suitable for agriculture applications like silage transfer and farm equipment. |
| Commercial/Retail | Designed for checkout counters or inventory transfer in commercial and retail settings. |
| Construction | Heavy-duty belts for handling construction materials and usage on construction equipment. |
| Elevator | Vertical application with additional safety factors and attachments like buckets or trays. |
| Food & Beverage Processing | Used in food or beverage processing, with non-absorbent material for easy cleanability. |
| Mining / Quarrying | Heavy-duty belting for transporting materials in mining and quarrying operations. |
| Inclined Conveying | Designed for conveying material up or down inclines. |
| Manufacturing/Fabrication | Used in factory production lines for manufacturing and fabrication processes. |
| Packaging | Typically abrasion-resistant for use with cardboard, package paper, etc. |
| Power Transmission | Industrial conveyor belts are used in power transmission applications like engine belts and industrial machinery. |
| Other / Custom | For unlisted special applications or custom belt configurations designed for specific requests. |
2. Primary Belt Material
| Material | Description |
|---|---|
| Cotton / Canvas | Any weave of cotton, cotton blends, or heavy-duty canvas used in various applications. |
| Neoprene | A synthetic rubber resistant to sun, ozone, and weather. It performs well with oils and chemicals, has a wide temperature range, and resists burning. |
| Nitrile | Provides good resistance to petroleum hydrocarbons, fuels, oils, hydraulic fluids, and alcohol. Available in different compound variations for specific applications. |
| Polyurethane / Urethane | A diverse class of materials with good elongation, recovery, toughness, flexibility, and abrasion resistance. |
| PVC conveyer belts | Widely used material known for its flexibility, smooth surface, and nontoxic qualities. Some grades are suitable for food and chemical processes due to PVC’s inert nature. |
| Rubber | Includes natural compounds like gum rubber (polyisoprene) and latex. |
| Silicone | Known for its heat, cold, and weather resistance, electrical insulation, release properties, water repellency, and defoaming characteristics. |
3. Belt Dimensions
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Belt Thickness | No standard size. Users will specify or provide “at least” and “no more than” values for the thickness. |
| Belt Width | No standard size. Users will specify or provide “at least” and “no more than” values for the width. |
| Belt Length | No standard size. Users will specify or provide “at least” and “no more than” values for the length. |
4. Performance Specifications
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Working Load Per Inch Width | Indicates the specified working load or running tension per inch of width for the belt. |
| Maximum Operating Speed | Flat belts often have a maximum speed specification in feet per minute or other distance per unit of time. |
| Minimum Pulley Size | The minimum pulley size is determined by the belt’s stiffness and its ability to go around a pulley without kinking or exceeding its deformation limit. |
| Operating Temperature | Indicates the required range of operating temperature within which the belt can perform optimally. |
5. Other Features
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Food Grade Rated | Approved by USDA or FDA for safe food handling. |
| Perforated / Timing Features | Contains perforations or tracking features to engage with pulleys, preventing slippage. |
| Cleats / Ribs / Chevrons | Top cleats or ribs assist in inclined conveying and transport of granular material, often in a “vee” or chevron shape. |
| V-Guides / V-Ropes | One or more bottom V-guides provide positive tracking, attached using techniques like vulcanizing or welding. |
| Sidewalls | Sidewalls assist in tracking and/or conveying. |
| Anti-Static | Conductive to prevent the buildup of static electricity. |
| Modular Belt | Belt is customizable and adjustable through interlocking sections or modules. |
| Open-ended | Supplied in a roll and can be cut and spliced to the desired length. |
