The main belt of Beltsiflex is designed to optimize the performance of the system and ensure transverse rigidity.
Transverse resistant bands:
Supports the band at the turn and prevents it from giving back. Prevents tearing and opening of the bandbands and pallets. Prevents waist at points where the belt changes angle. Prevents loss of drive power. Non-transverse resistant belts can only be used in small designs if there is no angle change.
They are produced only for Beltsiflex elevator belt systems. Our transverse rigid belts with textile carcasses are manufactured by adding 1 or 2 layers of monofilament reinforced woven fabric to the carcass of ordinary EP cloth belts (polyester-polyamide). This provides the transverse rigidity required by the belt characteristics.
They have textile carcasses and are produced only for Beltsiflex elevator belt systems. The point where it differs from the XEM type is that the element that gives transverse rigidity is not monofilament weaving but metal cords placed transversely. It is applied in heavy applications, high capacities and wide belts where XEM cannot provide sufficient transverse rigidity.
The distinguishing feature of this belt type from other belt types is that the load-bearing elements are also steel cords. These belts are used in very large constructions. It is used not only in high capacities but also in long belts. The elongation values of this belt are close to 0. The weight and thickness of this tape varies from application to application.
