Steel Carcass Conveyor Belts
Longitudinally along the belt, 7×7 or 7×19, according to the diameter required to obtain the required resistance of the belt. Depending on their application, structures with metal crushers can be added to the coverings of the tape. Fleximat braided tapes.
They feature longitudinal steel cord tensioning along the belt and are normally used in large mining plants. They usually have large dimensions in terms of length and capacity.
The tensile strength of the steel cord makes this type of belt ideal for these applications. Furthermore, these belts provide us with several additional advantages:
– This type of belt has very low elongation values, making it easy to construct kilometer-long plants.
– They are more flexible than their fabric-reinforced equivalents, requiring smaller diameter drums.
– They have higher puncture resistance. They are not subject to deformation due to discontinuous heavy loads or external factors such as heat, cold and humidity, thus keeping the belt moving in a straight line.
– They accept rubber coatings of any thickness. Breakages such as longitudinal slitting, damaged edges or holes are easily repaired by hot vulcanization, which guarantees the long life of the belt.
In addition to the advantages offered by Steelcord belts, these belts have a transverse steel cord reinforcement that multiplies their properties for the toughest working conditions.
They offer outstanding resistance to impacts and the impact of very sharp materials. They are manufactured with a metal wire mesh insert, both as a tension layer (longitudinal) and as a braid (transverse).
They may contain one or two layers of steel cord tension layer and mesh:
– Rigid: Indicated for special applications as part of a bandaboard system or for installations with bucket elevators.
– Flexible: Suitable for handling aggressive materials and highly resistant to impact and cutting.
– IW: 1 mesh
– SW: 2 cages (top and bottom face)
