Description
MACHINE TYPE:
The conveyor belt, usually made of rubber (or also plastic and stainless steel), forms a closed loop and therefore endless, driven by rollers or sprockets. The basic concept is similar to that of a bicycle chain.
APPLICATION SECTOR:
Pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetic, food, dietary, medical devices, manufacturing.
FEATURES:
The outer surface of the belt is where the load is placed, while the inner surface is usually in contact with a cylinder, the so-called drive drum. This is a body that ensures its movement and is normally located at the front (thus on the side where the material will be discharged). On the other side of the belt, at the rear, there is a second cylinder called the return roller, to which the movement generated by the drive drum is transmitted. However, it is also possible for the drive drum to be positioned at the rear. In order for the weight of the load and the inevitable disturbing elements not to compromise the correct tension of the belt, the device is equipped, along its length, with other drums called carrying rollers and support rollers; alternatively, metal sheets can also serve to stabilize its position and movement. During the journey between the loading area and the unloading area, the movement of the material to be transported is regulated externally by side barriers that prevent it from spilling out, although lateral exits equipped with special diverters can allow for the interruption of the journey of some of the parts to be transported. In the production or transport of material, the belt can take on different configurations depending on the material being transported.
