With the continuous growth of internet shopping and ever increasing consumption rates, an efficient flow of goods is becoming more and more important for companies and consumers. The standstill of a single conveyor belt can immediately cause large problems within a warehouse management system. For this reason, you need to be able to rely on the continuous operation of your conveyor belts under all conditions with as little downtime as possible.
The high speeds at which goods and packages are transported, up to more than 200 metres per minute, require a number of special properties from the belts. Good tracking properties are a primary requirement, ensuring that the belts run straight despite their high speed, starting/stopping, speed increase and decrease, pushing off sideways and similar. Belts must be wear-resistant, have the correct amount of friction to ensure that boxes on the belt will not slide off during ascending or descending transport, but can still be pushed off easily at the sorting station and of course, must be flame-retardant. Noise reduction is an important point of attention in almost all belts for sorting and distribution centres, in order to meet workers’ health and safety standards. Each belt has its own specific requirements. Bandtransport Europe’s belts have been specially developed in order to operate trouble-free under all conditions.
For many years Bandtransport Europe has been supplying the right thermoplastic conveyor belts for the entire process. We offer an extensive product range of flat conveyor belts and belts with (e.g. non-slip) profiles. In accordance with your wishes and requirements, we supply belts with a special ‘low-noise’ underside, excellent force-elongation ratio, antistatic properties, flame-retardant properties and good chemical or oil and grease resistance. For certain applications, a high degree of wear-resistance or resistance against cuts and impacts is important. Again, we deliver the right solution for these applications.
During the transport of packages and postal items, it is very important that products remain in position on the belt during transport. For this, profiled belts are used. Bandtransport Europe offers optimal flexibility in profiling: By use of our profiling machine, we can emboss any desired current profile on the belt material.
Thanks to our close contacts with distributors and colleagues around the world, we are able to provide very quick service, thus safeguarding your continuity.
Below you will find a number of belt types suitable for use in this industry. Can’t you find what you are looking for? Please feel free to contact us. We will be happy to assist you.
