Flat Flex Conveyor Belts are gear-driven belts known for their good ventilation and consistent tension, offering high-temperature resistance, pressure tolerance, corrosion resistance, and a long operational lifespan. Their flexible rotation and stability make them ideal for various applications.
These belts typically have a single-layer structure, making them lightweight and easy to maneuver. They are driven by sprockets and feature a large open area (70-85%), providing ample airflow. This makes them suitable for lighter product cooling, frying, baking, drying, heating, decoration, coating, and packaging equipment. They deliver reliable performance across different applications, ensuring efficient production and handling.
Specifications
- Material
Flat Flex Conveyor Belts are commonly manufactured using stainless steel grades like SS304, SS316, and SS316L. These grades offer high resistance to corrosion, pressure, and temperature, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. - Pitch (mm)
The pitch, which is the spacing between adjacent wires or links, ranges from 4 to 20 mm. This flexibility allows for varied applications, providing efficient product flow. - Wire Diameter (mm)
Wire diameters range from 1 to 3 mm, striking a balance between strength and flexibility for diverse applications. This range offers the appropriate blend of durability and lightweight construction. - Overall Width (mm)
With an overall width between 100 and 3000 mm, these belts can be customized to match specific production needs and equipment dimensions. - Sprocket Compatibility
Designed to work with sprockets, these belts can be supplied with sprockets that vary in keyway, keyway depth, bore diameter, and overall diameter. This ensures smooth, accurate belt operation. - Special Specifications
Custom specifications can be tailored to accommodate unique industrial requirements.
