| General-purpose modular belts | Interlocking injection-molded modules connected by hinge rods | Polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), acetal (POM) | Straight-running designs, multiple surface patterns, sprocket drive, and widths assembled from modular rows | Packaging, distribution, food processing, and general manufacturing | Confirm belt pitch, width, surface style, sprocket compatibility, and operating temperature limits for the selected resin. |
| Open-area and drainage belts | Modules with perforations or open-grid construction | PP, PE, acetal (POM) | Open surfaces that allow airflow, liquid drainage, and washdown; open area varies by module design | Cooling, washing, drying, and conveying products that need drainage or airflow | Check open area, product support, hole or grid geometry, and cleanability requirements. |
| Curved and side-flexing belts | Side-flexing modular construction designed for curved conveyor paths | Common engineering thermoplastics, including acetal (POM) and PP | Curve-compatible belt and sprocket configurations; allowable curve radius depends on belt design and conveyor layout | Space-constrained production lines, accumulation systems, and packaging conveyors | Request the specified minimum inner and outer radii, allowable belt width, and load limits for the intended layout. |
| High-grip and inclined-conveying belts | Modular surfaces with molded texture or flights | PP, PE, acetal (POM); material availability varies by design | Raised flights, textured surfaces, and other features to help control product movement on inclines or declines | Inclined transfer, elevation changes, and handling products prone to sliding | Check flight height and spacing, product stability, transfer points, and the conveyor angle under actual operating conditions. |
| Food-contact and hygienic designs | Modular belts with surfaces and joints selected for the process environment | Food-contact grades of PP, PE, or acetal (POM), subject to supplier documentation | Design options may include open surfaces, cleanable profiles, and materials selected for specific food-processing conditions | Food and beverage processing, including washdown areas | Verify applicable food-contact documentation, cleaning-chemical compatibility, temperature limits, and hygiene requirements for the target market. |
| High-load or wear-focused designs | Reinforced modular constructions or designs using wear-resistant engineering plastics | Acetal (POM), reinforced thermoplastics, or other specified engineering polymers | Material and module options intended to address load, abrasion, impact, or dimensional stability needs | Industrial conveying, heavier products, and demanding operating cycles | Compare allowable working load, belt speed, support spacing, wear data, and the effects of temperature and chemical exposure. |
| Custom and system-matched supply | Standard modules assembled to suit a conveyor, with compatible drive and return components | Selected according to application, environment, and required compliance | Potential services include belt sizing, sprocket matching, flight or side-guard selection, and replacement-belt identification | Retrofits, OEM equipment, and multi-site conveyor installations | Provide conveyor drawings, existing belt specifications, shaft and sprocket details, operating conditions, and destination-market requirements. |
