How do I select the right conveyor belt material based on the conveyed material, such as abrasiveness and temperature?

Choosing the right conveyor belt material requires a detailed understanding of the conveyed material and working conditions. The first step is to check key factors such as particle size, abrasiveness, sharpness, temperature, oil or chemical exposure, moisture content, and whether the material is easy to roll or stick. These characteristics affect the required belt cover performance and structure.

In addition, conveyor operating conditions should also be considered, including conveyor length, lifting height, loading capacity, belt speed, inclination angle, impact from material dropping, pulley diameter, working hours, and safety requirements. Based on these factors, the suitable conveyor belt can be selected by evaluating the carcass type, cover compound, surface pattern, belt thickness, and reinforcement method. A proper selection helps improve belt performance, service life, and reliability during operation.
