What are conveyor belts? What role do these products play in factories and manufacturing facilities? Let's explore this product category with Belota in the article below.
A conveyor belt is a material handling transmission device that assists in moving goods and materials from one location to another quickly. It is considered an essential transportation method in production and assembly lines of factories and manufacturing facilities, helping to minimise manual labour while delivering high economic efficiency. The system enables rapid transportation of materials and goods with substantial weight. Particularly, this type of equipment also makes workers' tasks easier, reducing the risk of back and knee injuries, thereby ensuring workplace safety.

Conveyor belt systems are widely favoured for goods transportation
The product operates on the following principle: when two pulleys (rollers) - the driving and driven shafts - rotate in the same direction and speed over a long strip, the belt will move accordingly. The belt movement is achieved through tensional friction between the rollers. When the driving roller rotates, frictional force pulls the belt along. To generate sufficient frictional force, the position and tension of the rollers must be properly adjusted and appropriately calibrated to prevent deviation (anti-tracking). The rotating roller is activated by a geared reduction motor and speed can be controlled through frequency converters. A complete system may include sensors, PLC-programmed control systems, along with warning and emergency safety systems.

Standard and precise operating principles
These are considered products primarily used in heavy industry, comprising long rubber belts with fabric or steel reinforcement, moving via support rollers underneath. Rubber conveyor belts are used to transport various materials. Speed varies depending on production equipment requirements.

Rubber conveyor belts used in heavy industrial sectors
This product is also known as a goods transport elevator. The system is used to transport box-shaped products from low positions to high positions vertically.
Curved conveyor belts redirect products from 30 to 180 degrees, with various types including: 90-degree curved conveyor belts, PVC curved conveyor belts and others. Depending on the purpose and requirements of each factory and manufacturing facility, customers can make appropriate selections.
The system is designed in a circular spiral with an inclination of less than 10 degrees, moving in both directions with multiple spiral levels. This type has frames encased by metal sheets for rust prevention. The spiral structure particularly helps minimise factory floor space.
Basic construction includes frames, roller systems, frequency converter control units, belting and other components. This type assists in transporting and screening small-sized products quickly and effectively. The product features stable design and continuous operation, ensuring high work efficiency. Additionally, this type can operate in harsh environments, making it suitable for various production models.
Products include types such as: plastic rollers, galvanised steel rollers, stainless steel rollers, and motor-driven rollers. Roller conveyor belts are used to transport products ranging from light to heavy weight, suitable for various industrial environments from standard to chemical and corrosive conditions.

Roller conveyor belts
This product type has the capability to change height to deliver goods to multiple positions. The product is extensively used in warehouses specifically for moving goods onto trucks or vice versa.
Products with excellent heat resistance, suitable for use in industries with high-temperature working environments. Basic construction includes heat-resistant conveyor belts, stainless steel belting, PU belting and others, used in electronic component welding circuits, food processing and similar applications.
This product type features mesh belting with high heat resistance and excellent heat retention properties. With the function of reducing product drying time, it is extensively used in seafood, food and agricultural product industries.
This type is similar to PVC; however, the product has superior belt quality. PU belts contain no toxic substances. They are extensively used in food production industries, confectionery and related sectors.
This product type has very small dimensions and is used in machinery manufacturing. This type typically serves as a machine component for feeding products and parts to each stage in the production process.
Various product models are widely used in industries such as electronic equipment manufacturing, automotive assembly, machinery manufacturing and others. Additionally, they are utilised in food production, textile and footwear industries. Not limited to production stages, products are also applied for goods transportation and product packaging in warehouses with the purpose of optimising transportation and distribution processes.
Depending on each product type, model, and quality, prices also vary considerably. Additionally, determining factors for pricing depend on manufacturing units. In the current market, average prices range from 5.000.000 to 15.000.000 VND. These prices may change depending on actual production conditions; therefore, for accurate pricing, customers can contact suppliers directly.
It can be said that conveyor belts are the optimal choice for current manufacturing facilities, factories, and enterprises.
