Product Description
The PVC/PU Belt Conveyor uses a continuous conveyor belt made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or PU (polyurethane) as both the carrying and traction medium. The belt runs over drive and tail pulleys, forming an endless loop, with support rollers underneath to reduce sag. The drive pulley transmits power through friction between the pulley and the belt surface .
PVC belts are economical, durable all-rounders suitable for most general conveying applications . PU belts offer superior abrasion resistance and chemical resistance, making them the preferred choice for food processing and other demanding environments .

Applications
Widely used across multiple industries for light to medium weight material handling:
Food & Beverage: Food-grade PVC/PU belts meet FDA standards for direct food contact; ideal for snack processing, baked goods, produce, frozen foods, beverages, and confectionery
Pharmaceutical & Medical: Clean-room conveying for medicines and medical supplies
Electronics & Assembly: Production lines for electronic parts, instruments, and assembly operations
Tobacco & Printing: Cigarette production lines, printing, packaging
Packaging & Logistics: Labeling machines, cardboard handling, logistics sorting
Textile & Light Industry: Textile machinery, garment production
Suitable configurations include straight flat belt conveyors, inclined/decline (climbing) conveyors, curved/turning conveyors, and troughed belt conveyors .
Our Advantages
| Feature | Description |

| Smooth & stable conveying | Gentle material handling with no relative motion between belt and product, minimizing damage |
| Flexible customization | Various belt surface patterns (smooth, diamond, grass, rough), colors, thicknesses, and plies; can add flights, skirts, side guards, and guide bars |
| Versatile configurations | Supports straight, incline/decline, and turning layouts; suitable for complex factory floor plans |
| Easy maintenance | Simple structure, easy belt replacement, low maintenance costs |
| Electrical properties | Anti-static options available; some belts feature static-dissipative construction |
FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between PVC and PU conveyor belts?
PVC belts are more economical and versatile, suitable for most general industrial applications. PU belts offer superior abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, and are preferred for food processing and demanding environments .
Q2: Are food-grade options available?
Yes. Both PVC and PU belts are available in food-grade versions that comply with EU and FDA standards, ensuring safe contact with unpackaged food products .
Q3: What surface patterns are available?
Common options include smooth flat surface, diamond pattern, grass pattern, rough top, golf pattern, and skid-proof surfaces. Pattern choice affects grip and product stability .
Q4: Can the conveyor handle inclined paths?
Yes. Incline/decline (climbing) configurations are available. For steep inclines, optional flights (baffles) and side skirts can be added to prevent material slippage .
Q5: What is the maximum belt width?
Standard widths range from 200mm to 1200mm, and can be customized up to 3000mm depending on requirements .
Q6: What is the maximum conveying speed?
Generally up to 60m/min; common operating speeds are 3–15m/min, with variable speed control via frequency inverter .
Q7: Is the belt anti-static?
Yes. Certain PVC belts feature anti-static properties (ISO 284 compliant), preventing static electricity buildup and dust attraction. Some PU belts also offer static-dissipative options .
Q8: What is the operating temperature range?
Typically -10°C to +90°C, with some variants capable of up to +120°C .
Q9: Can accessories be added to the belt?
Yes. Flights (baffles), side skirts, guide bars, cleats, and sponge can be added to meet specific conveying requirements .
Q10: What frame materials are available?
Carbon steel with spray coating (for standard environments), stainless steel (304 – for food/hygiene applications), or aluminum alloy (for lightweight/corrosion-resistant needs).
