What's Conveyor Belt

Conveyor and elevator belts are made to precise specifications and standards to service many useful functions. A better understanding of the complexities involved in manufacturing belting and the standards that are applied to it will be helpful in selecting the proper belt for the intended use and in obtaining good service after installation.

Belting covered in the videos includes conveyor belting, used to transport bulk or packaged, boxed and bagged materials, and bucket elevator belting. The belting may be made of natural and synthetic rubbers as well as plastics, such as vinyl, with carcasses of textile fabrics, which are woven, nonwoven, solid woven, or stitched; fabric cords; or of steel cables.

The videos are intended for the general guidance and reference of persons interested in the selection and use of conveyor and elevator belting.
