How Cleated Conveyor Belts Handle Everything, From Heavy Loads to Steep Angles!
Not all conveyor belts are made equally for securely and effectively transporting items up steep slopes or across production lines. The Cleated Conveyor Belt is a material handling powerhouse that is becoming more and more popular in almost every industry. Cleated belts are becoming essential for every industry, including mining, agriculture, food processing, and recycling. A cleated conveyor belt is basically a conventional belt with extra ridges called cleats that run over it. Depending on the purpose, these cleats might be made of rubber, PVC, or thermoplastics. To withstand stress and pressure, the foundation belt is often strengthened with layers of steel, cloth, or Kevlar.
