The Trusted Metal Conveyor Belt Manufacturer™Mesh Types Standard Balanced Spiral (BS) The assembly consists of alternating left and right hand coils with each coil interconnecting with the next by means of a crimped cross wire. Double Balanced Spiral (DBS) The double balanced assembly is similar to standard balanced spiral but uses coil pairs of each handing intermeshing and then link by means of the crimped cross wire with pairs of intermeshing opposite hand coils on a repeat pattern down the length. This style allows for closer pitching of coils across the width for small product handling. Improved Balanced Spiral (IBS) The structure of this belt is similar to "Standard Balanced Spiral" but uses a straight cross wire with single interconnecting coils in a repeat pattern of left hand/right hand down the length. This assembly allows for a closer pitching of single coils across the width for small product handling. Improved Double Balanced Spiral (IDBS) The structure of this belt is similar to "Double Balanced Spiral" but uses a straight cross wire with double intermeshing coils ofeach handing interconnecting by means of the straight cross wire ina repeat pattern of left hand/right hand coils down the length. This assembly allows for a closer pitching of coils across the width for small product handling. Flat Wire alternatives In general, all of the above styles are available with coil wires manufactured using a flattened wire. When identifying the coil wire it is important to confirm the cross section dimensions.

Belt Edge Types Welded Edge (W) - mesh only This is the most common and economical edge finish. With welding together of both the coil and crimp wires there are not cut wire ends. Laddered Edge (LD) - mesh only Less common than the welded edge the laddered edge is often used where welds are not desirable for the application. It is also an option in applications where welding facilities are not available. The belt edge is also smooth and allows more belt edge flexibility. It is also more efficient in high temperature applications as the laddered edge is not under operational strain in use and...

The Trusted Metal Conveyor Belt Manufacturer™ Various other styles of chain edge finish include: Cross rod welded flush to the hollow pin of the side chain. This is not a preferred standard but may be necessary where width between conveyor side frames and other structural parts create a limitation where "welded washer" or "washer & cotter pin" cannot be used. Cross rod welded flush through drilled hole on inner plates of roller conveyor chain. In general, the chain edge driven belts as shown above are available with 2 styles of edge chain: Transmission Chain Transmission chain has a small roller....

BALANCED SPIRAL WOVEN Chain Edge Drive With this assembly of belt, the cross pitch ofthe belt mesh is manufactured to ensure that the chain edge is the driving medium with the belt mesh being pulled through the circuit bythe chains. Available Specifications Positive Drive Belt Specifications
