Types of mechanical belt Fasteners
Heavy Duty Fasteners
A tension fastener of this nature is applied in operations with high integrity and industries such as the mining, construction, and heavy production industries. They are designed to withstand over force and weight applications and abrasive content. Made from steel or other robust materials, these fixers give a permanent fasten on deep conveyors since they are used where the belts are extremely filthy and crowded.
Key features:
Very high bolt pulling strength and shear strength
Ability to withstand wearing, shock, and adverse operating conditions
Suitability for severe weight belts of heavy construction
Types of heavy-duty fasteners
These fixed, non-hinged fasteners are attached through bolts or rivets on solid metal plates, guaranteeing an inflexible but very strong joint. Due to the continuous construction of the plates, the junction is more stiffly reinforced to bear the rugged working conditions.
Ended conveyor belts are joined together through bolted hinges that allow for flexibility during chain operation and support the loads experienced in the operations. These are the hinges whereby belts can flex and turn around machinery at the same time as power is retained.
Light-duty plastic fasteners are normally used with flexible and lightweight conveyor belts for lower-intensity packaging, food processing, or low-light manufacturing applications. Such fasteners can be closely installed and, therefore, consist of such materials as plastic and even lighter metals. These are for belts that are moderate on loads being transported or the speeds that have been worked at.
Key Features:
Lightweight and easy to install
Suitable for thin, flexible belts
Used in less aggressive, light-duty conditions
Combined fasteners integrate multiple fastening functions within a single component, streamlining assembly and improving structural stability. They are commonly used in industries requiring durable, efficient connections, reducing the need for multiple parts and enhancing overall productivity.
Features of mechanical belt fasteners
Mechanical Fastener Rating
Buckles allow varying belt tension from 315 to 1000 N/ mm for several applications’ stronger and safer belt connections.
Pulley Diameter Range
Designed for pulley diameters from 300 mm up to 1220 mm, allowing for versatile conveyor configurations.
Specially Formed Teeth
Each fastener includes hooked shaped-up teeth that interact with the belt carcass in a way that ensures that it grips the carcass tightly without compromising the fibers that make up the carcass.
Belt Compatibility
This product is appropriate for belts that can be 5mm to 24mm in thickness to suit industries’ variety.
Sift-Free Splice
Furnishes a dependable splice, free of sifting, a perfect solution for fluid transfer such as sand, gravel, crushed stones, and cement.
Piloted Bolts for Easy Installation
Featuring piloted bolts construction, which lets avoid losses of time during repairs or replacement of belts, tighten up constantly with no considerable efforts required.
Applications
Mining
Promotes enhanced mechanical sustainability of critical conveyor systems that transport large quantities of raw materials, reducing system downtimes.
Cement
Greatly utilized for site transport of sand, gravel and cement, increasing operational output in abrasive conditions.
Food Processing
Provides food-safe fasteners meeting safety requirements for seamless and safe food handling.
Agriculture
This will allow for easy fixing on conveyors that transport crops and also other agricultural production hence increasing the throughput.
Construction
It constitutes dependable performance in harsh environments and has proved useful in the transport of materials in construction areas.
Why choose a mechanical belt fastening system?
Choosing a mechanical belt fastening system offers several advantages, making it a popular choice for many industries:
Quick Installation
Its installation is very easy by using mechanical fasteners. Therefore, it will not interrupt the production for a very long time.
Cost-Effective
Compared with vulcanization or other more permanent types of bonding, mechanical fastening is much cheaper and does not involve costly machines.
Easy Maintenance
Mechanical fasteners enable easy repair and adjustments, and belts can easily be repaired or repaired without the help of a professional.
Versatility
Versatile enough to work for various types of belts and materials and useful in many different industries.
Reusable
Using mechanical fasteners is understood to be reusable and thus can be more cost effective in the long term.
Durability
Mechanical fasteners, conversely, are very robust, designed to hold high loads, and are made of very strong materials that can endure very harsh conditions.
No Special Environment Needed
Mechanical fastening does not involve temperature or humidity control as in vulcanizing, and it is suitable for installation at the site.
