Zhanjiang, China – QBF rubber has successfully completed the on-site installation and commissioning of its electric furnace grade sidewall conveyor belt for the Baowu Zhanjiang Steel project - one of China's most advanced steel manufacturing bases.
The Challenge
Electric furnace applications involve continuous exposure to high-temperature slag, heavy impact from eccentric feeding, and steep-angle conveying up to 90°. Under these conditions, standard conveyor belts often suffer from carcass softening, cover plate hardening, and cleat detachment.
The Solution
Designed specifically for high-temperature, heavy-load, and large-inclination conditions,QBF rubber's sidewall belt features:
- Heat-Resistant Rubber Compound – Prevents thermal aging and cracking, maintaining flexibility under prolonged high-temperature operation.
- High-Rigidity Skeleton Structure – Anti-sagging design ensures excellent troughability and tracking stability, even on long-center, steep-angle conveyors.
- Hot-Vulcanized Cleat Bonding – Meets European standards, delivering exceptional adhesion strength to resist impact and prevent cleat loss.
The Result
Longer service life and smoother operation under extreme slag handling conditions. Early commissioning feedback confirms stable performance with reduced unplanned downtime.
A Trusted Alternative to European Brands
This project demonstrates QBF rubber's capability to replace established European brands (such as ContiTech and Flexowell) in demanding metallurgical applications. As a recognized "Specialized and Sophisticated" enterprise and industry standard leader,QBF rubber continues to provide reliable, high-performance conveying solutions for heavy industries worldwide.
