Filter Conveyor Belting

Qingdao Best Friend Rubber & Plastic Co., Ltd. is one of the most reliable manufacturers and suppliers of filter conveyor belting in China, also supports customized service. If you're going to buy high quality filter conveyor belting made in China, welcome to get more information from our factory.

Filter conveyor belting has been used in specialized dewatering process equipment for separating solids from liquids in a slurry.
The top cover of the filter conveyor belting is arranged in rows of grooves as the drainage. There is a row of holes in the middle of the grooves which can collect the liquid in the vacuum box.Sidewalls on both sides increase the capacity of the filtration conveyor and help prevent spillage. The sidewalls are available in different heights and styles.

One of the significant benefits of filter conveyor belting is its high chemical resistance capabilities. It can withstand harsh chemicals and solvents without deteriorating or getting damaged. This characteristic makes it ideal for industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemical processing plants where harsh chemicals are used regularly.

The holes are made by rubber fabric free zone and block the chemical liquid through the fabric layers so that improve the service life.
Filter conveyor belt is also acid and alkali resistant, which means it can endure acidic and alkaline applications without corroding. This feature is vital for industries such as wastewater treatment plants and chemical processing plants, where acidic and alkaline substances are present.

● EP fabric with high strength.
● Good chemical resistance, acid and alkali resistant, heat resistant, oil resistant etc.
● Low elongation rate under constant load and not easy to deform, dimension stability, Operation goes smoothly and no elongation in the future running.
● High temperature stability.
● Consistent straightness.
● Fabric free zone.

How Does Filter Conveyor Belt work?

Most filter belts are heat treated polyester; some are polypropylene, polyolefin or PEEK. Stainless steel mesh is also utilized in filtering or dewatering conveyor applications. Filter belts are used to remove or reduce the number of impurities in a fluid supply. Filtration products and equipment have two basic components, the filter and the media. The filter itself is the frame or housing that holds the media in place as a process stream is run through them. The media or material is responsible for the entrapment, collection or dissolution of impurities.

Functions of Filter Conveyor Belting

Heavy duty rubber filter belts, also called carrier belts, are used in specialized dewatering process equipment for separating solids from liquids in a slurry. These belts are highly engineered and built to very exact tolerances and specifications.

A variety of drainage hole patterns are available for different filtering applications. The drainage holes usually straddle the ribs between the two grooves, allowing one hole to drain both grooves. Hole patterns can be repeated across the width of the filtration belt if needed.

Filter belt grooves are usually one of the three basic shapes: V, Round, or U, with the V-shape being the most common. The purpose of the grooves is to transport the liquid being drained to the drainage holes. Grooves are either cut or ground into the top cover of the belt, leaving the carcass intact and protected.

Skirts increase the capacity of the filtration conveyor and help prevent spillage. Skirt styles and heights are determined for each specific application.

When the belt carcass must be protected from the liquid being filtered, we offer filter belts with fabric-free zones. These belts have the entire carcass removed from exposed areas, usually around the drainage holes and often the edges of the belt. The carcass of the belt is safely protected by a wall of solid rubber.

Many filtration belts have guides on the bottom of the belt to keep the drainage holes centered over the vacuum chamber or to aid in tracking. Several guides can be spread across the width of the belt, depending upon the number of vacuum chambers on the conveyor. Most often, the drainage holes run through both the filter belt and the bottom guides.

Advantages of Filter Conveyor Belting

Oil Filter Belts

These belts, using an 80-micronmesh and a side chain drive, are supplied to suit a range of proprietary continuous food fryer oil filter conveyors. Standard belts are available from stock, other sizes are produced to order.

Troughing Paper Filter Support Belts

For industrial applications, handling small-machine parts, or swarf, we offer various troughing belts for use with filter paper.

There are Various Arrangements of This Style of Belt

Honeycomb (Flat Wire) central mesh and loose flexible chain link mesh edges.

Chain edge rodded central mesh and loose flexible chain link mesh edges.

Other variations are available upon request.

How to Select the Right Replacement Conveyor Belts

Product

It is critical to select the correct replacement conveyor belt for the actual product or package you are conveying. For example, with metal stamping, a hard urethane surface is often preferred to resist cuts and gouges. Rough top textures are required in many incline applications so they can resist the tendency to slip downhill, and bakeries require dough release in many applications--a cotton surface may be exactly what is needed for a bakery.

Pulley Diameter

Take the time to measure the smallest pulley the belt will travel around - what does this measure as? Does the pulley on the discharge end rotate or feature a fixed nose roller or knife edge? If your belt has a complicated travel circuit with back bending, it will need to be noted as well. All belts have a minimum bend radius which is published on their technical data sheets.

Size

Did you know that the carcass of conveyor belts is designed to work with different width-to-length ratios of conveyors? For example, conveyors with a short overall length and relatively wide width are usually more difficult to track.

Application

What is your conveyor doing to your product? Are you removing bread from pans, stamping car parts, or stacking corrugated containers? Conveyor belts feature a wide variety of surfaces and textures that are designed to enhance your operation.

Contamination

Across the board, the most common cause of replacement belt tracking issues is tied directly to contamination. Oils, dirt, dust, product, and even worn rubber from your pulley lagging - these are common causes that need to be assessed prior to selecting the best replacement conveyor belt.
