Custom Conveyor Belt Systems: Which is Best for You?
When it comes to conveyor belt systems, every business has its own unique needs and requirements. Sometimes standard conveyors are not up to the task. Instead, a company has to look towards custom conveyor belts to ensure they receive the design, precision, and quality required to maximize productivity levels.
As one of the leading conveyor manufacturers in the United States, we know a thing or two about putting together custom-built conveyor belts that match the demands of clients. We can do everything from creating a bespoke conveyor system from the ground up to add a conveyor solution to your existing systems.
With our experience and proficiency in designing custom conveyor belts, we can also help you in picking the right system for you. As a guide, here’s a quick look at the main custom-built conveyor belts available, giving you an idea about which is best for your business.
Roller chain conveyors
Available in both light and heavy-duty variations, roller chain conveyors are the option to go with when you want to design and manufacture a system that will transport waste materials across your facility. Whether you’re dealing with paper, plastics, cardboard, scrap metal, or aluminum, these custom conveyor belts will ensure all material is moved along efficiently through your recycling system.
Plus, due to being 100% custom conveyor solutions, roller conveyors can be integrated seamlessly with any of your current recycling and waste processing applications.
Slider bed conveyors
Are you dealing with lightweight recyclables and materials? If so, slider bed conveyors are designed specifically for the likes of ONP, OCC, glass, HDPE, and PET. Even though they deal with lightweight items, don’t underestimate the robustness of these custom conveyor belts. Our conveyors are designed to transfer materials across different elevations and long distances, all with the durability and high-performance you expect for years to come.
Trough idler conveyors
When searching for custom conveyor belts that can handle materials like gravel, sand, tires, and wood, a trough idler conveyor system is a top option. This custom-built conveyor is made to last, where it provides smooth operation that can handle large volumes of rigid, abrasive materials. In addition, idler conveyors are created with easy maintenance in mind, which means you don’t have to worry about potential issues slowing down production.
Package handling conveyors
As the name suggests, package handling conveyors are an ideal solution for distributing and sorting facilities dealing with large quantities of packages. A custom-designed package handling conveyor belt system is capable of moving 1,000’s of packages each hour to guarantee optimum efficiency.
Of course, there are various specifications to consider before designing a complete custom solution. You have to think about what material handling will be done, the maximum load capacity, conveyor belt speed, etc. For further assistance about custom conveyor belts and systems, contact Fluent Conveyors today.
