What is the material of nylon conveyor belt
2024-07-01 17:28In June 2021, our company shipped a 200-meter nylon conveyor with a bandwidth of 1200mm to a cement yard in Malaysia for the transmission and delivery of cement
Nylon conveyor belt, the middle canvas is nylon canvas.
Nylon (NN) conveyor belt has the characteristics of thin belt body, high strength, impact resistance, good groove formation, strong inter-layer adhesion, excellent flexibility and long service life.
It is suitable for medium and long distances and high load capacity. , transporting materials under high-speed conditions, widely used in mining, coal fields, chemical industry, metallurgy, construction, ports and other departments.
What kinds of materials in the nylon conveyor belt?
Nylon conveyor belt is kind of a common conveyor belt material, mainly made of nylon fiber. The following are about the detailed introduction of nylon conveyor belt.
One. Nylon fiber
Nylon fiber, also called polyamide fiber, is a synthetic fiber material. It has high strength, high toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and high temperature. The tensile strength of nylon fiber is usually 4-5 times of ordinary cotton fiber, which has high elastic modules and relatively good resilience. That makes nylon fiber one of the ideal materials to be made of conveyor belts.
Two. Manufacturing process of nylon conveyor belt
Fiber preparation: The raw material of nylon is prepared into nylon fiber through the dissolution and spinning process.
Weaving: The nylon fiber trough is woven trough the weaving machine to form the skeleton structure of conveyor belt.
Coating: coating a layer of rubber or plastic materials on the woven nylon conveyor belt to provide the wear resistance and friction of surface.
Processing: The coated nylon conveyor belt is Cut, welded, and punched and other processes to form the conveyor belts that meet the requirements.
Third. Characteristics of nylon conveyor belts
High strength: Nylon fiber with really high strength which makes nylon conveyor belt could withstand relative large tension and heavy loaded goods.
Wear resistance: Nylon fiber has excellent wear resistance that makes nylon conveyor belt could maintain good using life during a long time of running.
Corrosion resistance: Nylon fiber has a certain property of corrosion resistance that suits for using in many different environment conditions.
Lightweight: To be compared with metal conveyor belt, nylon conveyor belt has a lighter weight that are convenient to install and maintain.
Low noise: Nylon conveyor belt will generate a relatively low noise during the operation period that reduce the interference for working ambient.
Great joint performance: The joint of nylon conveyor belt is firm and reliable, it is not prone to break and loose.
Four. Application of nylon conveyor belts
Nylon conveyor belts are extensively applied in mining, ports, metallurgical, building construction and chemical industry for transportation of materials. It could transport the variety of materials such as coal, ore, limestone, cement, sand, and gravel, etc. The wear resistance , strength, and corrosion property of nylon conveyor belt that makes it become an ideal choice for heavy and long distance of transportation.
