Belt Engineering and Reference Data

Adhesions
This information is crucial in determining belting life expectancy and the overall quality of a belting product. [Learn More]

Belting Comparison Guide
Comparison table of heavy duty conveyor belting manufactured in the United States of America. [Learn More]

Belt Tensioning
Proper minimum belt tension is the tension required so that a given belt conveyor or belt elevator system will operate properly in its environment. [Learn More]

Belt Camber
If unbalanced warp tensions exist in a conveyor belt, that belt will usually assume a "crescent" or "banana" shape when laid flat upon a horizontal surface. This deviation from a straight line is hereby defined as "camber." [Learn More]

Belting Grades
RMA Original Specifications and revised RMA 1994 specifications.
[Learn More]


Conveyor Belt Storage & Shipping
Modern conveyor belts are very durable products, but they can be adversely affected by improper storage and shipping practices. The basic recommended practices for belt storage/shipping are provided.
[Learn More]


Conveyor Belt Tracking
The basic, and primary rule of tracking a conveyor belt is simply "THE BELT MOVES TOWARD THAT END OF THE ROLL IT CONTACTS FIRST."
[Learn More]


Impact Resistance
Improvements in load design and/or conveyor equipment may be required if belting is prematurely failing from material impact.
[Learn More]


Glossary of Conveyor Belting Terms
A complete glossary of conveyor and belting terms. [Learn More]

Standard Elevator Bucket Punching
No Definition [Learn More]

Tension Calculation
The purpose of this section is to provide a simple and efficient method to select the best conveyor belt for many common applications. It may provide a way to quickly double check a given design. [Learn More]

Tolerance Guides
Allowable rubber belt working tolerances as specified by the NIBA.
[Learn More]


Weights of Various Materials
Weight Table of Conveyed Materials. [Learn More]

Vulcanized Splices
Vulcanized splices provide a method of joining the ends of conveyor belts without interrupting the continuity of the belts, and usually without altering the geometry or dimensions of the belts. [Learn More]
