Textile Conveyor Belt,Conveyor belts with a Textile Carcass

Textile conveyor belts are widely used in industrial material handling systems to transport bulk materials and packaged products continuously and efficiently. Featuring a textile carcass reinforced with woven fabric layers, these belts provide a practical combination of tensile strength, flexibility, dimensional stability, and reliable conveying performance.

Conveyor belts with a textile carcass are available in several reinforcement constructions, including EP polyester fabric, NN nylon fabric, and other textile configurations. The appropriate carcass depends on belt tension, conveyor length, belt speed, pulley diameter, material characteristics, and operating environment.

Textile conveyor belts are commonly used in mining, quarrying, coal handling, aggregate processing, cement plants, power generation, ports, warehouses, recycling facilities, agriculture, and general industrial conveying. Different rubber cover compounds can also be selected to address abrasion, heat, oil, weather, or other application requirements.

What Is A Textile Conveyor Belt?

A textile conveyor belt is a continuous conveyor belt constructed with one or more textile reinforcement layers inside the rubber belt body. The textile carcass serves as the primary load-bearing component, while the top and bottom rubber covers protect the reinforcement and provide the working surface.

Unlike steel cord conveyor belts, which use steel cables as their longitudinal tensile members, textile conveyor belts use synthetic or natural textile materials. Modern industrial belts commonly use polyester, nylon, or combinations of textile fibers.

The term "textile carcass" describes the internal reinforcement structure rather than the belt's external surface. A belt can therefore have a textile carcass while still having a rubber top cover designed for heavy-duty bulk material conveying.

EP Textile Conveyor Belt

EP conveyor belts are one of the most widely used textile carcass constructions for industrial conveying. EP refers to polyester in the longitudinal direction and polyamide in the transverse direction of the fabric.

The polyester longitudinal reinforcement provides tensile strength and dimensional stability, while the polyamide transverse component contributes flexibility and resistance to transverse stresses.

EP belts are suitable for many bulk material handling applications and are available in different tensile grades and ply configurations. They can be manufactured with different cover thicknesses and rubber compounds according to the intended application.

NN Textile Conveyor Belt

NN conveyor belts use nylon fabric reinforcement. Nylon provides flexibility and good resistance to dynamic bending, making NN construction suitable for conveyor systems requiring repeated flexing.

NN belts can be considered for mining, quarrying, aggregate, material handling, and other industrial applications. The appropriate construction should be determined from conveyor tension, pulley diameter, loading conditions, and other system parameters.

Key Features And Benefits
Flexible Textile Reinforcement

Textile carcasses provide flexibility that allows the belt to travel around conveyor pulleys and through properly designed conveyor structures.

Reliable Tensile Performance

Multiple textile plies or appropriate fabric constructions can provide the tensile strength required for different conveyor applications.

Good Dimensional Stability

EP fabric construction can provide relatively low elongation, helping maintain stable conveyor operation when properly tensioned.

Abrasion Resistant Options

For coal, rock, aggregate, ore, and other abrasive materials, suitable abrasion-resistant cover compounds can be specified.

Heat Resistant Options

Where hot materials are conveyed, heat-resistant rubber compounds may be available depending on the belt design and operating requirements.

Oil Resistant Options

For applications involving oily or greasy materials, an appropriate oil-resistant cover compound can be considered.

Weather Resistant Options

Outdoor conveyors can require resistance to sunlight, moisture, temperature changes, and other environmental conditions. Suitable cover formulations can be selected when available.

Customizable Construction

Belt width, length, carcass type, tensile grade, number of plies, cover thickness, rubber grade, edge construction, and surface pattern can be customized according to project requirements.

Applications Of Textile Carcass Conveyor Belts

Textile conveyor belts are suitable for a broad range of applications, including:

Mining
Coal Handling
Quarrying
Aggregate Processing
Stone Crushing Plants
Sand Processing
Cement Plants
Power Plants
Ports And Terminals
Bulk Material Handling
Recycling Plants
Agriculture
Grain Handling
Warehousing
Manufacturing
Construction Material Transportation

The belt should always be matched to the material and operating conditions. For example, a belt used for iron ore may require different cover characteristics from one used for grain or packaged goods.

Textile Carcass Construction And Belt Selection

Selecting the correct textile conveyor belt begins with understanding the conveyor system.

Important parameters include belt width, conveyor length, conveying capacity, belt speed, material density, maximum lump size, conveyor inclination, loading impact, belt tension, pulley diameter, and environmental conditions.

For abrasive materials such as rock, crushed stone, iron ore, and aggregate, abrasion resistance is an important consideration. For coal mining, especially underground applications, additional flame-resistant and antistatic requirements may apply.

EP and NN carcasses should also be selected according to the mechanical requirements of the conveyor. Longer and higher-tension conveyors may require a different reinforcement construction from short conveyors.

Textile Conveyor Belt For Mining

Mining applications place significant demands on conveyor belts. Coal, ore, rock, and aggregate can cause surface abrasion and impact during loading and transportation.

Textile carcass conveyor belts can provide an effective solution for many mining and quarry conveyors when the belt construction is correctly matched to the conveyor design.

For underground coal mines, the belt must be selected according to the applicable mine safety regulations, including any requirements for flame resistance, antistatic performance, and certification.

For surface mining, quarrying, and aggregate operations, abrasion resistance, impact conditions, conveyor length, and outdoor weather exposure may be more significant considerations.

Installation And Maintenance

Proper conveyor alignment is essential for textile belt performance. Before commissioning, inspect the conveyor frame, pulleys, idlers, take-up system, belt cleaners, and loading points.

The belt should be installed with appropriate tension and tracking adjustments. Excessive tension can increase mechanical stress, while insufficient tension can contribute to slipping and tracking problems.

During operation, regularly inspect the top cover, bottom cover, belt edges, joints, and textile carcass for signs of damage or abnormal wear.

Keep loading zones clean and properly aligned. Material buildup on pulleys and idlers can affect tracking and increase belt wear.

Regular preventive maintenance can help identify developing problems before they result in unexpected conveyor downtime.
