Some conveyor configurations may have difficulties to ensure a standard conveyor belt to run straight, especially if they’re wide and short, or run in bidirectional systems. This can lead to increased wear, maintenance costs, and downtime while at the same time complicate conveyor operation and design.
YONGLI solution:
YONGLI self-tracking belts offer a streamlined and cost-effective solution for conveyor systems. By combining a crowned pulley with a specially designed elastic fabric, the need for V-guides underneath the belt is eliminated. This simplifies the conveyor design and removes a common wear part. When able to install the belt under tension, the conveyor does not require a tensioning system, reducing complexity and further lowering costs. An ideal solution for conveyors that convey a relatively low product weight and at the same time have short & wide, bidirectional and/or start-stop configurations. These belts are commonly used in logistics and airports (cross belt sorters, accumulators) and food processing.
