Belts in the Tile and Ceramics Industry
The tile and ceramics industry is a key sector in building materials production, relying heavily on high-quality industrial belts due to the need for high precision, production speed, and equipment durability. Industrial belts play a vital role in transporting raw materials, moving products through various production stages, and packaging. Selecting the appropriate belts not only boosts production line efficiency but also significantly reduces maintenance and repair costs.
Commonly Used Belts in the Tile and Ceramics Industry
Rubber Timing Belts
Rubber timing belts are used in more precise sections of the production line, such as cutting machines and tile sorting systems. They contribute to improved production quality through high-precision motion transfer and synchronization with motors and mechanical systems. Features: High precision, design flexibility
Polyurethane (PU) Timing Belts
PU timing belts are applied in areas like production lines, glazing, or tile sorting systems. For example, AT20-grade belts from Megadyne (Italy) are used in sensitive sections, such as chamfering machines. These belts are often welded with an anti-abrasion layer for greater durability and play a key role in enhancing production quality through precise motion transfer and synchronization with motors and mechanical systems. Features: High precision, long-term durability, design flexibility
Welded Belts
Welded belts, including poly cord (round) and V-shaped (trapezoidal or V-profile), are made from polyurethane (PU) or PVC. They are joined into endless loops using heat or metal clamps, offering high flexibility. Poly cord belts range from 3 to 22 mm in diameter (smooth or reinforced), while welded V-belts are available in profiles A, B, and C (smooth, reinforced, gripped, or pentagonal). High-quality brands like BOND-A-BAND (UK) are stocked. Features: Flexibility, abrasion and chemical resistance, easy joining, wide temperature range
V-Belts
V-belts are among the most widely used industrial belts in the tile and ceramics industry. Their trapezoidal design and high power transmission capacity make them essential in various production line sections. They transfer drive power from motors to heavy machinery such as presses, kilns, and ventilation systems, making them an ideal choice for the industry's harsh conditions due to their durability and efficiency. Features: Heat resistance, abrasion resistance, flexibility, high power transmission
Rubber Conveyor Belts
Rubber conveyor belts are among the most commonly used in the tile and ceramics industry due to their high resistance to abrasion, heat, and chemicals. They transport heavy raw materials like clay, silica, and minerals to kilns or presses. Features: Abrasion resistance, high temperature tolerance, flexibility
PVC Conveyor Belts
PVC belts are used in packaging and final tile transfer sections due to their lightweight nature, moisture resistance, and ease of cleaning. They are ideal for lines handling products sensitive to scratching. Features: Smooth and scratch-resistant surface, chemical resistance, variety in thickness and texture
