Slat Belt Conveyor

A slatted belt conveyor is a conveyance technology that uses a chain-driven slatted ring to move products from one end to the other. The chain is driven by a motor, making it circulate like a belt conveyor. The main difference is that, instead of a plastic belt, this conveyor belt type uses strips connected to a chain that are not different from vehicle pedals. The result is a conveyor that provides a rigid, flat conveyor for each item, which is ideal for many types of products that cannot be used with rollers or belts due to their irregular shape. These slats are usually made of engineering plastic or metal, which allows the slat conveyors to work in hazardous, heavy, and high-temperature environments. Another major advantage is that the slats can be built in a unique shape.

The slat conveyor belongs to the heavy product SS material. Typical slat conveyors operate only in straight lines, but smaller, more flexible slat chains have been designed to bend to suit specific sites and play an important role in food and bottling and can manufacturing industries.
