What is a PVC conveyor belt?
PVC conveyor belts are standard belt conveyors used for basic applications in product handling. PVC has evolved into a widely produced plastic, known for its durability and ease of use. PVC conveyor belts are best suited for material handling, most commonly used in manufacturing plants, especially food, pharmaceutical and electronic component manufacturing areas

Characteristics of PVC plastic belts:
- PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) has a synthetic fiber fabric core, covered with PVC plastic. The synthetic fiber cores used in this belt are polyester, nylon, Velen, carbon fiber and the like.
- PVC is used as an effective conveyor belt for conveying light or medium weight. PVC belts are usually made of 1 to 3 layers of fabric, each layer of fabric has a thickness of 0.5 ~ 0.8 mm.
- One of the main advantages of PVC conveyor belts is a wide range of surface performance of the conveyor belt. In recent years, it has been widely used in the industry because of its high strength, low elongation and good temperature resistance.
- Anti-static PVC belts provide good chemical resistance, and are resistant to hot water and steam. Based on specific needs and conveyor manufacturers, flame retardant models are also available.
- With limited abrasion resistance and limited resistance to solvents, oils and greases, PVC belts are best suited for fruit and vegetable processing and simpler operations with limited special requirements.
Structure of PVC conveyor belt:
- PVC conveyor belt has a sturdy structure, good load-bearing capacity, suitable for light and medium loads
- Conveyor belt made of PVC plastic, available in blue, gray, white
- Conveyor frame made of aluminum profile, powder coated steel, stainless steel
- Conveyor rollers and rollers made of stainless steel
- Gear motor, speed control controller, inverter, sensor, timer, sensor, PLC, ...
- Traction roller set (active power transmission roller) made of galvanized steel or aluminum Ø50, Ø60, Ø76, Ø89, Ø102 ...
- Chain or belt drive.
There are also some other parts depending on the application of the conveyor. All parts are designed reasonably, scientifically, and optimally to bring high efficiency.
Advantages of using PVC conveyor belts:
Why are PVC conveyor belts chosen for such widespread use? It is all due to the outstanding advantages of the type. These are:
- Safety:
The PVC material used in the production of conveyor belts is non-toxic and is also declared as a safe and healthy material by the authorities, making our PVC conveyor belts safe for industrial as well as food applications.
- Hygiene:
The open surface of PVC conveyor belts prevents the accumulation of bacteria, is easy to clean and thus ensures a high level of hygiene.
- Cost Effective:
The low cost of PVC material makes it suitable for all types of manufacturing facilities, large and small.
- Versatile:
The offered PVC conveyor belts are capable of handling light, medium and heavy loads efficiently, and thus, one can convey any type of material with ease.
- Light weight:
PVC conveyor belts are lighter than metal conveyor belts, due to the lightweight aspect of the PVC material and are therefore easy to handle and install.
- Fire resistance:
Despite being a rubber material, the high chlorine content in PVC prevents ignition and ensures fire safety, which makes our PVC conveyor belts also fire resistant.
- Durability:
The properties of PVC material include resistance to chemicals, corrosion, abrasion, high temperatures, which show remarkable resistance to PVC conveyor belts, even in the harshest conditions and thus ensure a longer service life.
Increase productivity in your production plan, reduce accidents and product breakage or damage, save energy. All these benefits can be realized by installing or modernizing a conveyor system in your own factory. For those who do not know the specifications for their food processing, PVC conveyor belts are a reliable choice and in most cases, PVC conveyor belts are a cost-effective option.
Disadvantages of using PU conveyor belts
In addition to the advantages, PVC belt conveyors also have some of the following limitations. These are:
- The ability to move the system is less flexible, only suitable for light industrial production fields, cannot transport large, heavy, round, cylindrical goods
- This type of conveyor belt is not suitable for granular, crumbly products because they can fall during transportation
Applications of PVC plastic conveyor belts
With superior features, conveyor belts are widely used in industrial manufacturing. Based on the basic characteristics of PVC plastic conveyor belts, choose to assemble the conveyor belt to suit the intended use. Some applications of PVC conveyor belts:
- In the manufacturing industry, assembling components, electronic equipment, assembling cars, motorbikes, electric bicycles, in bran factories, loading goods, wood processing factories...
- In the food, medical, pharmaceutical, garment, footwear manufacturing industries...
- Used to transport goods, package products...
- PVC conveyor belts are also applied in many other manufacturing industries to bring economic efficiency in production.
