Most conveyor belt breaks aren’t caused by poor belt quality but by operating conditions and maintenance issues. Sharp material impact, hard starts, jams, misalignment, and neglected splices or idlers accelerate wear. Prevention depends on proper protection, monitoring, and standardized operation.

Choosing the right conveyor belt impacts efficiency and cost. Steel cord belts suit long-distance, high-tension conveying, while nylon fabric belts offer flexibility, wear resistance, and easy maintenance for complex systems.

Heat Resistant Conveyor Belts enable safe, efficient material handling across heavy industries, including mining, steel, cement, power, and ports, with high durability, wear resistance, and stable performance.

This article explains the safety factor of steel cord conveyor belts, how it’s calculated, typical industry ranges, influencing factors, and why choosing the right safety factor ensures reliability, long service life, and lower operating risk in heavy-duty applications.

Conveyor belts in mining and ports need efficient cleaning to reduce carryback, downtime, and safety risks. Brush cleaners outperform traditional methods, extending belt life, cutting costs, and improving site safety.

PU belts excel in heavy-duty, oily, cold-chain, or low-temp applications, while PVC belts often offer better chemical resistance, humidity stability, ease of installation, and cost-effectiveness for light to medium loads in typical industrial environments.

Conveyor rollers, including gravity, powered, and MDR types, are key to system efficiency and durability. Choosing the right material, drive, and design—steel, plastic, rubber, or composite—ensures smooth, reliable, and low-maintenance operation across industries.

An excellent chevron conveyor belt delivers strong anti-slip performance on steep inclines, high wear resistance, and structural stability. With optimized patterns, durable rubber, and strong carcasses, it reduces spillage, downtime, and total conveying costs in bulk handling industries.

Anti-slip conveyor belts prevent rollback, spillage, dust, and downtime in chemical, mining, port, and bulk material lines. With higher incline capacity, better grip, and chemical-resistant rubber, they improve safety, efficiency, and overall conveying reliability.

Underground coal mines face serious risks from coal dust and methane gas, where sparks or airborne dust can cause fires and explosions. To address these hazards, specialized conveyor belts with dust‑free and explosion‑proof features are essential. Hengyi’s flame‑retardant mining belts are designed to reduce risks at the source, using three core protective layers: strong flame resistance that self‑extinguishes quickly, anti‑static properties to prevent sparking, and a compact structure that minimizes dust leakage. Some models also include sidewalls for better containment. These belts are widely used in main haulage roadways, mining faces, coal bunkers, and inclined conveying lines, providing enhanced safety and stability. When selecting a mining belt, it is important to choose certified products, match the belt type to site conditions (PVC for dry areas, PVG for wet conditions), and avoid low‑quality alternatives that may create hidden dangers. Hengyi’s tested and reliable belts help mines maintain safer, more efficient operations while protecting workers and reducing potential losses.
