Corrugated sidewall conveyor belts address major limitations of standard flat belts in bulk material handling. Traditional belts struggle with steep angles, space constraints, spillage, rollback, and dust, especially in mining, ports, cement, and metallurgy. Sidewall belts use a reinforced base, tall flexible sidewalls, and optional cross cleats to create enclosed “pockets,” enabling inclines from 30° to 90° and even vertical lifting. This design drastically reduces material loss, dust emissions, and space requirements while boosting throughput by 20–50% and cutting installation and operational costs. Hengyi’s sidewall belts feature high‑quality polyester cores for durability, minimizing downtime and improving overall conveying efficiency in harsh industrial environments.

Heat resistant conveyor belts are essential in industries such as cement, steel, metallurgy, and coking, where materials like clinker, sintered ore, and hot coke often reach 300–800℃. Ordinary belts quickly age, crack, or fail under these conditions, leading to production downtime, material spillage, and safety risks. Heat resistant belts are specifically engineered to withstand high temperatures, ensuring continuous operation, reducing maintenance costs, and improving workplace safety. High-temperature environments pose several challenges, including rapid rubber aging, carcass deformation, and potential fire hazards. Professional heat resistant belts mitigate these risks through specialized materials and structures. Hengyi’s belts cover the full range of heat resistance grades (T1–T4), using materials such as SBR and EPDM, with maximum operating temperatures from 150℃ up to 400℃ for short-term use. The belts feature multi-layered cores, strong adhesion, and resistance to heat, chemicals, and wear, offering a service life 2–4 times longer than standard belts. These belts are widely used in cement clinker transport, steel and metallurgy processes, coking operations, and other high-temperature material handling applications. Hengyi provides customized solutions and has supplied products to large enterprises domestically and internationally, helping customers achieve safer and more efficient production.

Steel cord conveyor belts have become essential in bulk material handling, especially for long‑distance or high‑load applications where traditional fabric belts struggle. Hengyi’s steel cord belts address two major industry issues: excessive elongation and impact damage. Their steel cord carcass minimizes stretch, making them suitable for distances from 500 meters up to 30 kilometers. The reinforced cushioning layers absorb impact from large, sharp materials, protecting the belt from internal harm. These belts are also ideal for vertical lifting systems, such as bucket elevators, where high tension and stability are critical. Common grades range from ST630 for short‑distance mining to ST5400 for deep mining and vertical lift, with customizable widths and specialized rubber compounds available. Steel cord belts are particularly beneficial when fabric belts show persistent elongation, suffer frequent tears, or require costly maintenance. With a lifespan 3–5 times longer than conventional belts, they reduce downtime and operating expenses. If your system faces stretch, damage, or high upkeep costs, upgrading to a steel cord belt is often the most economical long‑term solution. Hengyi can recommend specifications based on your conveying distance, material, and throughput.

Selecting the right conveyor belt for mining is crucial for productivity, safety, and cost control. Many operational issues stem from mismatched belt specifications rather than poor quality. Key considerations include understanding the material being conveyed—such as coal, ore, or crushed stone—and its characteristics, including particle size and impact. Environmental factors like underground or open-pit settings, moisture, dust, and temperature also influence belt performance. Matching the belt structure to the conveyor system is essential. This involves choosing between steel cord or fabric carcasses, selecting the appropriate tensile strength based on distance and lift, and determining cover thickness for abrasion and impact resistance. Special properties like fire resistance (required underground), abrasion resistance, and heat resistance should also be evaluated. Finally, conveyor layout, installation quality, splicing, and regular maintenance significantly affect belt life. Hengyi provides abrasion-resistant and fire-resistant mining belts compliant with international standards, ensuring reliable performance across diverse mining applications.
