8 Basic Types of Conveyor Belts and Their Applications . 1. Roller Bed Conveyor Belts. Image Source: New London Engineering. As the name suggests, the surface of this type of conveyor belt is made up of rollers that are selected to match production requirements, such as the weight or required speed of the products that will move along the belt. ...

Conveyor load variation is also a braking consideration. One or more sections of the belt can be fully loaded, partially loaded or empty. When a belt is completely full, the braking torque requirement is high, but when partially loaded or empty, it is much lower. Consequently, if the same braking torque is applied, it will bring
