Technical
Intralox belts can be used in medium to severe abrasive applications, however, special product recommendations and conveyor design guidelines must be followed.
Intralox offers various materials suitable for operation in temperatures ranging from - 100 °F / -73 °C to 310 °F / 154 °C. Specific material should be chosen based on your operating temperature.
For more information on your specific application, contact your customer service representative.
Camshafting can be caused by a variety of factors including abrasion, high speeds or heavy load. Contact our Technical Support Group to determine the specific cause and to tailor a solution to your problem.
The belt strength is the maximum belt tension (per foot or meter of width) the belt can continuously run at.
For a standard catenary conveyor this would be: (2 * shaft center distance + sprocket circumference) + 5% for the catenaries.
The pitch is the distance from the center of one rod to the center of the next. For accuracy reasons, Intralox recommends measuring pitch by taking a measurement over at least 20 rows and dividing by the number of rows.
Our standard materials (PP, PE, POM, PA66) comply with the FDA regulations and EU Directives. A letter of assurance can be made available on demand.
To ensure optimal tracking of Intralox belts, we recommended locking the centermost sprocket on both drive and idle shaft.
In certain series we have sprockets with a pilotbore, these sprockets can be machined to a bigger bore size such as for a drum motor. Another option is to contact your drum motor supplier.
