Abstract
The analysis of suitable perforation methods for polymer composites belts with regard to modern material trends in manufacturing the conveyor and timing belts for the vacuum transport was presented. Authors also discussed problems, that arise during belt perforation and specified the research area, which will help to develop the production process of perforated belts.
Highlights
Vacuum belt conveyors are often used to transport lightweight elements, which due to their low weight cannot be transferred by means of friction, and for transporting sheets [1]
The authors analyzed available methods of perforation, taking into account contemporary trends in the development of materials used for the production of composite belts, and pointed to the problems associated with the perforation of belts and belt conveyors
Analysis of the perforation process, taking into account contemporary trends in the development of materials used for the production of conveyor belts and tapes, clearly indicates the need for the development of punching composites as a method of precise mechanical perforation of vacuum conveyor belts
Summary
The analysis of suitable perforation methods for polymer composites belts with regard to modern material trends in manufacturing the conveyor and timing belts for the vacuum transport was presented. Vacuum belt conveyors are often used to transport lightweight elements, which due to their low weight cannot be transferred by means of friction (e.g. paper, foil or cardboard), and for transporting sheets [1]. They are widely used, among others, in the paper, food and chemical industries, as well as in printing machines and general handling equipment. The authors analyzed available methods of perforation, taking into account contemporary trends in the development of materials used for the production of composite belts, and pointed to the problems associated with the perforation of belts and belt conveyors
