Belt Conveyor
A simple and efficient pulleyed design to keep goods stable on a moving belt.
Belt Conveyor
Belt conveyors provide a versatile means of handling a wide variety of products and are one of the simplest and most common conveyors. Often used in both manufacturing and distribution facilities, belts keep the position of the items stable while being conveyed. Belt conveyors consist of two or more pulleys with a closed-loop belt that rotates about them, thereby moving products efficiently.
Selecting the Right Conveyor
- The standard belt conveyor consists of a closed-loop belt that rotates about two or more pulleys, thereby moving products efficiently at a consistent speed and while maintaining even material spacing.
- Whether you need the standard model, a belt-over roller, or bucket, Power Pack is committed to providing you with a belt conveyor that is an economical and simple method of moving your products from one point to another.
Common Applications
- The belt conveyor is typically used in manufacturing and distribution facilities where the belt keeps the position of the transported items stable in order to safely move product for a long distance.
- The simplicity of the belt allows for a great variety of product sizes, shapes, and weights to be transported with a single drive.
- This conveyor type also has the versatility to move products through various elevations, with specific models being designed to adequately handle the height and weight requirements.
Benefits of Using Conveyors
- The belt conveyor has many benefits, including being an economical and versatile method of transporting material while consistently maintaining proper control over a great variety of product types, weights, and sizes.
- When using a Power Pack conveyor, the amount of time and effort needed to load, move, and unload products from one place to another is greatly reduced, providing your industry with an overall increase in efficiency and freeing up your labor force to focus on more critical tasks.
- Employing the use of a Power-Pack conveyor in your facility ensures that the flow of materials moves quickly and efficiently, helping your scheduled output remain consistent to benefit your entire operation.

In addition to manufacturing a standard belt conveyor, Power Pack has seven specific subtypes as listed below in order to fully meet your precise needs:
Belt-Driven Live Roller
The BDLR is a very versatile type because it is capable of accumulating, diverting, merging, and transporting items of various shapes, sizes, and weights. Ordinarily used in applications for warehousing, distribution, and order fulfillment, our engineers are ready to construct the model that works best for you.
Belt-Over Roller
This conveyor is another very versatile model that is specifically efficient at moving heavier loads over long distances. Typically used within industries that require the use of assembly lines and thorough product control, this conveyor can be utilized as a single horizontal model or be incorporated into a larger system to meet the needs of your commercial setting.
Bucket
The bucket conveyor is designed with scoop bucket cleats attached to a chain or fabric belt for handling bulk materials. This conveyor type performs best when used for applications to move dry, light, or powdery material such as iron ore pellets, sand, fly ash, and small grain materials, particularly within the agricultural and forging industries.
Corrugated Belt
This type is fashioned with a fabric belt that is corrugated, or grooved, along both edges in order to form a pocket that fully contains the transported materials. Typically used in applications to handle bulk items, small parts, and chemicals, the corrugated belt design successfully prevents your valuable product from falling off of the conveyor.
Floor-to-Floor
Power Pack manufactures a floor-to-floor belt conveyor for industries who need to transport products between varying elevations within a building. Particularly optimal for an incline up to 30 degrees, floor-to-floor conveyors are applicable for commercial settings including the handling of parts and assembly lines.
Horizontal Belt
The horizontal belt conveyor is a standard model that transports a variety of items on a flat and continuous plane. Typically used within industrial settings to transport goods through a production area, it is highly versatile and an ideal choice due to its easy installation, little maintenance, and smooth-running operation.
Magnetic
The magnetic belt conveyor has a simple and straightforward design that operates through the use of strategically-placed electromagnets. This conveyor is especially ideal when moving metal items within the recycling, stampings, scrap industries.
Troughing Idler
This conveyor has an angled belt design operating on top of idling rollers in order to provide a trough for the belt to carry bulk materials. The troughing idler is best suited for transporting abrasive materials in loose or bulk form for a variety of packing, construction, and mining applications.
