PVC and PU conveyor belts are common industrial conveyor belts, each with its own characteristics and applications. This article will explore the differences and characteristics of these two types of conveyor belts.
First, PVC conveyor belts are made of polyvinyl chloride material, appearing as a relatively hard plastic material with high wear resistance and strength. PVC conveyor belts are suitable for conveying and handling medium-sized items, such as boxes, wood, and steel plates. In addition, PVC conveyor belts are relatively easy to clean and maintain. However, PVC conveyor belts have a relatively short lifespan and are susceptible to chemicals and sunlight.
In contrast, PU conveyor belts are made of polyurethane material and have a soft and elastic appearance. PU conveyor belts are suitable for conveying and transporting lightweight items such as food, paper, and electronic products. In addition, PU conveyor belts have a longer lifespan, can withstand higher tension and impact forces, and are not easily damaged by chemicals and sunlight. However, PU conveyor belts are relatively expensive and cannot be used in high-temperature environments.
In short, PVC and PU conveyor belts each have their own advantages and disadvantages. Choosing the right conveyor belt for different needs is very important. It should be noted that the use of any type of conveyor belt should comply with the relevant safety regulations and operating procedures to ensure transportation safety and production efficiency.

What are the maintenance methods for flame-retardant conveyor belts?
Regularly conduct visual inspections of the entire length of the conveyor belt. Check for signs of wear, such as thinning, cracks, cuts, or abrasion of the conveyor belt surface. Pay particular attention to areas where the conveyor belt contacts rollers, pulleys, and loading/unloading points. Also check for any signs of damage to the fire-resistant layer, such as peeling or delamination.
