This type of Low Rolling Resistance Conveyor Belt adopts special design and materials, which significantly reduces its rolling resistance. For example, in terms of materials, the covering rubber may have added special low friction coefficient additives or used new rubber formulations with self-lubricating properties. Structurally, the design of the belt core is also more reasonable, which can reduce the deformation when the Low Rolling Resistance Belt comes into contact with the rollers, thereby effectively reducing rolling resistance. In actual operation, the power required to drive this type of conveyor belt is relatively small, which can save energy and generally reduce energy consumption by 15% -30%.
2、Ordinary conveyor belt:
Ordinary Low Rolling Belt do not have special optimization for rolling resistance. The covering rubber is usually a conventional rubber material with a relatively high coefficient of friction. During operation, the friction between the conveyor belt and the rollers is high, and the rolling resistance is also high, which leads to the need to consume more energy to drive the conveyor belt.
3、In terms of physical performance
Flexibility and bending radius:
Low rolling resistance conveyor belt: It has excellent flexibility and can run under small bending radii. This is because the choice of core material and structure allows the conveyor belt to bend flexibly, such as using high-performance polyester fibers or aramid fibers as the core, which have high strength and good flexibility. This feature allows it to easily bypass obstacles such as equipment and building corners in complex conveyor line layouts.
Ordinary conveyor belt: The flexibility is relatively poor, and when running under a small bending radius, there may be excessive deformation of the conveyor belt, damage to the belt core, and other situations. Especially for some traditional conveyor belts with harder materials as the core, they may not be able to adapt to conveyor paths that require small radius bending, limiting their application in complex environments.
