Plastic Belt Conveyors Mat Top
Plastic Belt Conveyors Mat Top
Modular plastic belt systems, a.k.a. mat-top or flat-top, are targeted to your specific process needs. We choose the right components, from steel to rubber grippers, from chains and sprockets, to controls and configuration. For example, a three-tier belt system was the right modular solution for a snack food drying process.
Multi-Conveyor’s team works directly with you to ensure the belting we specify meets or exceeds your project requirements. Stainless steel construction with servo drive packaging for high speed indexing is one of our specialties. You can also count on control verification in your plant to fine tune our indexing systems.
Often we incorporate very robust design for stability with particular product flow situations such as paper rolls. Horizontal pivoting parts conveying with multiple lane configurations met another recent market requirements.

- Side transfer with flush mounted hardware and bearings
Trough Style Systems
The image to the right shows a trough style system from beneath to get an idea of how the plastic belting moves through the "trough" shaped system. A trough design consists of the main spine of the conveyor with smaller diameter side spindle shaped belt supports that can be made of rollers or stationary supports. Based on the frame, the belt naturally forms the trough ("U" shape) to help control the product itself.
Zero Tangent
New to our Plastic Belt Conveying solutions, curved belt options built with the new Zero Tangent™ Radius Belt Curve technology (by Intralox®) are now offered. Modular belt construction is featured for improved reliability and performance, able to handle tight transfers and various radius curves.
