A wooden belt conveyor system is a type of mechanical handling equipment that uses wooden slats or panels connected to a continuous loop to transport materials.
Unlike rubber or metal belts, these wooden components offer a more natural look and feel, often used where design aesthetics or environmental impact are important.
Main components include:
- Wooden belt/slats: Typically hardwood or treated wood
- Drive motor: Powers the belt’s movement
- Frame: Supports the belt; can be wood, metal, or a hybrid
- Rollers and pulleys: Guide and support belt movement
How It Works
The system operates by looping the wooden slats around a set of pulleys. As the motor turns the drive pulley, the belt moves forward, carrying items from one point to another.
These systems can be designed for horizontal or inclined movement depending on the application.
Why Choose a Wooden Belt Conveyor System?
Benefits
- Eco-Friendly: Made from renewable materials and often more sustainable than plastic or rubber belts.
