Cleated Belt Conveyor
A cleated belt conveyor is a type of conveyor system that uses a cleated or ribbed belt to transport materials at an inclined angle or on an incline. The cleats or ribs on the belt help prevent the material from sliding backward or falling off the conveyor, making it suitable for conveying bulk materials that require steep inclines or vertical lifting. Here’s an overview of the components and operation of a cleated belt conveyor:
Cleated belt conveyors are commonly used in industries such as agriculture, mining, construction, recycling, and food processing. They are ideal for transporting bulk materials such as grains, seeds, aggregates, wood chips, municipal solid waste, and packaged goods. Cleated belt conveyors are particularly useful for conveying materials up steep inclines or on steep angles where gravity alone would not be sufficient to move the material.
