Belt Types

Eye link mesh conveyor belts are mainly available in five types, each with its own specific advantages:


ELCB01 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt without spacers	ELCB02 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt with welded wire


ELCB03 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt with rings as spacers	ELCB04 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt with springs as spacers	ELCB05 - Eye link Conveyor Belt with bushings or washers

ELCB01 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt without spacers:

Eye Link Conveyor Belts without spacers are standard conveyor belts with the simplest structure based on a straight modular form without any spacers and springs, which makes it excellent flow-through in applications that do not require cross support. Eye Link Conveyor Belt has flat conveying surface and open mesh structure, which make it ease of cleaning, also easy to repair at the lowest cost.

ELCB02 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt with welded wire:

Eye link belt has steel wires which was welded under the belt, this not only enhances the stability of the belt, but also prevents bacteria from being left behind due to gaps in the belt. Eye link Conveyor Belt with welded wire is very suitable for applications with high hygiene requirements, such as the processing of various meats and the cleaning and drying of vegetables and fruits.

ELCB03 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt with rings as spacers:

The conveyor belt uses rings as spacers to expand the belt gap and increase more air flow at the bottom of the conveyed product, thereby improving the working efficiency of the conveyor belt. This type of conveyor belt is commonly used for large product conveying, vegetable blanching, container pasteurization, and food cooking, baking, and cooling.

ELCB04 - Eye Link Conveyor Belt with springs as spacers:

Adding springs between eye-link wires, the springs make the eye-link wires able to move on the cross rods, which make the belt form a more dimensionally stable structure. The addition of springs increases the belt open area, which is more conducive to the cleaning and disinfection of the conveyor belt. This belt usually used for product transportation, vegetable blanching, and pasteurization of cans, bottles, and cans.

ELCB05 - Eye link Conveyor Belt with bushings or washers:

Eye link belt uses bushings or washers between the wires to increase the belt gap, create an opening between the eyelinks. By increasing the belt gap, more air will circulate around the bottom of the product. In addition, the belts become heavier and more rigid after bushings or washers are added.

Edge Types

There are four edge types of the Eye link wire mesh belting as following:


ELBE01 - Eyelink Belt with Welded edge	ELBE02 - Eyelink Belt with Reinforcing Plates
---------Eye link belt with welded edge is the simplest eyelink belt edge, through welding metal plates to cross rod at the edge of the wire ring conveyor belt, to form a complete conveyor belt .	Reinforcing plates are common edge, through adding reinforcing plates mounted to the conveyor belt edge before the connecting rod is welded to further enhance the width and strength of this belt.


ELBE03 - Eyelink Belt with Chain Edge	ELBE04 - Eyelink Belt with side Guards
Chain edges on Eye link belts as an alternative method for driving the belt for enhanced tracking and reliability, make the chain edge conveyor belt much stronger than reinforcing plate edge.	Eye Link belts with side guards can efficientlly protect conveying products from falling off the side of the belt. As your request, guard plates can also be mounted across the belt for food separation.
