ContiTech steel cable conveyor belt
The rough working conditions in opencast mining place high demands on steel cord conveyor belts. Impact breaks occur on the conveyor belts time and again, causing damage to the steel cords in the belts. So-called transverse reinforcements offer more safety and stability. The Stahlcord? Barrier is a steel cord conveyor belt with a rubber surface on the top cover, in which thin steel cords run closely together at right angles to the direction of travel of the conveyor belt. They protect the steel cords in the belt carcass and prevent impact breaks and longitudinal slitting in the conveyor belt.
