Belt Technologies Design Guide and Engineer’s Reference for Metal Belts

Our engineering experts have compiled the Belt Technologies Design Guide to help address your design considerations and questions about how PureSteel® metal belts can benefit your automated assembly line or manufacturing application.

The Design Guide offers design resources and other relevant information including:

  • The Benefits of Stainless Steel Belts for Your Application
    Stainless steel belts are often chosen for their durability, resistance to corrosion, smooth operation and more. Uncover the ways our PureSteel® products can improve your product throughput or quality.
  • Metal Belts vs Drive Tapes
    Metal belts are endless; drive tapes are open-ended. Learn more about the versatile applications of each.
  • Choosing the Right Pulley for Your Application
    Our pulley types range from the more basic friction drive pulley to timing pulleys. With an array of material types and other enhanced features, there is a solution to meet your needs.
  • Surface Treatments that Can Improve Your Material Handling
    Teflon®. Hard Coat Anodization. These are just two of our available surface treatment options. Learn more about coating, plating, laminating and bonding and how surface treatments can benefit material handling.
  • Design Considerations
    Learn about best practices and design considerations to implement in your facility.
  • Enhancing Belt Life
    More durable than fabric, rubber or PVC alternatives, PureSteel® stainless steel belts are long-lasting and a sound choice for even the most demanding production operations.
  • Metal Belt Materials (Appendix)

The information in the Belt Technologies Design Guide will help you understand the many benefits of metal belts can lend to your application and give you the knowledge you need to specify metal belts with confidence. Our team of engineers is always available if you have any additional questions.
