Conveyor belts with a smooth carrying surface are useful for conveying of packed and unpacked material up to the angle of inclination 22° as an upper limit.
CHEVRON belts are the right belts to meet your requirements when higher angles of inclination are required.
For this purpose, SAVA has developed high-performance and high-quality Chevron and High-Chevron conveyor belts. Their advantages are long service life and flexibility due to homogeneous Chevron profiles which are vulcanised together with a base belt.
Areas of application:
- quarries, sandpits
- cement works, lime works
- farming: conveying of beets, grains, potatoes, fertilizers, wooden chips
- coal and coke transport
- sugar refineries
- salt mines
- mobile crushers and screens

|
Selection of a type and height of profiles depends on the material to be conveyed and the angle of inclination:
| Type of material |

The values given are just an orientation and depend on the type of goods conveyed, loading conditions and the conveyor belt speed.
The maximum inclination of a smooth conveyor belt reaches from 15° to 22° in dependence of the type of material.
Steep angle conveyor belts with a profiled surface reach an inclination of 30° to over 40°.
In unfavorable loading conditions only the profiled surface may be loaded.
For the rest, the capacity is calculated in the same way as for smooth surface conveyor belts.
