What is the difference between PU conveyor belt and PVC conveyor belt
Apr 10, 2023
1. The materials used and the raw materials conveyed are different
The material of pu conveyor belt is mainly polyurethane. Due to its scientific and reasonable formula, this material has a higher safety level and can directly contact with food, so it is also called food conveyor belt. It is not only used in industry , and can also be widely used in the food industry. The main components of PVC conveyor belts are polyvinyl chloride glue and polychloride fiber cloth. Since the rubber surface is made of polyvinyl chloride, it cannot directly contact food. Therefore, for those food processing industries, when purchasing food convey When you arrive, you must distinguish whether it is a PV conveyor belt or a PU conveyor belt.
2. Surface hardness and product performance are different
If you touch the conveyor belt with your hands, in comparison, the surface hardness of the PU conveyor belt is harder, while the surface hardness of the PVC conveyor belt is softer. And in terms of elasticity, the PVC conveyor belt rebounds slowly after being folded in half, while the PU conveyor belt rebounds faster. Generally speaking, the imported transparent pu conveyor belt has outstanding characteristics such as cold resistance, corrosion resistance, oil resistance and cutting resistance, and is light and thin, flexible and easy to clean. Relatively speaking, the skid resistance and air permeability of PVC conveyor belts will be inferior.
