Troughing Conveyor Belt

Troughing Conveyor Belt: The Essential Design for Efficient Bulk Transport

The Troughing Conveyor Belt is the fundamental and most widely used design in bulk material handling. Engineered to form a deep, seamless "U" shape over idler rollers, it securely contains and centers the load, maximizing capacity while preventing spillage. This versatile design is the reliable backbone of industries from mining and aggregates to agriculture and logistics.

Core Advantages & Design

Maximum Load Capacity & Stability: The troughed shape (typically 20°-45°) increases cross-sectional area, allowing higher volumes and stabilizing the material stream.

Reduced Spillage & Dust: Contained transport minimizes product loss and environmental contamination.

Versatile & Proven: Compatible with a vast range of belt types (EP, NN, Steel Cord, Rubber, PVC) and the global standard for troughed idler systems.

Optimized for Long Distances: The standard choice for cost-effective, high-volume horizontal and inclined transport over extensive distances.

Common Applications

Bulk mining and quarry materials (coal, ore, aggregates)

Grain and agricultural handling

Sand, gravel, and construction materials

General bulk logistics in ports and terminals
