The difference in application between mesh belt conveyor and chain plate conveyor
Mesh belt conveyors are commonly used for multi-layer transportation and drying of materials. Stainless steel mesh belts are selected as carriers and are suitable for drying, dehumidification, freezing, heat treatment, and other processes in various food operation occupations; The mesh belt in the mesh belt conveyor is made of stainless steel and has the characteristics of high temperature resistance and easy cleaning. Mesh belt conveyors are widely used for the transportation of beverage bottles, aluminum cans, drugs, cosmetics, food, and other professions. By selecting different mesh belts, they can be made into specialized equipment for bottle storage stations, elevators, sterilizers, vegetable cleaning machines, bottle coolers, and meat food transportation. The mesh belt is subject to tension constraints, and the longest single line length usually does not exceed 20 meters. There are various construction methods such as horizontal straight line transportation, upward climbing transportation, and turning transportation. The conveyor belt can also be equipped with accessories such as upward baffles and side baffles to meet various technical requirements.

The chain plate conveyor uses a standard top plate chain as the bearing surface, powered by a motor reducer, and operates in a dedicated guide rail. Depending on the technical process, the top plate chain is divided into curved and straight types. The chain plate conveyor uses a series of Flat noodles fixed on the traction chain to transport materials in the horizontal or inclined direction. The single steel plate is articulated into a ring belt as the traction and bearing member of the conveyor. The bearing surface has a transverse spacer placed in the trough box to drive the ring belt to scrape the coal out by the spacer. It consists of driving organization, tensioning equipment, traction chain, Flat noodles, driving and reversing sprocket, rack, etc. It has been widely used in metallurgy, coal, chemical industry, power, machinery manufacturing, and other industrial sectors of the national economy.

The similarity between mesh belt conveyor and chain plate conveyor is that they are both mechanical devices for transporting materials, which can form a material transportation process from the initial feeding point to the final unloading point on a certain transport line, and have a wide range of applications.
Differences:
1. Chain plate conveyors are suitable for transporting materials with small volumes and regular shapes, while mesh belt conveyors are suitable for transporting materials with irregular shapes.
2. Chain plate conveyors use chain plates as conveyor belts, so they are mostly used for industrial transportation. Mesh belt conveyors use mesh belts as conveyor belts, so they are mostly used for food, drying, and cleaning occupations.
Both types of conveyors can be used in high temperature or acidic or alkaline environments, but mesh belt conveyors are more commonly used for drying and cleaning. The raw materials for making chain plates and mesh belts are the same, including both carbon steel and stainless steel, which are determined based on the specific application environment.
4. The mesh conveyor can operate at medium to high speeds when transporting materials, while the chain plate conveyor operates at ultra-low speeds.
5. The materials transported by mesh belt conveyors are usually lightweight materials with low noise and low cost during transportation, while chain plate conveyors are usually suitable for transporting large and heavy materials and have a longer service life than mesh belt conveyors.
