Directly driven conveying belt



Belt conveyor are very popular due to their low complexity and high flexibility. In the classical drive concept the power of the drive is transmitted via force contact between the belt and the role. Therefor the belt has to be under tension between the two roles. By this way of drive the length, the life or the transportation power of the conveyor belt is limited. By developing a direct drive the disadvantages of the classical drive will be avoided.
Therefor a belt with an internal copper layer, which is used as moving part of an induction engine, and the belonging engine stator was developed.
