In many industrial processes, the transport of materials on inclines poses specific technical challenges: ensuring the stability of the load, avoiding shifting during travel and ensuring a reliable grip under varying conditions. When it comes to cylindrical parts, such as tubes, these demands are intensified, as their geometry complicates support and clamping on the conveyor surface.
In this type of application, belts with a custom design become an effective solution, as they allow the incorporation of elements adapted to the transported product. A clear example is the development of a belt equipped with custom cleats under the Ydins brand, specifically designed for the upward transport of tubes, significantly improving the grip and safety of the system.
Specific adaptation to the customer's process
To precisely solve the problem posed, custom-made cleats were designed to maintain the position of the tubes during ascent, preventing slippage and ensuring the stability of the load.
The design includes a curved back support, specifically designed to conform to the shape of the tube and withstand its weight without warping or breaking. This solution improves the contact between the tube and the belt, providing a more effective hold and increasing the reliability of the system.
Improved safety and productivity
Thanks to this adaptation, it has been possible to optimize the performance of the transport system, reducing incidents due to unwanted journeys and improving operational safety. The result is increased productivity by minimizing downtime and reducing component wear.
Design flexibility as a fundamental principle
This development reflects the key principle of the Ydins brand: flexibility in design to achieve seamless integration into every application. In contrast to standardised solutions, Ydins offers belts specifically configured according to the demands of the working environment, making it possible to respond effectively to specific technical challenges.
The customization of each component, such as cleats, not only improves functionality, but directly contributes to the efficiency and reliability of the industrial process. Thus, Ydins is positioned as a benchmark brand in the design of custom-made solutions for conveyor belting.
