IKM has a range of belts to address the problems faced due to high impact, high tear in certain conveying applications. Typically, belts which are used for handling rocks in primary crushers suffer from continuous loading resulting in carcass fatigue and shortened belt life. Conventional multi-ply EP/NN belts are not able to withstand such abuse. Our R&D team has developed the IKM belts consisting of a specially designed fabric having high tenacity, straight warp threads and dense weft yarn construction. These belts are made in single- or two-ply construction and in strength rating from 315 KN/ M to 1000 KN/ M per single ply.
The unique construction of the belt and the special cushion and cover rubber ensure higher longitudinal flexibility of the belt yet guaranteeing a very low elongation at working load when compared to normal EP/NN belts.
Benefits
• Endures most rigorous applications with extreme impact resistance.
• Low elongation at working load results in trouble free operation
• Highest Tear resistance up to 5 times greater than conventional multi-ply belts.
• Excellent Load support and trough ability.
• Very good longitudinal flexibility – works on smaller pulleys.
• Excellent suitability to mechanical splicing.
• Energy saving due to low weight to strength ratio.
Product Application
The IKM Belt is ideally suited for the following applications:
• High impact applications e.g., rocks in primary crushers.
• High fall height of material.
• High lump size up to 500 mm and higher.
• Long haul applications with low elongation.
• High speed unloading and feeder applications prone to presence of tramp material.
• Scrap recycling plants, log decks.
