Metal Timing Belts and Metal Drive Tape for Robotics and Automation

Typically found in the robotics and automation industries, metal timing belts and metal
drive tapes are manufactured with precise perforations that can be produced mechanically
or via non-impact methods. Used for carriage positioning, timing, vacuum operation, and
indexing, our perforated metal belts, metal timing belts, and metal drive tape are made to
exact specifications so that your conveyor or automated production system operates
reliably and predictably. We are able to produce custom belts with perforations of
varying size, shape, and frequency for your robotic or automated operations.

Belt Technologies Metrak V-Guide maximizes belt life with a forced tracking for metal
conveyor belt systems.

Metal Conveyor Capabilities and Coatings for Special Applications Belt

Belt Technologies, Inc. provides surface treatments to alter the natural surface properties of the
metal belt, tape, or pulley. Treatment options include coating, plating, and bonding. We are able
to fulfill any coating request, from basic needs such as silicone and teflon, to more specific
options such as gold plating and powdered diamond bonding. Surface thickness can be as little as
.0005 and can be uniform or provide pockets for transporting small components.

Metal Vacuum Conveyor Belts for Delicate Automation Applications

Vacuum belts are metal belts with a precise pattern of perforations that allow air to be pulled
through the belt to hold products and materials securely in place as the belt moves. They are
ideal for handling delicate objects such as wafers and small robotic components. The use of a
vacuum allows items to stay in place on the belt without applying any physical pressure that may
damage delicate components. It can also be recalibrated for objects of varying size without
replacing any of the fixtures and they are capable of precise positioning control.
 Metric Power-Wedge
Metric Power-Wedge V-belts are manufactured for high performance. They are highly flexible, resist stretch, heat,
oils, chemicals and ozone, and dissipate electrostatic charges.

Metric Power-Wedge V-belts are marked with the letters (SPZX, SPAX, SPBX, SPCX) which identify the section
and a series of numbers which represents the pitch length in mm. The metric wedge belt is the standard in the
metric system.
