Global conveyor belts market anticipated in positive CAGR growth during the predicted period (to 2021), as noted in the ‘Global Conveyor Belts Market Professional Survey Report 2016’ report.
Conveyor belts mostly cater to material handling units and are used in carrying bulk materials. By form, the conveyor belts comprise two or more pulleys and an endless loop rotates them. For forward action of belt and carry forward, both the pulleys are powered. The powered pulley is termed as drive pulley and non-powered pulley is termed as idle pulley. Belt conveyors are used in general material handling such as moving items and inventories inside a facility from a different class of conveyors from those that are used in transporting a large volume of resources and agricultural materials.
Commercially, the conveyor belting system can be bifurcated into two systems general material handling and bulk material handling. Both the entities are used with common differences such as general material handling conveyor belts are used in transporting goods mainly in production facilities and the latter is used in outdoor locations to transport agricultural and industrial materials. Overall, with the growing significance of conveyor belts, the market growth witness positive traction in near future.
