Belt molding press with one-piece molded sidewall belting on the Cambelt manufacturing floor

Engineered as one piece.
Not assembled from parts.

Nothing glued on. Nothing to fall off.

Multi-piece vs one-piece

The difference is the construction.

Most sidewall belts are assembled from separate components. Cambelt calendars and extrudes the belt, sidewalls, and cleats as one piece, then vulcanizes the entire belt as a single unit.

Cambelt is guaranteed not to delaminate.

Does your belt have a guarantee?

Comparison of competitors' multi-piece sidewall belt construction against Cambelt's one-piece molded belt construction
Multi-piece construction

Components are bonded together, creating multiple bond lines, more wear points, and a higher risk of delamination in demanding applications.

Cambelt one-piece construction

No glued joints or separate components. Stronger construction, greater durability, and proven performance in high-incline and abrasive applications worldwide.

The literal difference

One mold.
One belt.
Zero seams.

Every Cambelt belt starts as a one-piece molded cleated and sidewall conveyor belt. The cleats and sidewalls are molded directly into the belt as a single continuous piece of rubber, not glued on afterward.

That construction removes the glued interfaces that can delaminate, supporting longer runs between failures in demanding environments.

One-piece molded cleats and sidewalls formed directly into the belt

Molded cleats and sidewalls. One continuous piece of rubber.

The incline is the test

Steeper inclines.
Shorter conveyors.

A conventional flat or chevron belt can only climb so steeply before material rolls back. Cambelt's molded nubs, cleats, and sidewalls hold the load through the climb, so the same lift happens in a fraction of the conveyor length, with fewer transfer points and a smaller footprint.

Belt science

Does your belt have the right molecules?

Most operations have never been asked. It's the question that decides how long the belt — and the system around it — stays in service.

The right compound

Rubber chemistry matched to your material, not to what's on the shelf.

Cured as one piece

Cleats and sidewalls molded in. Nothing glued on, nothing to delaminate.

Cover gauge to the duty

Wear surface specified to impact, abrasion, and tons per hour.

Bearing and pulley life

Tension, lagging, and geometry designed so the whole system lasts, not just the belt.

We design for
Mean time between failure

Longer belt life.

We design for
Mean time between service

Longer intervals between scheduled maintenance.

We design for
Throughput per shift

More tons moved, lower cost per ton.

Belt science

Not a catalog part.
A specified one.

Compounds and fabrics are selected for the material and the environment. Cleats, nubs, sidewalls, and tensions are specified for the duty.

Cambelt maintains a library of tens of thousands of belt specifications and matches one to the customer's material, operating environment, and performance requirements.

Tens of thousands of specifications. One of them is yours.

Every ton matters. Our belts are engineered, not assembled, pressed in one piece so there's nothing to delaminate, nothing to fall off. A better belt isn't a feature list. It's the whole difference.

A better belt is the cause. Here's the effect.
