Perforated conveyor belt

Belt Technologies produces PureSteel® metal drive tapes from the same high-quality stainless steel used in its endless metal belts. Unlike metal conveyor belts, drive tapes are not endless; they are open-ended with anchor attachments at each end. They are frequently used in design applications where accurate and reliable motion profiles are required, such as XY plotting assemblies for 3D printers and robotic arms and equipment. Stainless Steel Drive Tapes Provide Accurate Motion Control PureSteel® stainless steel drive tapes exhibit a variety of unique properties that make them ideal for applications where clean, precise movement is required. They: • Are virtually non-stretchable • Exhibit a high resistance to extreme temperatures • Are vacuum compatible • Have a high strength-to-weight ratio • Yield accurate and repeatable results • Are easy to clean and maintain Stainless steel drive tapes are highly accurate; they almost completely eliminate chordal vibration, motion loss, and backlash that can often result in inaccurate positioning of robotic motion profiles. Because they neither require lubrication nor generate particulates, metal drive tapes are perfect for clean room environments and sensitive, automated robotic systems. Custom End Attachments and Perforations for Design Flexibility Any number of end attachments and perforations required by your design specifications are available. PureSteel® metal drive tapes can be fitted with specialized end tabs, locating pins, attachment anchors, and custom perforations to suit a wide variety of applications, including: • Carriage positioning • Robotic arms • 3D printers • LCD production
