Difference between PE and PU conveyor belt

PE (polyethylene) conveyor belts and PU (polyurethane) conveyor belts differ significantly in a number of ways, including material, characteristics, application areas, and price. The following is a detailed analysis of the differences between these two types of conveyor belts:

Material Composition

1. PE conveyor belt:
   • Material: made of polyethylene (PE), which is a lightweight, flexible material.
   • Structure: usually with single-layer or multi-layer structure, which can be customized according to the demand.
2. PU conveyor belt:
   • Material: made of polyurethane (PU), which is a high performance synthetic rubber.
   • Structure: Usually with composite processing, PVC surface and industrial polyester fabric layer is added in the middle to increase the tensile strength of the conveyor belt.

Application Areas

1. PE conveyor belt:
   • Mainly used for light load and room temperature food transportation, such as fruit and vegetable packaging.
   • Suitable for food and soft material processing, tobacco, electronics, textile and other occasions with high hygiene requirements.
2. PU conveyor belt:
   • Widely used in food processing environments in various temperature ranges, from low temperature environments for frozen foods to high temperature environments for baked foods.
   • It is also suitable for machinery manufacturing, printing and packaging, paper processing, ceramics, marble, wood processing and many other fields.

In summary, PE conveyor belts and PU conveyor belts have significant differences in many aspects, such as materials, characteristics, application areas and prices. When choosing, comprehensive consideration should be made according to the specific application scenarios and needs to ensure the selection of the most suitable conveyor belt products.
