Guide ropes
Guide ropes are crucial conveyor belt components for stabilizing conveyor belts, especially when they are irregularly loaded or subjected to uneven loads. Guide ropes ensure that the belt runs stably and straight, significantly improving the performance and reliability of your conveyor system.
What are guide ropes?
Guide ropes are used to effectively guide conveyor belts and can be placed on both the underside and the loading side of the belt. On the underside, they help keep the belt aligned, while on the loading side, they can also serve as a spill edge, preventing product loss during transport. Our range includes guide ropes in various shapes and sizes, such as V-shaped and square profiles, each suitable for specific applications and drum diameters.
Our guide ropes are available in various materials, including PVC, PU, and rubber. The PVC and PU variants are also available in notched versions, ideal for applications requiring additional flexibility. Furthermore, the white and blue guide ropes are FDA-approved and suitable for the food industry, while the green and black versions deliver top performance in the non-food sector.
Custom solutions for guide ropes
Every conveyor belt faces unique challenges, and at LBS, we understand that customization is key. The guide ropes are carefully mounted on the conveyor belt, often through hot vulcanization. This method guarantees a high-quality solution for any guiding or spill issues, ensuring a reliable and durable installation. Whether you are looking for a specific size or a material that fits your work environment, we offer a suitable solution.
