Optimizing Your Package Handling Conveyor System
April 8, 2025Why Traditional Heat-Resistant Conveyor Belts Fail—and How We Are Helping Solve the Problem
May 28, 2026High-temperature conveyor applications demand more from conveyor belts than ever before. In industries such as cement, steel, foundry, and bulk material handling, belts are constantly exposed to elevated temperatures, abrasion, impact, and continuous operating stress. Unfortunately, many traditional heat-resistant conveyor belts struggle to perform reliably under these conditions, leading to tracking problems, cracking, excessive maintenance, and unplanned downtime.
To help customers solve these challenges, Motion Conveyance Solutions now offers the Bando Heat Carry™ lineup of high-temperature conveyor belts, including the HC-710, HC-770, and HC-1500. These belts are engineered specifically for demanding applications where conventional heat belts often fail.
What Makes This Lineup Special
What separates the Bando Heat Carry lineup from traditional heat-resistant conveyor belts is its ability to combine heat resistance, flexibility, and abrasion resistance into a single conveyor solution. Many standard heat belts can tolerate elevated temperatures, but as they age, they become stiff and difficult to manage. That stiffness creates tracking issues, edge wear, carryback, and material spillage throughout the conveyor system.
The Heat Carry lineup is designed differently. Using advanced EPR (ethylene propylene rubber) compounds and flexible carcass construction, these belts maintain flexibility even in high-temperature environments. This allows the conveyor system to properly guide the belt rather than fighting against it. The result is improved tracking, cleaner operations, easier maintenance, and reduced downtime.
Meet the Specs
Motion Conveyance Solutions now offers three Heat Carry belt solutions to suit a range of operating conditions.
The HC-710 is designed for high-temperature applications requiring strong crack resistance and dependable performance. It handles bulk material temperatures up to 750°F and is commonly used in cement plants, clinker conveying, dried lime operations, and taconite applications.
The HC-770 delivers enhanced abrasion resistance and superior heat-aging performance for operations handling aggressive materials and elevated temperatures up to 850°F. It is ideal for environments where both heat and wear are major operational concerns.
For facilities seeking maximum durability and longer service life, the HC-1500 offers premium performance with up to twice the lifespan of conventional heat-resistant conveyor belts. Its combination of flexibility, wear resistance, and heat performance helps reduce maintenance interventions and lower total cost of ownership.
Must-Know Capabilities
Another major advantage of the Heat Carry lineup is improved spliceability and handling. Traditional hot belts are often difficult to align and splice due to stiffness and lack of tack in the splice materials and adhesive. The flexibility of these belts allows maintenance teams to work more efficiently during installation and repair, helping reduce labor demands and simplify maintenance procedures.
Operationally, these benefits translate into:
- Better tracking performance.
- Less carryback and fugitive dust.
- Reduced cracking and edge wear.
- Cleaner conveyor operations.
- More reliable startup performance after shutdowns.
For operations dealing with recurring conveyor maintenance issues, the Bando Heat Carry lineup offers a smarter approach to high-temperature conveying.
