Modular Belt & Flat Top Chain Conveyors Manufacturer in India
At Synergy Automatics, we manufacture a wide range of modular belt conveyors and flat top chain conveyors to meet the evolving needs of material handling across industries like packaging, food processing, manufacturing, and logistics. Our modular systems offer a durable, versatile, and low-maintenance solution, overcoming many limitations of traditional flat belt conveyors.
What is a Modular Belt Conveyor?
A modular belt is made from a series of interlocking plastic parts (usually PP or Acetal) that form a hinged chain structure. Unlike traditional flat belts, modular belts run over sprockets rather than rollers, offering positive drive and eliminating belt tracking problems.
Advantages Over Flat Belts:
- Stronger resistance to cutting, abrasion, and chemicals
- Ideal for wet, greasy, or curved conveyor layouts
- Easier belt repair and maintenance
How Modular Belt Conveyors Work
- The belt is driven by a shaft-mounted sprocket system.
- Due to the direct positive drive, there’s no belt tracking adjustment needed.
- Catenary sag, sprocket spacing, minimum radius for curves, and support roller placement must follow belt manufacturer guidelines.
- Modular belts allow conveyor designs in straight, S-curve, L-curve, and spiral shapes.
Types of Modular Belt & Flat Top Chain Conveyors
Straight Modular Belt Conveyor
A simple, straight-line modular belt conveyor designed for efficient horizontal transport across production floors or assembly lines.
It features durable plastic links and smooth product flow, making it easy to maintain and clean. Available with open or closed surface designs based on application needs.
Best For:Bottling plants, packaging units, automotive assembly lines.
Inclined Modular Belt Conveyor
Built to move goods vertically upwards or downwards with ease, these conveyors use special cleats or sidewalls to prevent material rollback.
Designed with compact frames and robust support structures, they are perfect for limited-space environments while handling inclined transport efficiently.
Best For:Warehouses, logistics centres, food and beverage plants.
Spiral Modular Belt Conveyor
These conveyors allow continuous vertical movement without consuming much floor space, using a spiral configuration.
They offer high-speed transfer, gentle handling, and space optimization, supporting upward and downward movement seamlessly.
Best For:E-commerce hubs, bakeries, bottling plants.
Cooling Modular Belt Conveyor
Designed for applications requiring cooling during transit, these conveyors feature ventilated modular belts that allow air circulation underneath the products.
The system enables faster cooling times and protects fragile goods from heat distortion during production.
Best For:Plastic molding plants, bakeries, food production facilities.
Knife Edge Modular Belt Conveyor
Specially crafted for smooth transfer of small or delicate items, these conveyors feature tiny-diameter rollers (“knife-edges”) at ends.
This minimizes gaps between adjacent conveyors, ensuring reliable product transfer without jamming or product drop.
Best For:Pharmaceutical companies, electronics manufacturers, bakeries.
Food Grade Modular Belt Conveyor
Built with FDA-compliant materials and hygienic construction practices, these conveyors ensure safe direct food contact.
Structures are often made of stainless steel and are designed for easy wash-down and sanitation.
Best For: Meat processing, seafood, dairy plants, pharma production.
Cleated & Side Wall Modular Belt Conveyor
Equipped with ultrasonically welded cleats and side walls, these conveyors secure loose materials during transport on steep inclines.
They offer excellent material containment and prevent product rollback or spillage during movement.
Best For:Grain handling, powders, seeds, food and packaging industries.
Bucket Modular Belt Conveyor
In this system, small molded buckets are fixed on a modular belt to lift bulk material vertically.
It combines high-volume transport capability with secure containment, making it ideal for handling fine or small-sized bulk products.
Best For:Agricultural produce (seeds, grains), cement industries, chemical powders.
