Which is better, belt conveyor or roller?

Roller conveyor belt and belt conveyor belt each have their own advantages and applicable scenarios, and the choice of which one is better depends on specific application requirements.

The advantages of roller conveyor belts include:

Simple structure: easy to maintain and install.
Wide applicability: suitable for conveying requirements of different needs.
Suitable for discrete materials: able to easily adapt to the transportation of materials of different sizes and shapes.
Roller conveyor belts are mainly suitable for top heavy loads and side guidance, suitable for conveying discrete materials, and widely used in manufacturing, logistics and other fields.

The advantages of belt conveyors include:

Long distance and high-strength conveying: suitable for the transportation of large amounts of materials, especially in situations where the height distance of the conveying unloading point is large.
Continuous production operation: capable of long-distance transmission, suitable for mining, building materials, chemical and other fields.
Overload protection function: In case of overload, the belt will slip on the pulley, protecting weak components from damage.
Low cost: simple structure, low precision requirements for manufacturing and installation, no need for lubrication, and easy maintenance.
Belt conveyors are suitable for long-distance and high-strength transportation, as well as the transportation of large amounts of materials, especially in situations where the height distance of the discharge point is relatively large.

In summary, there is no absolute “good” or “bad”, and the choice between roller conveyor belts or belt conveyor belts should be determined based on actual application scenarios and needs.
