Created for smooth performance while carrying the brunt of a load.
Making sure your operations stay flawless through years of the most intense conditions.
Fluent Conveyors offers z-pan roller chain replacement belts so your operation can keep
moving at full speed.
Z-pan conveyor belts are made of interlocking Z-shaped plates that mount to heavy-duty chains to form the conveying surface. Z-shaped pans create a staggered belt texture that captures small materials and secures them on inclines.
We build the most rugged and durable conveyors on the planet. Each cleated belt conveyor system is designed, engineered, and manufactured in the United States to your exact specifications. We combine cutting-edge facilities with seasoned technical expertise to optimize each conveyor for longevity and superior performance.
Our conveyors are built to withstand the harshest operating environments and most demanding applications.
CEMA standards

Fluent cleated conveyor belts are utilized across a wide variety of industries due to their ability to efficiently transport materials, especially in applications involving steep inclines or the need for precise material placement. Here's how they are used in several key industries:
The mining and foundry industries rely on cleated conveyor belts to provide a reliable grip on materials such as coal and ore, preventing them from slipping and reducing spillage during transit.
In the recycling industry, cleated conveyor belts offer improved efficiency of sorting, transferring, and separating recyclables, such as paper and OCC.
The transportation industry uses cleated conveyor belts for handling packages, loading goods onto vessels or airplanes, and transporting items from warehouses to delivery trucks.
Cleated belt conveyors in the automotive industry transport parts and components between manufacturing processes.
E-commerce companies utilize cleated incline conveyors in warehouses to efficiently use both vertical and horizontal space, safely and reliably transporting a wide range of goods.
In the agriculture industry, cleated conveyor belts are used for grain handling and seed planting, ensuring uniform depth placement of seeds and reducing soil compaction, which promotes better crop growth.
We provide a comprehensive range of replacement parts and components to keep your Fluent cleated belt conveyor running in peak condition.
