| Conveyor
Belts: Industry's Lifeline |
 |
| In these days of
high-speed, mass transportation of goods,
the ability to move materials over a
long distance, continuously and economically,
is making conveyor belts even more important
to industry. Since its establishment
in 1917, Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd. has
been manufacturing conveyor belts, and
conducting research and development
on new technology and products. |
| Three World
Records |
|
| Yokohama Rubber was
the first company in Japan to develop
steel-cord conveyor belts for long-distance
applications. The company is the market
leader, and holds world records for
the longest conveyor line, at 14,089
meters, the longest curved conveyor
line at, 11,103 meters, and the widest
conveyor belt, at 3,200 millimeters. |
| ISO 9001
Quality |
|
| At Yokohama Rubber,
for over 80 years we have been designing,
developing, and manufacturing conveyor
belts and systems that meet the needs
of our customers. As one example, we
introduced the world's largest and most
modern vulcanizing press and added our
advanced production technology to create
the YS production system, which ensures
the production of steel-cord belts of
the highest quality. As proof of our
quality assurance, in January 1994 we
acquired ISO 9001 certification. |
| Choosing
the right product for the job |
|
| The key to rationalization
of a conveyor system is to choose the
right belt for the task. Yokohama Rubber
conveyor belts are available in a broad
range of specifications relating to
cover compound, carcass and structure.
