Abstract

A conveyor belt has edges with longitudinally extending profiles formed as grooves or elevations for sealing and guiding. An apparatus for producing belts with profiled edges uses a cutting device and profiled molds to form profiles in the belt and its edge while the belt is guided and supported by rolls. The apparatus further includes a cutter which forms a groove in the conveyor belt and which allows lateral guiding of the bolt in relation to the mold.
