The History of Conveyor Belting | stop-du.org

Conveyor belting goes as far back as the 19th century. In fact it was all the way back in 1892 when Thomas Robins invented something more primitive than we see today. This was used to transport coal to various points. A couple of years later steel conveyor belts were invented, which made life a lot easier to manage. In fact the mining industry really took off from this point. The great Henry Ford invented a conveyor belt for his factory in Michigin.
