Abstract: The invention relates to a method for filling in a tension member in particular for conveyor belts, in particular a tension member which is configured as a steel cable. The method is intended to allow the full penetration of the tension member structure. Here, the method contains at least the following method steps: —introducing the individual wires (2, 2?, 2?, 2??, 2??) of the strand (5) into the stranding head (1) of a stranding machine (10) and—partially or fully applying at least one coating agent to at least 50% of the individual wires (2, 2?, 2?, 2??, 2??) of the strand (5) prior to the twisting of the individual wires (2, 2?, 2?, 2??, 2??) to form a strand (5) or simultaneously with the twisting of the individual wires (2, 2?, 2?, 2??, 2??) to form a strand (5) and—twisting the individual wires (2, 2?, 2?, 2??, 2??) to form a strand (5), wherein at least 50% of the individual wires (2, 2?, 2?, 2??, 2??) have been provided with at least one coating agent, and—making a cable from at least one strand (5).

Abstract: A conveyor belt includes a first outer sheet disposed on a loadbearing side of the conveyor belt, a second outer sheet disposed on a drive side of the conveyor belt, and an embedded tension-member system disposed between the two sides, which is in the form of cords running parallel in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor belt. The tension-member system includes steel and, prior to vulcanization of the conveyor belt, an expandable coating which, after vulcanization of the conveyor belt, has a pore structure provided to at least portions of the tension-member system. The sheets are formed from a polymeric material with resilient properties. In some aspects, the volume of the coating after vulcanization is from 30 to 5000% higher than prior to vulcanization. The coating may contain at least one of a blowing agent and/or microbeads.
