French term or phrase: bandes convoyeuses/bandes transporteuses
I thinkits really the same thing, but the 2 terms are used. A company contract, the part which describes company activity : "La Société XXX est propriétaire d’un fonds de commerce dont l’objet est la fourniture et la maintenance de bandes convoyeuses pour la sidérurgie, la cimenterie, les activités minières, portuaires et industrielles et plus généralement toute activité accessoire ou complémentaire s'y rattachant." and further down the document "la socité détient un savoir-faire et des compétences spécifiques en matière de commerce et de maintenance de bandes transporteuses."
help welcome

neutral Leonid Gornik: It's hard to imagine a company servicing belts only. I would say "belt conveyors" grammar notwithstanding

  -> Point taken. You may well be right but as Bourth says below, some companies do supply and servicing just conveyor belts.

agree Bourth: Not saying LG is necessarily wrong, but I can well imagine a co. working on just the belts.

  -> Thanks "Bourth". I think Dianne needs to check the company's web site to be sure.
