sliding apron conveyor Explanation: Terms beginning with "Schieb-" usually translate into sliding (or slide).... I found Gliederband (also: Plattenband) and apron conveyor was the most commonly used translation, but I also found slat conveyor, so it might just be sliding slat conveyor. |

Schiebegliederband Explanation: I would suggest "sliding link conveyor", because the word "apron conveyor" would be wrong (it means "Gliederbandbeförderer" and not "Gliederband"). |

steel thrust belt Explanation: Since the context is automotive transmission design, I suggest the term "steel thrust belt". Another German term used in this context is also "Schubgliederband". It is a belt consisting of many small steel plates used in automatic transmissions. |
