As for the belt, we are using a modular conveyor system that one of our sponsors sells.

Each link is made of plastic and is able to pivot slightly in its track to go around corners (or give some play when picking up totes!) The whole belt then rides inside of an aluminum extrusion. To mount the hooks to the belt we took off a few links and drilled holes through back of the link for countersunk screws. It turned out pretty well!
