1. A fixed radius conveyor belt system, where the conveyor belt is assembled from a plurality of belt modules, where each belt module comprises a leading edge and a trailing edge, and an inner side and an outer side and with a modular belt body between the leading edge, trailing edge, outer side and inner side, and where a plurality of eye parts extend from the leading and trailing edges, where the eye parts are off-set on one edge relative to the other edge, such that when two adjacent like modular belt modules are pushed together, the eye parts on a trailing edge will inter-fit between eye parts on a leading edge and were apertures are provided in the eye parts, the apertures arranged along an axis parallel to the leading edge or the trailing edge, wherein the leading edge and the trailing edge are arranged with a mutual angle α, such that an axis parallel and through the leading edge will intercept an axis through and parallel to the trailing edge in a turning center, and where the eye parts are defined by two sides extending from the leading edge or trailing edge, and a distal end connecting the two sides, where a first side of an eye part closest to the turning center is curved following a first radius and the other side of the eye part is curved following a second radius larger than the first radius, such that eye parts further away from the turning center will have curved sides following ever larger circle radiuses.
