A Track belt is a loop of flexible material used to mechanically link two or more rotating shafts, most often parallel. Belts may be used as a source of motion, to transmit power efficiently, or to track relative movement. Belts are looped over pulleys. In a two pulley system, the belt can either drive the pulleys in the same direction, or the belt may be crossed, so that the direction of the shafts is opposite.

Belt slips because it extends while in motion
The extension in the belt is a function of friction between belt and ground, load on the bot, the tension in the belt(how tight it is), difference in tension at the slack side and tight side.
Every belt can handle only a limited tension depending on its stiffness
No matter how tight you make it, how rough the pulleys are, it would slip off due to its limited stiffness.
Either reduces the load on the bot which in turn would reduce the tension in the belt or use a stiffer belt.
See if you can get belt of greater thickness and width hence you would find a stiffer belt.

Do you know how many sizes of knitting machine belts there are?
The transmission mechanism is controlled by a leveler with an infinitely variable speed motor. The motor uses a v-belt or a timing belt (toothed belt) to drive the main shaft gear, which at the same time is passed to the large disc gear, thus driving the needle barrel carrying the needles and carrying out the knitting. The main shaft is extended above the large circular machine and drives the yarn feeding disc to deliver the yarn in the required quantity. The drive mechanism is required to run smoothly and without noise.
