Conveyor belt: C-CureEdge® - Prevent belt catching and improve safety.

The necessity to spread/separate or converge products while they are moving on a process belt conveyor is a major requirement for a wide range of food, confectionery and industrial applications. In many cases this allows processors to run narrower conveyors saving factory floor space. Coating processes also benefit by separating product and reducing rejection rates.

Joining tubes can be used to create a hybrid join between a full strand weave and the use of joining clips. A single strand is cut into smaller single space sections, which are woven into the belt and joined together by crimping a stainless steel joining tube onto the adjacent wire sections. This method maintains the belt strength of a full strand weave while eliminating the distortion that occurs during the weaving process. It is important to consider whether joining tubes could mark product or have hygiene implications when choosing this method.

Honeycomb is an ideal choice for any application which requires both durability and an open belt design whilst maintaining a flat carrying surface. Its high strength-to-weight ratio also makes it an ideal choice for customers keen to improve their energy efficiency.
