Conveyor OEMs: “Shaped” Wire Belt Lasts Up to 8 Times Longer

For conveyor OEMs, the demanding processes of some customers, such as food processors and manufacturers that use heat treating, can be notoriously hard on their conveyor belting, which can lead to excessive replacement and production downtime as well as reliability issues. Fortunately, for conveyor OEMs looking to enhance longevity and reliability for such customers, industry innovation in the form of an engineered, “shaped” wire belt has minimized these challenges. This enables them to offer their breaded food processing customers as well as manufacturers that use heat treating a belting design that vastly prolongs usable life with increased strength and decreased stretch—which dramatically curtails production downtime and replacement costs.
