EVALUATING OPTIONS The two traditional solutions for food processor’s conveying needs: fabric based PVC / PU belts and plastic modular belts. FABRIC BELTS Fabric based belts and their construction carry major threats to modern food production facilities. The fabric layers are prone to contamination from blood and other liquids during product processing, which provide a perfect breeding ground for bacteria. MODULAR BELTS Modular belts have eliminated the fabric layers and allow for no absorption of any liquids by the belt. However, the modular system, which entails many gaps, hinges, and dead spots, makes perfect cleaning impossible. CHALLENGES FOR PROCESSING PLANTS…

INO USA Linear Timing Belts are produced as open-end material and are used both as linear solutions, e.g. for positioning systems or elevators, and as endless belts of high-quality finish. Consisting of thermoplastic polyurethane (92° Shore A) and high-quality steel tensile cords, INO USA Linear Timing Belts offer not only high wear resistance, but also excellent running characteristics even at high loads. STEEL CORDS The special INO USA extrusion method embeds steel tensile cords more thoroughly than conventional production methods, while a special cord tension control process guarantees optimal tracking. ARAMID CORDS For special applications, steel tensile cords can be…
INO Process and Conveyor Belts can be fitted with profiles as carriers or V-guides. The thermoplastic profiles are welded directly onto the belt surface.
