As reported by MeatInternational.com Designed to be uniquely stronger than other light-duty conveyor belting, this new food-safe belt is specially engineered to have wide openings for easy cleaning without compromising strength and durability.
This new design can be spliced in as little as 30 seconds. Cambridge International, Inc. introduces the most open metal belt available that does not compromise belt strength. Patent-pending Duraflex™ metal conveyor belting handles heavier loads than typical light-duty conveyor belts, while remaining cleanable and open – perfect for many food processing applications. Retrofitting units is simple, as Duraflex™ belting works with virtually any existing support bed configuration.
Reduces downtime and maintenance
This design of Duraflex™ metal conveyor belting reduces maintenance and downtime because it can be spliced in as little as 30 seconds without welding or the use of special tools. Cambridge engineers have created an easy and fast technique to splice this belt.
A replacement rod slides into the edge of the belt from the side. Next, the pre-clinched rod hooks over the small tab that sticks out of the sides – and it’s done. The splice is as strong as the rest of the belt so there is no weak point to fail.
Another important benefit of the new design relates to the small diameter drive rolls or sprockets that are used with DURAFLEX™ metal conveyor belting. These allow for extremely tight transfers, thereby reducing product damage and loss of even small delicate products.
