4 benefits of using metal belting in food manufacturing


Food manufacturing relies heavily on conveyor belt systems. Not simply

because it's far more efficient than manual labour, but because it's

considerably cheaper in the long run. Food manufacturing has to stand up to

extremely stringent regulations, and processes differ greatly between

different food items.


What works for raw meats won't work for baked goods, so it's

important to invest in the right system. Conveyor belts can be made of

numerous materials, but we believe that metal is the ideal option for food

manufacturing. Here's why.






Metal conveyor belts easily meet sanitation requirements: A recall is

an enormous headache for those in the food manufacturing industry. Not only

can it be extremely expensive, it can also do irreparable damage to a

manufacturer's reputation. Metal belts are capable of withstanding the

extremely high temperatures and pressure required for sanitation. An

additional benefit to metal belts is that they are nonporous. Plastic belts

are easily chipped and scratched which can become ideal locations for

hazardous chemicals or bacteria.




Metal conveyor belts can withstand extreme temperature variation:

In addition to sanitation, the heat resilience of metal gets extra points

for functionality. Some applications of food processing will require

cooking or cooling, and metal excels in both of these areas. A thermal

expansion coefficient dictates how a material can expand, contract or

otherwise change shape with temperature fluctuations. Most metals have a

fairly low coefficient, meaning they retain heat when subjected to temperature

change. Plastic can easily melt, warp or simply break during processes that

metal will roll through easily.




Metal conveyor belts are less environmentally taxing: While

virtually no manufacturing operation is without a carbon footprint, plastic is

far more taxing on the environment to produce. Plastics are made from

petroleum, which isn't exactly the poster child for sustainability. While

the production of metal does result in pollutants, the sector has made strides

in recent years.




Metal conveyor belts offer great flexibility: We don't

literally mean the ability to flex, but rather, there is a metal solution for

every pain point in food manufacturing. Metal conveyor belts generally have a

greater ratio of open area which means they are ideal for baking, cooking,

or any application where drainage is important. Furthermore, metal belts can

be used effectively in conveyors with singular or multiple tight turns, which

reduces the need for manual transferral to another belt.








The benefits of balancrd belts



[url=http://www.metallicconveyorbelts.com/metal-converyor-belts/balanced-

weave-belts.html]Balanced belt[/url] is an extremely popular mesh design,

found in almost every manufacturing industry with a wide ranging number of

possible applications. Benefits of Balanced Spiral belt include straight-

running operation, an excellent strength to weight ratio and an extremely wide

variety of mesh specifications to suit each individual application.




Balanced belt mesh features a simple yet effective design,

constructed from alternating left and right hand spiral coils. These coils are

held in place by interconnecting crimp rods which run through the width of the

belt. The edges of the belt can be supplied either welded or with a knuckled

selvedge.




Balanced belt gains its excellent tracking properties by employing

an alternating pattern which prevents the belt from pulling to one side.

Lateral movement within the belt is reduced by the use of specially crimped

rods which hold each spiral coil in place.




Balanced belt is most commonly supplied as friction-drive belt;

however certain meshes can be supplied as Positive-Drive, allowing sprockets

to engage with the belts mesh. Alternatively, we can supply Balanced Spiral

with chain edges for high load applications.




Cross-Flights and Side Plates are available for inclined

applications or product separation requirements , for applications with

particularly high load and/or for products which require a narrower aperture

than is possible with standard balanced spiral belts.








Features of Compound Weave Conveyor Belt


[url=http://www.metallicconveyorbelts.com/metal-converyor-belts/compound-

balanced-weave-belts.html]Compound weave conveyor belt[/url] supplies

extremely close and flat mesh. This is made of stainless steel and high carbon

steel. They all have excellent high temperature resistance performance and

high tensile strength. All these metals ensure the Compound weave conveyor

belt to be a strong, durable and high lifespan product. It is also known as

Cord Weave Belt. The structure of Compound weave conveyor belt is similar to

the balanced weave conveyor belt, which has multiple spirals and cross rods

per pitch. The compound weave conveyor belt has closer mesh than the balanced

conveyor belt. The closer mesh makes compound weave conveyor belt a high

density and high strength surface. The proven highest quality baking band

on the market. With right-and left-hand spirals fitted closely together

for a smooth, dense weave, our compound balanced (CB) belts are excellent for

conveying very fine or small products, as well as unstable or top-heavy items.

These belts are used extensively in the food processing industry, especially

for baking cookies, crackers and snack foods.




Great for bakeries and snack food operations




Easily customizable




Increased surface area




Better product stability




Carries heavier loads








The featured application of Polyester Filter Belts


[url=http://www.metallicconveyorbelts.com/metal-converyor-belts/filter-

mesh-belts.html]Filter belt [/url]of polyester or dacron mesh is designed as

screen media for high pressure press-filters and belt presses filtration

system. The synthetic filter cloth has great strength, stability, excellent

chemical resistance and cake release properties. The fabric is woven with

spiral

wire in big loop or large loop, medium loop, and small loop to

achieve varified filtration ratings. The mesh belt is popularly used used for

paper making, as drainage filter mesh for pulp machine pressing uses, also

coal washer, metal and mineral concertration and food industry. We offer press

filter screen with seam, non woven and coated mesh types. The Polyester

Filter Belts are specially designed filter cloth for the belt press filters,

it’s a circuit belt fabric connected by SS clipper seam to be able to work

continuously. The belt press filter cloth is a sturdy fabric made out of

high viscosity polyester monofilament yarn on heavy-duty weaving looms and

being heat set. Bonfilt’s choose superior polyester monofilament yarn,

weaving by advanced looms, excellent thermal treatment, all these makes our

polyester filter belts in precise aperture, good transverse stability,

lengthways flexibility, excellent mechanical strength and stability in shape

and dimension.





Municipal sludge, industrial sludge, biologic sludge,

dewatering and drying belt filter cloth for belt press filter: The polyester

filter belts as the belt press filter cloth, play a crucial part in the belt

filter press, etc, as it determines the actual output and efficiency of the

filtration process.




The special twill weave ensures precise filtration results, and

smooth surface makes filter cake comes off easily, the high-quality polyester

monofilament yarn makes our woven mesh filter belt fabrics being chemically-

resistant, good strength could withstand the greatest mechanical stresses and

long service life.




Fruit & vegetable juice pressing and dewatering: filter belts

are always safe, robust and reliable, the special weave to get accurate pore

size and sturdy surface combined which ensure optimum juice yield and

dewatering result, the high-quality material and thermal treatment make the

press belt fabrics in smooth running properties and good durability.








What is the use of flat belt conveyor?


Flat belts are useful

for internal conveyance, i.e. transporting items within a facility. This type

of conveyor belt uses a series of powered pulleys to move a continuous flat

belt, which can consist either of natural material or synthetic fabric (ex.

polyester, nylon).2Flat wire belts offer important advantages in many

industrial and food processing applications. They provide faster drainage of

liquids, free air circulation and ease of cleaning. Thus, they are ideal in

operations where sanitation is a prime consideration. The flat surface also

facilitates transfer operations such as sorting and assembling. All welded-

edge belts feature the resistance welding of every other crossrod to the flat

strip near each edge of the belt. This provides greater strength and

eliminates belt shrinkage under heavy loads without restricting flexibility of

the belt. here are some useful point of it:





The largest proportion of open-mesh area available- up to 86%




Easy to clean, clean-in-place design




No-slip, positive drive




Very low belt mass




Smallest diameter end rolls and drive rolls




Positive driven for accurate tracking
