Looking for a PTFE belt that does not stick? Look no further
What is more irritating than having your production process being put to a stop because of a problem with the conveyor belt? Indeed, discovering that there is no toilet paper left after having used the bathroom. All jokes aside, problems with conveyor belts are causing significant delays in the production process which may seem small and unimportant. Yet, if the lost time and production errors are added together the costs for these minor issues can become higher than expected. Using the PTFE belts from Hardick B.V. has helped me improve my production agility with 5.6% with respect to the year before. As a large-scale bread supplier this is a great win for a small effort! And you can achieve the same, read on and find out how PTFE belts can make a difference for you.
When you say Hardick, you say PTFE belts. But what makes them so special?
Conveyor belts need to be able to withstand harsh conditions. Often there is heat involved, large pressure, resistance or aggressive chemicals. You need a belt that does not stick, that can withstand this heat, that has superior chemical resilience and does not allow for fungus and bacteria to grow in them. Luckily the PTFE belts from Hardick have the perfect solution for you. Their PTFE belts are made from the best materials and with the newest techniques which result in the following qualities:
- Resists heat up to +260 ºC
- Has a high torque even at small volumes (up to 8000N/5CM)
- Causes extremely low friction (0,05)
- Has excellent anti-adherence properties
- Is highly resilient against chemicals
- Has a slight heat capacity (1.000 kJ/kg.K) and heat los
- Eliminates the need for solvents in the coating systems
- Very light structures are possible for furnace builds
- Doesn’t allow bacterial and fungal growth
This makes the PTFE belts widely applicable as seen in the production of a diversity of foods, bake- and fry products, nonwoven- and screen-printing materials, carpets, for car industries extruded rubber products and isolation products. As well as the packaging industry are large and happy customers of the PTFE belts. Some examples of where the belts are applied are: infrared dryers, UV-dryers, Shrink tunnels, heat seal belts, cooling tunnels, laminators, reverse coating systems, dry ovens, food industry belts and glue processes.
