Knife-edge Belt Applications

Knife-edge Belt Applications TPU and TPE conveyor belts with high longitudinal flexibility, ideal for knife-edge applications for a smooth transfer from one conveyor to the other. Laterally rigid and suitable for small radius of 3mm. FDA & EU10/2011 food quality with excellent resistance to animal and vegetable oils and fats. Shiny, matt, patterned and textured…

Conveyor Belts with Wick Resistant Fabric

Wick Resistant Conveyor Belts Wicking occurs when a fabric soaks up oils and fluids quickly like the wick of an oil lamp.   Esbelt´s  wick resistant conveyor belts prevent the absorption of water and oils, enhancing the hygiene in food applications.   Even though the bottom cover fabric is not covered by thermoplastic, its wick resistant property protects…

Oil resistant

Oil resistant The thermoplastic covers of most of our conveyor belts are designed to perform favorably when in contact with certain oils or greases.  The oil resistant property prevents the belt covers from degrading prematurely and allows the belts to perform at their optimum efficiency. Our oil resistant belts are designed according to the applications…

Cut resistant

Cut resistant Our cut resistant belts are made of topcover thermoplastics formulated to withstand repeated cuts from sharp objects, like glass and metal parts.  Suitable for stamping lines, recycling lines, glass and stone polishing lines, poultry and meat cutting lines. Belts with this property include: PVC belts – BREDA 22CF, BREDA 30CF, KERAM 40RF and…

Anti-Hydrolysis

Anti-Hydrolysis Hydrolysis is understood as the breaking down of a component upon reacting with water, vapour or humidity.  Among the different thermoplastics, PVC is relatively more resistant to water and performs well in applications where water is present.   Although Polyurethane is an excellent product against animal fats and vegetable oils, it tends to degrade…

Anti-static

Anti-static Electrostatic charge in the conveyor belt may be caused by friction between the belt and the slider bed and/or the movement of the conveyed product or due to ionisation of the air (dry and dusty atmospheres). Although the static current is usually of low intensity, it can be the cause of problems for example…

Flame retardant

Flame retardant The flame retardant property measures the capacity of the conveyor belt to extinguish a flame on it and the ease with which the flame reappears once extinguished. In esbelt, this inflammability test is carried out in accordance with the ISO 340 standard or ASTM D378 standard, depending on the belt application. ISO 340…

Pyrolysis Test

Pyrolysis Test The Pyrolysis Test consists of  the combustion of a belt sample at 810ºC.  The gases produced are collected and analysed to make sure that they are free from NITROGEN (N), SULPHUR (S) and HALOGENS – Chlorine (Cl), Fluoride (F).  Our belts in the VERNA (polyolefin) and POLER (thermo-polyester) series,  recommended for use in…

Thickness regularity

Excellent thickness regularity The photo below illustrates the control panel during the production of our PU belts.   During the production process, a transverse section of a belt is captured as shown in this image with an average thickness (fabric with top cover) of 0.753mm, with a variance of 0.763 – 0.742 = 0.021mm between the maximum and…
