Types of conveyor belts

At Hardiflon we can make many different belts that you require depending on the machine you use, some belts are:

  • IBO (Internal baking oven belts/mats)
  • Can washer/dryer belts
  • Rubber/silicon extruder belts
  • Shrink tunnel belts
  • Screen print dryer
  • Double belt press/fusing press belts
  • Drying oven belts
  • Contact cooker belts

High-temperature PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) conveyor belts are specialised belts designed to withstand extreme heat, chemical exposure and mechanical stress. These belts are commonly used in industrial applications where high temperatures and non-stick properties are required.

Key Features:

1.High-Temperature Resistance

  • Can withstand temperatures ranging from -70°C to +260°C (some grades up to 316°C).
  • Suitable for ovens, drying chambers, and heat-sealing applications.

2.Non-Stick Surface

  • PTFE coating provides an extremely low friction surface, preventing material adhesion.
  • Ideal for food processing, textile drying, and screen printing.

3.Chemical Resistance

  • Resistant to most chemicals, acids, and solvents.
  • Suitable for harsh industrial environments.

4.Durability and Strength

  • Reinforced with fiberglass or Kevlar for added tensile strength.
  • Available in mesh or solid configurations for different applications.

5.Food-Grade Safety

  • FDA-compliant versions are available for food processing and baking applications.

Types of PTFE Conveyor Belts:

  1. Solid PTFE Coated Belts – Used in high-temperature sealing and packaging applications.
  2. PTFE Mesh Belts – Used in drying and curing processes where airflow is essential.
  3. PTFE Zone Belts – Feature specific PTFE-coated zones for precise applications.

Advantages:

  • Excellent heat resistance and non-stick properties.
  • Energy-efficient due to low heat absorption.
  • Reduces production downtime by preventing material buildup.
  • Available in different thicknesses and porosities for various applications.
