Flat belts are often forgotten about in machinery; however, they do play an important part in many industrial functions. They are the easiest way to transmit power, convey goods, and operate several other machines. ZZR Parts flat belts, which are designed for specific industries, have different types as a principle.
This post peeks into the materials and characteristics of ZZR’s flat belts, concentrating their usage across various sectors.
Materials for Tailored Performance
ZZR’s flat belts have diverse traction layer components, each with its own unique benefits:
- Polyamide: Known for reliability as well as long service lives, polyamide belts stand up very well to intermittent overloads and high temperatures. In addition, they can be bonded using the Thermofix method that employs adhesives.
- Polyester: Polyester belts are environmentally friendly and very flexible, requiring minimum energy consumption while being easy to connect. Quickmelt or Flexproof joining techniques are available at ZZR for these forms of the belt.
- Aramid: This is another energy-saving option Aramid has a high E-modulus (stiffness) and excellent joining qualities too. It is highly flexible, so it is ideal for long belts, which ensures accuracy and minimal take-up settings for belt speed and RPM (revolutions per minute).
- Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU): TPU belts, which have a remarkably long life span and fantastic endurance against wear and high temperatures, are also known for their outstanding low-temperature response and superior tear strength. They can be put together using Flexproof or Quickmelt-like polyester belts.
ZZR can make custom flat belts that perfectly suit the application requirements according to the peculiar properties of each material.
Diverse applications with distinct features
Different types of functionality are found in ZZR’s flat belts, such as:
- Power Transmission Flat Belts: These belts are tailored for two major industries: the textile industry (yarn processing, cards, draw frames, roving frames, spinning frames, twisting machines, texturing machines, winders, and overhead cleaners) and the paper & postal industry (calendars; paper mills; pulpers; slitters; web feeders; folders; finishing machines; converting lines; and letter sorters).
- Spindle Tapes: Specifically designed for paper manufacturing, processing, and yarn processing applications, these belts guarantee smooth running in demanding conditions.
- Machine Tapes: Machine tapes are ideal for letter sorting processes, and they can deliver excellent performance in terms of paper manufacturing and processing, including printing and finishing operations, as well as secondary packaging.
- Folder-gluer belts : They were created with the cardboard converting and paper processing industries in mind to ensure that they are efficient while operating on the folder-gluer machines.
- Processing Belts: These belts are useful for industrial automation, cardboard converting, paper making and processing, paper printing and finishing, and secondary packaging as well as diverse applications.
Other uses of these flat belts include tangential drives, pen drives, multiple pulley drives, and live roller drives, which make them suitable for various power transmission applications, including conveying needs.
