Belts - Import export

With Siegling Transilon, the gap is often bridged between the classical conveying function from “A” to “B” and an active function in the production process. For example, in the textile industry our processing belts stack thin layers of web, in large bakeries they form balls of dough, in the wood industry they compress chip mat in the pre-press, in dairies milk is coagulated on the belts to form cheese. Here are just a few examples of process operations. Cross-lapping of web layers in the nonwoven industry. High production speed and acceleration of masses while the web is guided directly between the belts places extremely high demands on the processing belts.

Siegling Extremultus drag belts are special developments with superior mechanical and electrostatic characteristics which make conveying and handling electronic components more efficient and safe: due to the HC or HC+ characteristics (highly conductive or highly conductive plus) the static electricity that builds up in the conveyor can be discharged better in a controlled manner; due to simplified accumulation with TT types which produce consistently low friction coefficients on the top face and underside; due to a particularly high level of abrasion resistance, as well as stable, lint-free belt edges. Siegling Extremultus drag belts are supplied endless, prepared for splicing, or as roll material.

Siegling Extremultus tangential belts have been optimized to suit the diverse range of yarn-manufacturing processes and different drive shapes. They play a major role in ensuring consistently high yarn quality and efficient production due to the following characteristics: superior abrasion-resistant coatings made of elastomer G or polyurethane with constant friction coefficients and long service lives; optimized surface pattern for the spindle and motor side; less belt creep and excellent levels of power transmission; energy-efficient polyester or aramide tension members; polyamide sheet tension members with good damping characteristics for high levels of effective pull; low-noise and low-vibration operation; antistatic finishes. Siegling Extremultus tangential belts are supplied as roll material, prepared for splicing or have already been spliced. With our splicing methods, homogeneous, reliable splices can be made efficiently while belts are still on the machinery.

Compared with other power-transmission products, Siegling Extremultus power-transmission belts stand apart because they offer a better level of efficiency (≥ 98 %), high level of synchronization accuracy and are uncomplicated to handle.
