The unique chemical and mechanical characteristics of D&D belts together with the possibility of a wide variety of backings in different materials make D&D belts ideal for all conveying applications where synchronization is required. The engineer desi-gner has unlimited possibilities to make unique designs.
Polyamide fabric backings The special polyamide fabric backings allow a reduction of the friction coefficient and when applied on teeth, decrease noise in high speed drives. They are very useful in applications with sli-ding surfaces or product accumulation.
Coefficent of friction Polyurethane on steel µ= 0,7 Polyammide on steel µ= 0,35
Polyurethane film backing (foil) Among all synthetic materials and rubber compounds, polyurethane is the material which offers the best resistance to abrasion. Polyurethane films of different thickness and different shore hardness, applied on D&D belts, are an ideal solution in many appli-cations in the wood processing, ceramic and glass industry. On request it is possible to supply polyurethane backings FDA approved.
Polyurethane foam backings Polyurethane foams are easily compressible according to the cellular structure of the material. Due to this main characteristic, com-mon applications are: labelling equipment, light and/or fragile materials conveying, glass and paper industry, vacuum conveyors.
PVC backings PVC has a high coefficient of friction and a good resistance to acids. Due to its versatility, it is used in many applications in the paper, glass, ceramic industry, labelling and packing equipment. FDA quality allows the application in food industry processes.
Rubber backing Many different rubber backings in both synthetic and natural rubber are available. Due to rubber high friction coefficient and high tem-perature resistance, D&D polyurethane belt with rubber backing are used in many different conveying application: paper industry, ceramic industry, wood processing industry, glass industry, labelling and packaging machines.
