Product catalog summary
Overview
Forbo Siegling introduces its new elastic belt design, which ensures precise tracking and centering, eliminating common issues with conveyor belts. The belts are designed with a single-ply fabric featuring elastic warp threads, allowing them to compensate for minor alignment errors.

Specifications
The elastic belts are characterized by:
  • Single-ply fabric design without weft distortion for excellent tracking and centering.
  • Reliable operation on undersquare conveyors (width greater than center distance).
  • Quick fitting with the possibility of using mechanical fasteners.

Cost-Efficiency
No tracking profile is needed on the belt's underside for conical-cylindrical drive drums, and no profile groove is required in rollers or slider beds. Belts can be fitted pre-tensioned, eliminating the need for a take-up unit.

Length Tolerances
Due to fabric elasticity, the following length tolerances apply:
  • Belts without tracking profile: +0/–1.0% of belt length.
  • Belts with tracking profile: +0/–1.5% of belt length.
An appropriate take-up range must be considered when designing the conveyor.

Product Range
The document lists various elastic belt types, each with specific characteristics such as thickness, Shore A hardness, and suitability for different applications like inclined conveying and food compliance.

Company Information
Forbo Siegling operates globally with around 2,400 employees and production facilities in ten locations worldwide. The company has service points in over 300 locations and complies with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards, ensuring high-quality products and services.
