SERIES 8

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document is an excerpt from the Siegling Prolink Engineering Manual, focusing on Series 8 straight running modular belts with a pitch of 25.4 mm (1 inch). These belts are designed for medium to heavy-duty applications and are available in various surface types and materials.
Design Characteristics: The belts feature a closed hinge design for high belt pull capacity, a rigid module design suitable for long conveyors, robust and durable module and sprocket design, and a closed solid edge design. A flame retardant version is available, compliant with DIN EN 13501-1.
Basic Data: The belts have a pitch of 25.4 mm (1 inch), a minimum belt width of 38.1 mm (1.5 inches), and width increments of 12.7 mm (0.5 inches). Hinge pins are 5 mm (0.2 inches) in diameter and made of plastic materials such as PBT, PP, and PA-HT.
Belt Types and Specifications:
  • S8.1-0 FLT: Closed, smooth surface with a flat top.
  • S8.1-0 SRS: Closed, slip-resistant surface.
  • S8.1-0 NSK/NSK2: Closed surface with a non-skid pattern for increased safety.
  • S8-25 RAT: Open surface with 25% opening and rounded contact surfaces.
  • S8.1-30 FLT: Open surface with 30% opening and flat top surface.
  • S8-0 FRT1: Closed surface with friction top.
  • S8-0 RTP A90: Closed surface with roller top.
Materials and Certifications: The belts are available in various materials and colors, including POM, PP, and PA-HT, with options for FDA and EU compliance. Temperature ranges and nominal belt pull capacities are specified for each material type.
Additional Features: The belts can be customized with different sprocket sizes, profiles for inclines, and side guards for bulk product retention. Mold to width options are available for specific dimensions.
Specifications: The belts are straight running with a pitch of 25.4 mm (1 inch). They are available in various materials and colors, including POM, PP, and PE, with colors such as Black (BK), Blue (BL), Light Gray (LG), and White (WT). The document specifies measurements and tolerances at 21°C, with adjustments for temperature deviations detailed in the Prolink manual.
Materials and Compliance: The belts comply with FDA 21 CFR, EU regulations 10/2011 and 1935/2004, and Japanese MHLW Notification 370. More materials and colors are available upon request.
Dimensions and Flexibility: The document provides detailed dimensions for belt thickness, pin diameter, and minimum flex radii. It also includes information on nominal belt pull, weight, and width deviation. The belts are designed for various applications, with specific configurations for open and closed surfaces, friction tops, and roller tops.
Sprockets: The manual details sprocket sizes, dimensions, and shaft bore options. Sprockets are available in both standard and split configurations, allowing for easy assembly without dismounting the shaft. They are designed for deep tooth engagement to handle heavy loads.
Profiles: Profiles with reinforced bases are available to handle high loads. The document specifies the highest available profile for 1-inch pitch belts, which is impact-resistant with reinforced bases and rips in TPC1 material.
Additional Information: The document includes variant-specific dimensions and configurations for different belt types, emphasizing the importance of using accessories in belts and their impact on minimum design radii.
Specifications:
  • Side Guards: Available in various heights (25 mm to 100 mm) and colors (Blue, Light Blue, White). Designed for straight running belts with a pitch of 25.4 mm (1 inch).
  • Profiles: Highest available profile for 1-inch pitch belts, made from TPC1 material in Light Gray, with a height of 152.4 mm (6 inches).
  • Hold Down Tabs: Used to prevent lift in wider belts and improve strength and stability. Constraints exist regarding sprocket and shaft size.
  • Pin Retained Rollers: Suitable for applications requiring low back pressure accumulation or product separation. Available in POM BK and TPE LG materials.
Procedures and Recommendations:
  • All measurements and tolerances are applicable at 21°C. For temperature deviations, refer to chapter 4.4 on temperature influence.
  • Use of accessories may impact minimum design radii; consult chapter 6.3 for details.
  • For low back pressure, wearstrips should be positioned between rollers; for product separation, below the rollers.
Standards and Norms:
  • Imperial dimensions are rounded off for standardization.
  • Coefficient of friction in accumulation mode is approximately 0.04, indicating accumulation pressure is about 4% of the product weight.
Key Data from Tables:
  • Sprocket Options: Various sizes available, with maximum bore dimensions provided for both round and square configurations.
  • Dimensions: Detailed dimensions for roller cut out width, roller diameter, and spacing are provided to ensure proper installation and operation.
Legend and Material Information:
  • Comprehensive legend explaining series, open area, surface pattern, type, style, color, height/diameter, length/width, and material codes.
  • Materials include various polymers like Polyethylene, Polypropylene, and Polyoxymethylene, each with specific properties and applications.
