Habasit - Solutions in motion Improved Productivity and Reduced Line Downtime with HabaSYNC® Wide Timing Belts The Automotive industry is famously competitive and cost conscious, so tire manufacturers rely on belt life time to keep productivity rates high. After all, belts used in the tire building process operate in tough conditions. Replacement of a damaged belt can cost an entire shift in duration and the attention of from 4 to 6 operators. This could mean a loss of in excess of 5,000 car tires due to line downtime. However, this can be avoided with HabaSYNC® Wide Timing Belts. The widest available solution on the market Belts used in tire building machines very often are comprised of a number of narrow belts joined longitudinally, or belts running in parallel to achieve the desired width. With a Wide Timing Belt, the need for longitudinal joining, which could be a point of potential failure, is eliminated, as is the need to install multiple parallel belts. Wide Timing Belts also improve positioning through precise alignment, which can be challenging for parallel belts. At 600mm, HabaSYNC® Wide Timing Belts offer the widest timing belt solution available in the market. This opens new possibilities for tire building productivity and the construction of equipment used in this application.

Quality tires are made on quality...
