Habasit conveyor and processing belts offer a large variety of application-driven cover materials and surface structures in several industry-suitable colors. The materials and designs are selected to cope with a broad range of application requirements, including resistance to wear or chemical agents, and to high or low temperatures. Furthermore, they maintain excellent stress-strain behavior through the use of carefully selected tension members.
While the term “conveyor belt” is used for belts that convey goods from one point to another, the name “processing belts” is used for belts that also fulfill key functions in the manufacturing process. Typical examples of processing belts include printing blankets for textile printing, or prepress belts in particle board production.
Habasit spindle tapes have been setting the benchmarks for spindle tapes for decades, and are in demand by customers all around the world. Habasit W-spindle tapes were developed through intensive cooperation with a leading machine manufacturer with bases in Switzerland, Japan, China and India. They feature the ability to handle spindle speeds over 20,000 rpm, no fiber fly accumulation, and a long and reliable service life.
