Loading large blocks onto a cleated elevator belt often results in damage to cleats. Plied belt cleats are unable to support the weight and fold backwards and eventually tear off the base belt, while inflexible modular cleats break. Volta cleats can support heavy weights without difficulty. Our experience in solving this task successfully has given us insights on how to support given loads on different angles of incline and when to use gussets to reinforce cleats. We have many options for Z elevators and vertical inclines. This cheese factory typically loads 20kg of cheese at a time per cleat.

The maintenance manager says: “Although a Volta belt is more expensive than the plied belt, at the end it turns out cheaper – because the cheap turned out to be expensive for us!”
