Case study - Almonds

Company:

Snacks & Nuts

Application:

Almonds Processing

Challenge:

Regular PU belts were breaking down
within 6 to 9 months on blanchers,
where constant belt temperatures can
reach 130 ˚ F/55 ˚ C , and daily chemical
washdowns are part of the operational routine.

Solution:

✔ Volta FDR -SD-V1 Positive Drive Belt.

Durable solutions for harsh conditions of constant heat and daily chemical washdowns.

Result:

✔ Extended Belt Lifespan:

FDR-SD-V1 belts demonstrated exceptional durability, lasting much longer than regular PU belts, even in conditions with constant heat and daily washdowns.

Dough Pump Conveyors

Dough pump conveyors are used to process raw dough in large-scale production bakeries.

These conveyors elevate dough at a sharp incline and commonly use plied belts with bottom guides. Due to uneven loads, bakery belts often suffer from off-tracking, and slippage, which can cause fraying, tearing and the need for belt tension, leading to belt failure. A retrofit to
SuperDrive™ solves all of that, making raw dough production… as easy as pie.
