Conveyor belts are made to order
CarrySmart is a novel made-to-order line of conveyors from Wire Belt, a leading developer of advanced belting solutions.
The lighter weight and lower mass, along with an open mesh framework, improve energy efficiency.
Engineered with a 70% open surface area, the belt suits processes in which product coating, drainage and liquid or air circulation are factors.
Its open stainless steel design is for cooking operations such as frying and baking as well as for cooling freshly baked or freshly fried products in high-volume, high-throughput processes.
The increased open area also makes it easier to clean and maintain.
Offering a much tighter wrap capability than most friction drive balanced weave metal belt configurations, the Compact Grid allows for improved conveyor-to-conveyor transfers, reducing the chance for product yield loss in high speed processing operations.
Its rugged construction increases strength under significant loads, lessening the time needed to maintain the conveying system and reducing the number of belt replacements over time.
When the time to replace a belt arrives, installation is quick and easy.
