 SPIRAL AND WIRELINK BELTS
Applications/ features
The spiral belt is the ‘mother of all metal belts’ and has
a virtually infinite number of versions and applications,
from super-strong (for heavy loads over large widths or very
hot products) to very dense weaves for small products, unsorted
goods or products requiring stable support. The belts have
a perfectly round end, even with a small radius, for a good
product transfer to the following stage of the process. From
transport in glass furnaces and kilns to decorative dividers
in architecture, spiral wirelink belts provide a solution
for the most complex applications.
Versions
Spiral wirelink belts can be divided into three main groups:
- Without pins
- With corrugated pins
- With straight pins
Basic forms
1. Harmonica mesh (type HA) for light products or decorative applications.
2. Spiral belt woven on one side (type SP)
3. Corrugated wirelink belt, alternately woven left and right for a straight run (type GS)
4. Straight wirelink (type RS)
5. ‘Rod reinforced’ structure specifically for applications at temperatures up to 1200 °C (type RR)
6. ‘Compound belt’ with additional pins and spirals for a very densely woven belt (type CB)
Side finishing
1. With looped edges (can easily be made endless)
2. Or welded (small links that cannot be bent)
3. Fitted with chains
Spiral belts are available in a wide range of materials: not only ferrous metals but also non-ferrous and combinations in a single belt. Also available in various heat-resistant metal types.
Drives
 
The belt is driven by friction rollers over the entire width
of the belt or positively with sprockets in the case of GS
belts. The drive is perfectly suited to the application and
belt used.
Options
 
Spiral wirelink belts can be equipped with edge plates and/or
flights. The pins can be bent upwards in some types, resulting
in a standing edge.
