Ashworth Omni-Flex 3 x 1 conveyor belt

Ashworth Omni-Flex 3 x 1 has been added to the Omni-Flex turn-curve conveyor belt range. The belt is said to build on the strength and reliability of the Omni-Flex belt design to create a rugged, strong, lightweight belt that maximises throughput.

By creating 3 x 1″ openings, the company has reduced the weight of the belt without making any additional changes to the belt design. The 3 x 1 belt is suitable for applications where belt weight limits the ability to increase product loading. The reduced belt weight makes this a more economical alternative for conveying products in applications where similar flex-style belts with smaller openings have traditionally been used. The increased opening size helps reduce dwell times and makes this belt easier to clean, reducing sanitation costs.

By retaining the original design of the Omni-Flex belt, no sprocket changes or transfer modifications are required when replacing an existing Omni-Flex belt with the 3 x 1 belt. The company says similar flex-style belts offered by other companies often require modifications, increasing retrofit costs.

The belt is available in widths up to 48″ - with even wider widths available after a system review.

The belt is suitable to cool, proof and freeze pan, trayed or larger products.
