Ashworth Bros has released the Omni-Pro FlexLite conveyor belt that is a rugged, strong and lightweight belt for conveying pans, trays and large products. The belt is manufactured with the Omni-Pro link and utilises a very open 38 x 76 mm (fixed loop) flat wire overlay. The result is an efficient, lightweight belt with increased carrying capacity and a spiral/turn-curve tension rating of 180 kg for 100,000 cycles.
The open surface area - 90% in a straight run and 87% in spiral or turn-curve applications - is easy to clean and cools/freezes foods faster by improving air circulation. Turn ratios range from 1.6 to 2.5 and belt widths are available in even widths from 600 to 1500 mm.
The belt retains the same Omni-Pro design features that minimise cage bar wear, maintenance costs and downtime in demanding spiral applications.
The link design includes a ‘protrusion leg’ that prevents welds from contacting spiral cage bars and permits the belt to run more smoothly with less system wear. Each link is formed with a coining process to prevent break-in wear, reducing belt elongation and increasing belt life.
New weld technology has allowed Ashworth to produce cleaner and stronger welds. By eliminating traditional ‘bridge’ welding and utilising a 360° weld, the Omni-Pro FlexLite is capable of withstanding high loads, without failure. Unlike a traditional bridge weld, the 360° buttonless weld is free from surface imperfections and crevices which improve hygienic characteristics by eliminating bacteria entrapments.
