Habasit Markets High Friction GripTop Radius Belt
M2540 GripTop 1" keeps food products moving along
Habasit, the world's leading lightweight conveyor belt manufacturer, introduced the M2540 Radius GripTop 1", a new HabasitLINK® plastic modular belt.
The M2540 Radius GripTop 1" combines a sideflexing modular belt with a high-friction rubber overlay. This belt is ideal for general material handling applications where steep inclines and declines - in combination with turns - are required or where the centrifugal forces of fast running belts tend to displace or disorient conveyed products. It is particularly well suited for the transport of boxes, crates, newspaper or wrapped and unwrapped food products.
The M2540 Radius GripTop 1" offers the largest high friction rubber contact surface available in the industry.
In addition to the general advantages of the patented M2540 product line, including the Radius Flush Grid and Roller Top belts, the M2540 Radius GripTop 1" is the strongest 1" pitch plastic Radius belt available. With an open area of 20 percent and a collapse factor of 2.2 (Inner radius of the belt = 2.2 times the width of the belt). The M2540 Radius GripTop 1" allows longer conveyor lengths, eliminating the need for additional conveyors and drive motors. As a result, the displacement or disorientation of product as it is transferred from one conveyor to the next is prevented.
The M2540 Radius GripTop 1" is driven by universal 1" sprockets which are also suitable for more than ten other M2500 1" HabasitLINK® belt types - a feature unique to Habasit that helps customers greatly simplify the complexity of their plant's modular belt inventory and maintenance. GripTop and standard modules may be combined in one belt. Side guards and hold-down tabs are also available.
The M2540 GripTop 1" is available in the following FDA-conforming combinations:
o white Polypropylene material - white abrasion-resistant rubber,
o grey Polypropylene material - black abrasion-resistant rubber.
