Cambridge International rolls out heavy-duty Duraflex belt.What is billed as the most open metal belt available that does not compromise strength has been introduced by Cambridge Cambridge, city, Canada Cambridge (kām`brĭj), city (1991 pop. 92,772), S Ont., Canada, on the Grand River, NW of Hamilton. It was formed in 1973 with the amalgamation of Galt, Hespeler, and Preston, all founded in the early 19th cent. International. The patent-pending Duraflex[TM] metal conveyor belting conveyor belt One of various devices that provide mechanized movement of material, as in a factory. Conveyor belts are used in industrial applications and also on large farms, in warehousing and freight-handling, and in movement of raw materials. is said to handle heavier loads than typical light-duty conveyor belts, while remaining cleanable and open--thus ideal for many food processing Food processing is the set of methods and techniques used to transform raw ingredients into food for consumption by humans or animals. The food processing industry utilises these processes. applications. Retrofitting units is simple, as Duraflex belting works with virtually any existing support bed configuration. The design also reduces maintenance and downtime The time during which a computer is not functioning due to hardware, operating system or application program failure. because it can be spliced in as little as 30 seconds without welding welding, process for joining separate pieces of metal in a continuous metallic bond. Cold-pressure welding is accomplished by the application of high pressure at room temperature; forge welding (forging) is done by means of hammering, with the addition of heat. or the use of special tools. Cambridge engineers have created an easy and fast technique to splice tiffs belt. A replacement rod slides into the edge of the belt from the side. Next, the pre-clinched rod hooks over the small tab that sticks out of the sides--and it's done. Another important benefit of the design relates to the small diameter drive rolls or sprockets that are used with Duraflex belting. These allow for extremely tight transfers, thereby reducing product damage and loss of even small delicate products. For more information, visit www.cambridge-intl.com/duraflex. |
