Tire conveying systems.

This company has developed tire conveyance solutions to equip all areas of the tire plant, from millroom to final finish. With the introduction of the TRT transverse roller top belt, the company is said to replace problematic, high-maintenance logistical systems in the final finish area with no-maintenance, no-downtime, straightforward solutions. Many modem tire plants are said to have based their entire final finish tire handling system on the company's TRT solution, achieving greater reductions in downtime and maintenance. The Series 1700 Flush Grid Nub Top belt for dip tank applications is said to provide excellent backside coverage with a minimal 8% contact area between the rubber slab and the belt on dip tanks. The Nub Top pattern of the belt surface, with 37% open area, minimizes air entrapment and reduces foaming, according to the company. This abrasion fighter system is said to diminish maintenance costs and unscheduled downtime, and has a guaranteed life span of 2.5 times longer than any other belt solution, according to the company.
