Application in food processing

It's not only raw bakery products that present machine manufacturers in the food sector with considerable challenges. If two conveyor belts are joined together with a butt joint, the radii of the rollers create a gap between the two belts. The risk: sensitive products, such as raw pasta, simply slip into the gap between the conveyor belts.

To transfer these products safely from belt to belt, the belt deflection of the conveyor belts and the gap between the belts must be kept as small as possible.
