Siegling Transilon for light materials handling ...
Under the Siegling Transilon brand name, Forbo Siegling created a product line of over 110 standard and several hundred special types consistently geared to market demands. Many types are the result of development activities carried out in cooperation with users and original equipment manufacturers.
From rugged “jacks-of-all-trades” to high-tech “specialists”: the Siegling Transilon product line offers a wide range of types for the most varied of conveying tasks in all industries, while at the same time also carrying out processing tasks. Special literature is available for many of the topics and industries mentioned in this brochure.
The conditions under which conveyor and power transmission belts are used are seldom identical. So when using Siegling Transilon, take advantage of the experience and competence of your Forbo Siegling consultant.
... for the most varied of conveying and processing tasks
Horizontal conveying
Even a conveying task which seems quite simple can require a whole host of belt properties. Forbo Siegling has the best belt type for various goods, conveying speeds, reversing systems, stop & go and accumulation conveying, and other operating conditions. Some examples of the diverse features of Siegling Transilon include:
– troughable to particularly laterally stiff types
– exceptionally low-noise to flame-retardant
– pyrolysis-resistant to suitability for conveying unpackaged food
– non-antistatic to highly conductive and ATEX-approved
– surfaces suitable for accumulation conveying and especially good grip.
Inclined conveying
Goods can be conveyed at an incline even on smooth belt surfaces. The conveying angle is dependent on a variety of factors such as the type of goods
being conveyed, the top face coating and external factors like dust, moisture, etc.
For large conveying angles and for the conveying of small pieces and bulk goods, Forbo Siegling offers patterned belts or belts equipped with lateral profiles.
Curved conveying
Curved belts from Forbo Siegling are suitable for use in conjunction with a diverse array of belt tracking systems and are in use on the conveyors of numerous major manufacturers.
Thanks to largely-automated fabrication, we guarantee strict adherence to the geometrical shapes and dimensions required when supplying finished belts.
Dividing curves into several segments makes for a favourable distribution of force vectors in the belt so even heavy goods can be carried without any problems.
Collection and distribution
When pushers and ploughs are used, the belt’s laterally stiff design guarantees that it will lie flat and continue to run in a straight line reliably. The lateral loading and discharge of goods is achieved by using very smooth, wear-resistant surfaces. Lateral sorters (e.g. carrier cells), on the other hand, require very thin, flexible belts whose surfaces have high coefficients of friction. Their special tension member construction means that they have very low energy consumption.
Processing belts
With Siegling Transilon, the gap is often bridged between the classical conveying function from “A” to “B” and an active function in the production process.
For example, in the textile industry our processing belts stack thin layers of web, in large bakeries they form balls of dough, in the wood industry they compress chip mat in the pre-press, in dairies milk is coagulated on the belts to form cheese.
Here are just a few examples of process operations.
