Whether baking, cooling or enrobing, the right conveyor belt must be carefully selected to prevent products with very compact dimensions from falling off. Our customer used a rod network belt in an existing cooling line. Now very small biscuits were to be transported, but even with the smallest dimensions of a bar mesh belt, products could fall through the openings. As a solution, our sales representative Frank Herold recommended that the customer replace the rod network belt with a wide spiral link belts with a small pitch and pitch. Due to the small pitch of the wide spiral link belts, biscuits could no longer fall through, making production more efficient.
