Our ECO rod network belts are a practical and cost-effective solution for many applications. These belts are characterised by precise, maintenance-free belt tracking and small deflection radii, meaning that even the smallest products can be transported. Conveyor belts made of bar mesh are also particularly hygienic and therefore ideal for foodstuffs.

Changeover: ECO with gear wheel edge to ECO without gear wheel edge
We manufacture our rod network belts with and without gear wheel edges. This is a small mesh that reinforces the belt in the side area and stabilises the conveyor belt.
However, these reinforcing meshes are not always necessary and can even be a nuisance with endless splicing. In some cases, it is therefore advisable to switch to a rod network belt without gear wheel edges. This simplifies and speeds up the splice considerably.
