The MTF Multi-Tech conveyor belts in waterproof design are used wherever manufactured parts need to be cooled quickly or must fall into a water bath as part of the process.
In the plastics industry, these water conveyor belts are used where, for example, sink marks on thick-walled plastic parts need to be prevented. The parts fall – for example, from a plastic injection molding machine – directly into the water bath after demolding. This also prevents damage to the components from falling against each other. Furthermore, a shorter machine cycle time is sometimes possible because the parts can be demolded earlier. Conditioning water conveyors are used for the continuous pre-conditioning of plastic parts on or under the conveyor belt, which is immersed in water. The dwell time of the parts in the water can be set as desired. The conveyor system is designed to meet specific customer requirements. The waterproof conveyors are made of anodized aluminum. All rollers, bearings, clamping and connecting elements, etc., are made of plastic, stainless steel, or brass. Depending on the application, the water tanks can be offered in plastic or stainless steel. For belt conveyors installed in water tanks, the HE 020 type base frame is often used. It has a compact design and supports the belt body without taking up much space in the confined water tank. A wide variety of conveyor belts made of different materials with varying surface textures and properties from the MTF Technik standard range are available and can be mounted on these devices. Special belts can also be provided if required.
The Multi-Tech water conveyor belts type GLW-HE 020 can be equipped with different drive units, which, in combination with various gear reductions and controls, ensure optimal adaptation to the conveying task.
