Teflon Fabrics

PTFE coated Glass Fabric for Conveyor Belting Most belts are made from electrical, premium or standard grade fabrics, especially where fabric weave impression is undesirable or where sticky or gummy materials are being conveyed. Industrial and mechanical grade PTFE coated conveyor belts are preferred where economy is more important than maximum resistance to chemicals or solvents. Crease and tear resistant PTFE coated conveyor belts are suggested for higher speeds such as for packaging belts. Closed weave porous belts and open mesh PTFE belts are specified for applications where porosity is required as in drying applications (e.g. textile dryer belts) or microwave cooking ovens. Our anti-static range is used where static build up may occur such as in fuse press applications.  

Screen Printing PTFE coated glass fabrics GCTC is the market leader in Teflon conveyor belts, which are suitable for use in various ovens and curing equipment. Our company uses the professional equipment built by our own engineering team to custom design and produce all our belts. The main material type used in these styles of conveyor belts is PTFE-coated open mesh. The mesh size ranges from 1mm to 5mm openings, of which 4mm is our most common. We can specify the standard brown or antistatic black type, depending on the type of dryer they are installed. We produce belts with a maximum width of 5000mm in a mesh size of 4mm, which allows us to provide belts for most machine width conveyors on the market today. We have installed many types of fasteners for conveyor-specific belts, including helical metal and soft materials, as well as Kevlar shaped bull nose rings. Both designs can achieve a strong joint and have maximum airflow, thereby maximizing the dryness of the entire belt surface. Our Teflon conveyor belt can run in an environment of 260 ° C, and can use UV, IR and hot-air drying methods as the heat source. We can provide a variety of different belt guide anti-overflow practice options, which can be installed on the edge of the belt to help constant belt positioning in the dryer. These anti-pass devices and practices are related to cost and usage, and can be specified in the design stage.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts The fabric ends are cut in a finger pattern, matched together, then hot pressed. With this kind of joint, the weld length is decisive for the tensile strength. The joint part is quite flat, and it has a good result in the transporting article that require a flat joint. Application industries including apparel fusion machines, food conveyors (ex. egg crust, Mexican crust pre-cooking automation equipment), electronic parts, etc.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts The ends of the fabric are skived to a wedge shape, one end of the belt from the top, the other from the underside, and bonded together using PFA film, heat and pressure. This is a very strong welding method, and offer a very smooth transition for the product to run on the machine.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts Mechanical fasteners join or fasten two objects together mechanically. They are used in places where conveyor belts must be changed regularly or for applications where the belt needs to be replaced quickly. However, the mechanical fastener is a vulnerable part of the belt and may have openings where dirt can enter, so this is not a preferred solution for many applications.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts Butt joint is made by placing the two ends of a belt together and applying a certain wide piece of material underneath. This is then welded together ensuring the top surface is neat. Butt Belt Joints tend to be manufactured prior to fitting on the machine and are manufactured using a strap on the underside to offer additional strength. This method is a simple but very effective on making a belt endless at customer’s site. In the meantime, it can be an idea for machine isn’t easy to unassembled for belt replacement.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts With pre-inserted staples and a one-piece strip design, which Hinged and Stapled Fasteners makes splicing quick and easy (allows for quicker installation and easy change). The joint portion is flexible and it is made with special plastic material which allows you to use it in a certain high temperature environment, please contact us for more details.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts A castellated joint is made by creating interlocking loops from PTFE coated Kevlar materials. The two ends can then be connected together with a metal or peek pin. This method is easy to install on the machine while it has a feature of more flat than spiral peek joint method.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts Overlap Belt Joints – Overlap joints are a simple and easy joint to use where having an even surface is not critical. Overlap splices are the most popular type used in the industry and can be enhanced with molding for food processing applications. Overlap ranges from 25 mm to 140mm, with directional belt angles of 30, 45, 60, and 90 degrees. This type of joint can easy be made on a machine where the belt needs to be fitted onsite.

Joining methods for Teflon Conveyor belts & power transmission belts We recommend the overlapped finger joint. As in this case, the ends to be joined are split into layers. Next, fingers are punched into the ends, which are then tacked together and welded under pressure and heat into an endless belt. Again, the double-layer fabric is applied from the beginning to the end, using high temperature and pressure, so the tensile strength of the belt will be improved and it is especially suitable for conveyors with small wheel diameters, such as continuous sealing machinery and toilet paper packaging machinery.  

Edging reinforcement and Tracking types GCTC provide most of kinds of processing solutions to strengthen the edge of the conveyor belt, mainly to provide the anti-resistance feature and service life time of the belt. The most common way is to use a Teflon film to cover the edge for 1- inch width, and then place under the laminating machine with high temperature and pressure to cover the edge perfectly. Alternative way is using a piece of glass Fiber fabrics sewing onto the edges. To prevent direction shift t you can choose Kevlar or silicone rope to form the guide rope and sew it at a distance of 1/2" from the edge. This is a customized option. The following pictures and abbreviations are available for your reference. Edge reinforcement - Teflon Glass Fabric Edging Tracking Kevlar Rope Silicone Tracking Rope Tracking Eyelet
