interpack/Germany 2017: Habasit presents timing belts for the packaging industry

Quick belt changes, cleaning and safe operation: Habasit, the leading provider of conveyor, processing, and power transmission belts is presenting its portfolio for packaging technology at the interpack trade fair 2017 in hall 3, booth B49. HabaSYNC® timing belts will be on display as one of the most versatile and successful products yet introduced by the company.

Reinach/Switzerland, April 2017 – From May 4th-10, Düsseldorf will be hosting interpack 2017, one of the world’s largest trade fairs in food packaging. Presenting solutions for every stage of the supply chain, hundreds of exhibitors will explore the evolving market demands and rapidly advancing trends in the industry.

Habasit will also be pleased to exhibit their latest designs, materials and devices. With over 70 years of experience in the belting industry, Habasit is familiar with the wide variety of clients’ specific needs. It is not a business where one size fits all. Finding the perfect fit for every conceivable application is what keeps Habasit engineers researching, developing and pushing products to the cutting edge.

The packaging industry is no exception. Even if the merchandise often stays the same, the packaging is always being reinvented to instill the product with fresh glamour and appeal. Even the classic Coca-Cola, a taste we all recognize, is a bottle that has seen a long series of evolutions.

With each development, there are new application requirements, and new designs to reduce waste, or to reimagine the transportation of the latest shapes and sizes. The capability to meet each challenge with specific results has long set Habasit apart as the benchmark of the industry for fabricating custom-made surfaces, selecting appropriate belt covers and offering the most efficient and effective accessories.

A wide range of solutions

HabaSYNC® timing belts will be on display as one of the most versatile and successful products yet introduced by the company. With its extensive range of covers, fabrications, and accessories, it is often the ideal choice to enhance the performance of a packaging machine, or to build a new one.

Covers for timing belts are available in a variety of sizes and materials to provide the widest range of solutions for any kind of need. Depending on the requirements of the client, the cover can be adapted for shock absorption, gentle handling, ease of release, high abrasion or heat resistance as well as antistatic features. Process techniques such as grinding, teeth removal, milling grooves, and drilling holes or milling slots in the belt and cover, can all create new possibilities for every application.

Thermoplastic profiles can also be added to improve transport and product placement. Furthermore, the false tooth mounting technology allows the option of mechanically attaching any kind of profile or device to the belt.

Other available accessories include integrated guide belts, weld-on tracking guides and our patented Hinge Joint, a mechanical timing belt fastener which makes for fast and easy replacement or repair of any timing belt.
