Flour-Based Food Processing

Food conveyor belts are widely used in the food industry. Their main function is to transport and convey food, ensuring the smooth processing and transportation of food.

They are an efficient, continuous conveying tool, particularly suitable for material transport in food processing enterprises. Based on close partnerships with original equipment manufacturers and food producers, Monty offers a range of food conveyor belts. In addition to fabric conveyor belts, plastic modular belts, elastic conveyor belts, and synchronous drive belts, we also offer more products, such as non-standard customized solutions including sidewalls/flights and turn belts, and services such as on-site service. In addition to fabric conveyor belts, plastic modular belts, elastic conveyor belts, and synchronous drive belts, we also offer more products; hazard analysis is carried out on each link of the process and critical control points are determined, so that food safety hazards can be reduced to an acceptable level and continuously improved. The food conveyor belts we provide have excellent hydrolysis resistance, good release properties, a design using blue as a strong contrasting color, or sealed belt edges. When conveying bulk food, our food conveyor belts strictly comply with the relevant regulations for plastic products (European standards, FDA).

In the different processes of flour-based food production and processing, the results would be unimaginable without conveyor and processing belts. Monty provides the right belt for every step, suitable for different types of flour-based food.

For example, conveyor belts with a fabric tension member for laminators, plastic modular belts for cooling towers, or elastic conveyor belts for separation systems.

Various conveyor belt functions, such as good release properties, extremely high resistance to oil and grease, hydrolysis resistance, or easy cleanability, ensure reliable processing and guarantee excellent product quality.

Monty conveyor and processing belts are suitable for multiple applications in flour-based food processing, ensuring reliable product conveying. Monty Fullsan hydrolysis-resistant polyurethane conveyor belts have extremely strong resistance to oil, grease, moisture, and bacteria. They are the ideal choice for all processing steps involving unpackaged food.

Monty Fullsan – the excellent solution for even better hygiene. Forbo Siegling's Frayfree belts are specially designed so that virtually no fraying occurs at the belt edges. Special fiber and weave types and reinforced monofilament lengths ensure that no problems are caused by unsealed belt edges. The versatile product range is widely suitable for various applications and can fully meet the strict requirements of the food industry.

The edge sealing of belts with sealed body edges prevents oil, grease, and water, and thus prevents bacteria from entering the belt. The belt edges effectively prevent fraying. The successful application of this sealing method meets the strict hygiene requirements for conveyor belts made of synthetic materials with fabric tension members.

Polyurethane belt scrapers provide gentle and effective cleaning. Compared with rigid scrapers made of metal or hard plastic, Forbo Siegling scrapers not only treat the belt surface gently but also cause no damage to the splice area. The wear-resistant scrapers are available in different colors, and in metal-detectable (MD) versions.

Printing hygienic and permanent markings on the conveyor belt is a new way to improve the efficiency of automated processes.

A laser can engrave any shape or marking, and precise positioning will no longer be a problem from now on.

We offer a range of flight products meeting the requirements of the food industry, suitable for the inclined conveying of foods such as confectionery, flour, or sugar. These conveyor belts have extremely high oil/grease resistance and resistance to cleaning agents and disinfectants, ensuring safety.

Forbo Siegling cutting belts are specially designed with extremely high cut resistance, providing excellent performance even when food is cut on the belt surface. These HACCP belts are extremely durable and are an outstanding product offering excellent value for money.

Elastic conveyor belts made of urethane have uniformly high elasticity and are suitable for a variety of applications, such as dough dividers or weighing machines.

In addition to ideal tracking with little tendency to run off, Forbo Siegling's elastic conveyor belts also have good release properties, excellent troughability, and dimensional stability.

Release properties depend on the physical properties of the belt surface material, the surface pattern, and the type of product conveyed (oily or water-based).

Coating materials with extremely low surface tension have a natural anti-adhesion effect and are therefore a good choice for conveying sticky, sugar-containing products. Special surface patterns can influence product release. For any product, Forbo Siegling can recommend and provide the conveyor belt with the most suitable release properties.
