Homogeneous Belts

Exceptionally hygienic and durable The hydrolysis-resistant polyurethane conveyor belts of the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts offer extremely strong resistance to oils, greases, moisture and bacteria.

They are the ideal choice for all processing steps involving unpackaged food.

Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts are made of high-quality thermoplastic polyurethane. They are very easy to clean and are printing and packaging machinery products developed for food processing applications with extremely high hygiene requirements. All series can optionally be fitted with guide profiles and sidewalls to suit the conveying task at hand.

Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts offer a wide range of application possibilities.

Monty (MONTY) Homogeneous Belt Flat Belt Series Flat (FLT) The non-reinforced (MONTY) flat belts are made using the simplest splicing method (heated butt-end splicing, see splicing technology), ensuring compliance with hygiene standards. They offer excellent running performance and retain their elasticity over the long term, making them easy to tension.

Flat (FLT)

They have high lateral rigidity, which means they can be used on S-shaped conveyors to achieve incline conveying at steep angles.

Flat Pro (FLT+)

Flat Pro (FLT+) The Pro model (FLT+) has para-aramid cords embedded longitudinally. The para-aramid cords increase the tensile force and reduce the belt's elongation to a minimum. This makes these belts particularly suitable for longer conveying routes and higher loads. Another advantage of the reinforced FLT series is a higher k1% value combined with low elongation. Compared with the non-reinforced models common on the market, the higher k1% value can significantly increase the belt's load capacity and ensures dimensional stability.

The advantages the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belt flat belts (reinforced and non-reinforced) bring you Flexible, robust and durable: We use high-quality raw materials and manufacture the belts with great care, so the products exhibit excellent hygienic and mechanical properties. Compliant and safe: All (MONTY) flat belt products comply with the latest FDA and EU regulations.

Easy to clean: (MONTY) flat belts are conveyor belts made of hydrolysis-resistant polyurethane with a closed, smooth surface, making them very easy to clean. Short cleaning intervals, UVC sterilization and mechanical belt cleaning do not damage them.

Specially tailored: (MONTY) flat belts can be fitted with guide profiles and sidewalls to meet the requirements of the conveying task.

Matte and smooth belt surfaces provide the necessary release properties. Flexible, robust and durable + compliant and safe + easy to clean + specially tailored = an extremely high level of hygiene at economical operating costs.

Fields of application The Flat and Flat Pro of the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts are designed for all processing steps, with an operating temperature range between -10 °C and +70 °C:

—Meat and poultry Fish

— Dairy products

— 

— Pasta products Monty (MONTY) Homogeneous Belt Splicing Equipment To keep a conveyor belt running smoothly and without obstruction, durable and easy-to-make splicing methods and practical tools are needed. The air-cooled Monty (MONTY) Heating Press is a heating press custom-made by us specifically for homogeneous conveyor belts.

It offers extremely high hygienic performance, reliability and durability. Its air-cooling function and easy-to-use control unit mean it is not only state-of-the-art in technology but also user-friendly. The two belt ends are slightly melted and then welded together. The belt body remains closed, so dirt such as bacteria cannot penetrate. Of course, Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts can also be spliced using mechanical fasteners. With mechanical fasteners, the belt can be replaced within a few minutes without having to dismantle parts of the conveyor. Interference with the production process is therefore minimal.

Guide Profiles and Sidewalls of the Monty (MONTY) Homogeneous Belts The guide profiles and sidewalls of the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts are indispensable in many applications.

They ensure the equipment runs safely and efficiently when conveying bulk goods. Their design has been adjusted to fully comply with strict hygiene requirements. Forbo products can therefore maintain hygiene and low losses during production and processing.

— Guide profiles Once Siegling Fullsan conveyor belts have been fitted with guide profiles (e.g. flights, longitudinal guide profiles) and sidewalls, they can be used in specific conveying and processing operations. Flights and sidewalls improve the belt's tractive force. Fullsan conveyor belts fitted with these flights are particularly suitable for conveying bulk and granular materials at inclined or steep angles. We tailor flights in various shapes and sizes to the specific conveying task. We have seven production centers worldwide with the necessary production equipment, including HF (high-frequency) welding tools for Positive Drive/Center Drive and accessories for processing guide profiles. Compared with other technologies (e.g. hot-gas welding, hot-wedge welding or impulse welding), HF welding produces noticeably stronger welds. These welds are not only strong but also airtight and watertight. HF welding is therefore the best choice for applications with high requirements for service life and sealing.

— — Flights (PU-flights) To meet special requirements, polyurethane flights can be fitted on the carrying side of MONTY conveyor belts.

We offer a suitable model for every application. These flights come in various models: SF-T, SF-SB (Short Bent), SF-B (Bent), SF-SS (Small Scoop) and SF-S (Scoop). "SF" is the abbreviation of "small foot". The design of the flights takes hygiene requirements into account. The rounded edges make them easy to clean, and they comply with the hygiene standards recommended by various bodies. The heights of the flights range from 25 mm (1 inch) to 150 mm (6 inches), in increments of 1 inch each.

— — Longitudinal guide profiles (longitudinal profiles) The function of longitudinal guide profiles is to guide the belt to center, or to hold down the belt in the concave sections of gooseneck conveyors or Z-shaped conveyors.

Fullsan conveyor belts can optionally be fitted with polyurethane longitudinal guide profiles (K-profiles) in various sizes (K6, K10, K13, K15 and K17).

— — Sidewalls To prevent bulk goods from falling off the side during transport, sidewalls are often used together with flights.

A characteristic of this product is that the sidewalls and flights are welded onto the belt with special equipment, leaving almost no gap between them.

— Depending on the belt height, the following models are available: Sidewalls with a 40 mm pitch, suitable for "Center Drive" conveyor belts (height up to 150 mm)

— Sidewalls with a 24.68 mm pitch, suitable for 1-inch "Positive Drive" conveyor belts (height up to 75 mm) Sidewalls with a 49.5 mm pitch, suitable for 2-inch "Positive Drive" conveyor belts (height up to 150 mm)

— HACCP conveyor belts How the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts benefit your HACCP concept: In the interest of those responsible for manufacturing or processing in the food processing industry, all hygiene risks should be excluded.

— 

If any bacteria, foreign matter or other contamination enters the product, it can lead to incalculable losses. Every preventive measure must therefore be taken to ensure compliance with hygiene regulations and the HACCP concept. Exceptionally hygienic conveyor belts: Thanks to the polyurethane thermoplastic belt design with a homogeneous belt body, the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts provide the best protection against contamination by oils, greases, moisture and bacteria.

Because the belt body surface is closed, the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts have superior easy-clean and product-release properties.

— — HACCP-compliant and safe All Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belt products comply with current FDA, EU and MHLW regulations, ensuring first-class food production safety and continuously supporting the HACCP concept. The products' declarations of compliance support your food safety concept and confirm that the Monty (MONTY) homogeneous belts are suitable for direct contact with food.

— — HACCP consulting Not only that, we also provide you with comprehensive service and support worldwide.

We have many years of experience and expertise in food hygiene and safety. If you have any questions about hygiene compliance, please contact us.
