Sugar coating is common on soft jellies to prevent sticking. The product remains inherently sticky and the sugar releases a loose abrasive grit onto the machinery when handled in bulk. Volta was given the challenge of developing a solution for both issues and fabricated a 2” pitch DualDrive™ belt to replace the modular one that was clogged with product residue. A roof top texture was utilized on both the belt and the cleats to prevent adhesion as well as reducing the abrading motion between the sugar-coated product and the belt.
Best Belting for Safer Produce
The design of Volta belts ensures that our manufacturing and recycling industry customers spend more time meeting production targets, and less on downtime.
