Production lines of building materials are high output with little time for breakdowns. The products are highly abrasive and traditional fast-wearing rubber belts release belt fragments into the powders and clay used as raw materials. Volta equips many ceramic tile and roof tile companies with round, V and flat belts as well as fabricated flat belts to provide long-lasting solutions that eliminate contamination of powders and carry tiles with limited wear and tear. Long, steep elevators can use Volta positive drive belts where breakdowns involve days of maintenance and repair work.
