A.PIOVAN sanfor belt is manufacured with a totally innovative production system. Thanks to this, the belt presents the following benefits:
Standard thickness for denim and fabrics is 67 mm. We suggest not to exceed 71 mm of thickness in order to not increase too much tensions on the belt. For woven and knitted fabrics is available also the 51 mm thickness (for comfit machine).
To determine a proper belt width (A) we suggest starting from the widest measure of fabric to be shrunk (T), adding 150 mm of overall edge type distance (X), adding also the profile width from the edge (E) (depending on the king of edge preferred it could vary from 12 to 50 mm). In this way you have the correct rubber belt width to purchase. WIDTH (A)=T+150+E. It is advisable to have a minimum distance of belt from cylinder edge of 25 – 30 mm at least, considering its natural swinging.
After many years of study we have developed what we think is the best edge
for the sanfor belt. Its roundness both in the upper and lower part allow to
reduce friction of the belt with rollers, to reduce the surface in contact with the
hot roller so at the end to reduce possibility of side cracks.
The standard hardness of the sanfor belt is 38 SH. Depending on customer’s needs, N “harder” version is also available 41-42 SH).
A.Piovan supplies guidelines for a correct use and maintenance of the belt together with each belt delivered. We are strongly convinced that a good care of the belt during its working life it’s the best way to improve the belt performance and lifetime.
