Conveyor belt gets the blues
The Habasit Belting Division of Habasit Rossi has introduced a conveyor belt with a blue Habilene coating for the food market. Part of the polyolefine-coated Cleanline range, it is designed to improve the release properties of sticky foodstuffs.
The colour blue rarely exists in foodstuffs, so by using a blue belt, foreign particles can be easily detected in almost any food product, says Habasit. In addition, remaining food residues become far more visible.
Other benefits include significantly improved product visibility. And because blue material is less reflective than smooth white surfaces, there is far less interference with optoelectronic process line equipment devices.
Blue-coated conveyor belts have been steadily gaining a higher share in bakery, biscuit, dairy, meat, fish and poultry processing.
