Step 1: Baking the Tortilla

Every quesadilla is built on the foundation of a well-baked tortilla, setting the stage for taste and texture. While the dough bakes inside the oven, the transition into and out of that high-heat environment must be smooth and reliable. Duratemp belts are perfect for this job. Built to handle extreme temperatures after product baking, these belts maintain stability, protect food safety, and offer long service life with easy splicing. That means smooth operations for manufacturers and a tortilla that delivers the texture and taste consumers expect.

Step 2: Cooling with Care

Once tortillas come out of the oven, they need to depan and cool before moving to the next step. This stage may look simple, but it requires belts that balance airflow with gentle handling. The uni Flex OSB belt helps tortillas cool evenly while avoiding damage or sticking. With the right belt in place, every tortilla is ready for the next stage without compromising quality.

Step 3: Adding the Toppings

Finally, we add toppings to turn that tortilla into a quesadilla. For many manufacturers, this includes chicken or other protein toppings, which demand hygienic handling and smooth, precise placement. MIR Belting’s Soliflex Center Drive belt delivers a hygienic, easy-to-clean surface that eliminates fabric layers where bacteria can hide. Its positive drive design ensures reliable performance without slipping, so every topping is placed exactly where it should be.

From Raw Dough to Delicious Results

From the moment dough enters the oven to the final step of topping and assembly, MIR Belting keeps production moving with solutions made for every need. Our belts are built for safety, efficiency, and reliability so manufacturers can focus on what they do best: creating quesadillas that bring joy to tables everywhere.

This National Quesadilla Day, we celebrate not just the final product but also the belting solutions that make it possible. At MIR Belting, we call that #BeltingSolved.
