Common Belt Issues and How ZipLink® Solves Them
Problem 1: Frequent Belt Failures
Abrasive sanding in wood processing and high heat drying in gypsum cause traditional belts to wear out quickly or fail.
Solution:
ZipLink® belts use reinforced rubber compounds like XNBR, NBR, and silicone to create a continuous, splice-less design with an integrated spiral connection that delivers consistent strength and durability, even in the toughest conditions. Read the full case study here.
Problem 2: Inconsistent Belt Tracking and Misalignment
Misaligned belts cause jams, damage products, and increase uneven wear.
Solution:
ZipLink’s® stable construction ensures uniform tension and consistent tracking, minimizing realignment needs and maintaining smooth, uninterrupted conveyor flow. Read the full case study here.
