Rod Network Conveyor Belts are also known as Enrober conveyor belts. The rod network conveyor belt is constructed by several loop wires and then be formed a different edge. The simple structure makes it economical and lightweight. It can help to save costs and reduce downtime.

Rod Network Conveyor Belts are used in many industries. The belts have a lightweight single-layer construction and are positively driven by sprockets. Rod Network Conveyor Belts are made of stainless steel wire of spring wire. Wire diameters vary from 0.8 to 3.0 mm. Pitches from 4 mm until 2000 mm, and belt widths from 10 mm until 3 meters, also we can make all the (non-standard) dimensions too.
The Rod Network Conveyor Belts have an open structure (70 – 86 % open) and are frequently used in cooling, baking, drying, heating, decorating, battering and packing machines for light products. The Rod Network Conveyor Belts can be made for straight conveyors and for curve conveyors.
We can not only provide right belts, but also provide matching sprockets and other components.
Rod Network Conveyor Belts advantages:
• The largest proportion of open-mesh area available up to 86%
• Easy to clean, clean-in-place design • No-slip, positive drive • Very low belt mass • Smallest diameter end rolls and drive rolls • Positive driven for accurate tracking
• Curved rod network belt to suit different machines
Methods of endlessly connecting rod network conveyor belts:
Rod Network Conveyor Belts are normally driven by toothed sprockets, made of stainless steel or plastic. These sprockets are made to fit the belt and are adapted to the diameter you wish.

Edge Availability Rod Network Conveyor Belts are available in three edge Loop Types. 1.With a C-shaped Edge, reduce the ratio of catching and tangling by the belt edge. 2.With a Single Loop Edge, the most popular wire mesh belt edge finish. It is available for wire diameter 1.27 mm or above 3.With a Double Loop Edge, supplied for enrober belts.
Diverse combinations of pitch, wire diameter, mesh length and side finishing create a wide range of fit-for-purpose wire mesh conveyor belts.

The Rod Network Conveyor Belts are frequently used
in installations whereby food products undergo a certain process. You could
thereby think of Garden / steaming / cooking / baking / frying / grilling but
also of draping with chocolate or sprinkling with pips and/or seeds. Flat Flex
Conveyor Belts are furthermore frequently used for take-over sets whereby
products move from one installation/transporter to the other.
Rod network conveyor belts are used in the
food industry for the production of the following products: small dessert, fish
products, pizza, vegetables, bread, flour, cakes, meat, candy, potatoes,
biscuits, chocolate, nuts, and fruit.
