DuraFab®, DuraLam® and DuraFlow® fabrics are used to manufacture an extensive line of belts and fabricated parts ranging in thickness from .003” to over .060”. Available with fiberglass, Kevlar® and Nomex® substrates, these products are fabricated in widths ranging from ¼” up to 141” (certain fabric styles only). The normal operating temperatures for these belts are from –100°F to 550°F (–73°C to 288°C). While not all-inclusive, the following are some typical applications for AFC’s DuraFab®, DuraLam® and DuraFlow® belts and fabricated parts:
Rotary band sealing
Over wrapping/tray packing
Manufacture of tortillas, pizza crusts and pitas
Baking and cooling of bakery goods and confectionary
Cooking and grilling of meat, poultry, fish and vegetables
Garment fusing
Manufacture of carpet mats
Manufacture of specialty wood products
Tank seals and contaminant barriers
Tissue side sealing
Drying of meat, fish poultry, spices, fruit and vegetables
Drying and curing of screen printed paper, metal, glass, wood, plastic and textiles
Did You Know?
AFC can perforate belts and fabric up to 100” wide.
PTFE vs. Stainless Steel and Modular Plastic Belting
Lower Maintenance Costs: PTFE belts are non-stick and easy to clean
Energy Savings: PTFE belts provide better heat transfer and absorb less energy
Cost Savings: PTFE belts are less expensive to purchase and, due to their low relative mass, can be operated utilizing a simpler, less expensive pulley and drive system
