YDINS custom timing belts for packaging processes: a key element in production efficiency
In the packaging industry, production lines need to be fast, accurate, and adaptable to a wide variety of products. In this context, custom-made conveyor belts have become a fundamental element in ensuring the efficiency, safety and reliability of the packaging process.
Why custom timing belts are the best choice for packaging
Packaging operations involve the transport of products that can vary in shape, weight, texture and hygienic conditions. Using standard belts in this environment means accepting limitations that have a direct impact on the efficiency of the line. For example:
- Transporting unstable products: If the belt does not have the proper grip, products can slip or move out of place, affecting correct packaging.
- Difficulties in synchronization: If the belt is not well adapted, the products do not arrive at each machine (dosing machine, labeling machine, etc.) at the right time, causing packaging errors.
- Frequent stops: An improper belt can easily fail or mismatch, forcing the line to be stopped to correct problems.
Ydins custom belts, on the other hand, are designed taking into account all critical process variables, such as product type, line speed, environmental conditions, and integration with other machines, ensuring more accurate and reliable transportation.
Key customizable elements for packaging lines
- Technical coatings
In packaging processes, it is essential that the belt has the right degree of adhesion according to the type of product. That is why coatings are applied that prevent containers from slipping or sticking to the belt, even when they are wet, hot or have product residues.
- Studs and profiles
Blocks are especially useful in packaging lines where it is necessary to move products precisely, carry them up ramps or keep them separate. Its shape, size and location are adjusted to the type of container to ensure safe dragging without damaging the contents.
- Custom machining
The belts can include perforations or grooves adapted to positioning, sensing or vacuum systems. This is key for high-precision tasks such as filling, automatic labelling or sealing, where the stability and alignment of the container are critical.
- Food and pharmaceutical compliance
In food or medical device packaging lines, belts must comply with regulations such as FDA or EU 1935/2004. Safe, easy-to-clean, and disinfectant-resistant materials are used, ensuring hygiene without compromising performance.
Direct benefits of customization
- Greater stability of the product throughout the journey.
- Reduced waste, by preventing misalignments or falls.
- Increased production speed without sacrificing accuracy.
- Less maintenance, as the belt works optimally from day one.
Adaptation as a competitive advantage
Belt customization is not a luxury, but a necessity for those looking to optimize each link in the packaging chain. Every package, every type of product and every type of line requires a specific solution. Betting on custom-made belts.
