Cambridge Engineered Solutions Unveils CamEDGE, A Cageless Spiral System Conveyor Belt For The Baking Industry during Anuga Food Tech in Cologne, Germany in the recent past
As per reports Cambridge Engineered Solutions, the world’s largest metal conveyor belt manufacturer, has introduced CamEDGE, a new cageless spiral system conveyor belt primarily for the baking industry.
Positively driven and low in tension, CamEDGE is the strongest, edge-driven spiral system belt available. CamEDGE belts utilize a robust, well-supported drive link on the outer edges that reduces component flexing during sprocket engagement. This results in an extended belt life and less chance of component fatigue. Furthermore, the stainless steel belt’s hold-down tabs eliminate “Christmas treeing” (lifting) associated with traditional spiral designs which prevents the possibility of catastrophic failure. Designed predominantly for bakery operations like cooling and proofing processes, CamEDGE in combination with an edge-driven spiral system, allows plants to modernize and increase throughput.
When using CamEDGE in a cageless system, baked goods can enter and exit on the same plane which eliminates the need for transfer equipment and accessories. CamEDGE also delivers significant sanitary and maintenance benefits at a time when there is an increased focus on food safety throughout the world.
In addition these belts eliminate the need for an extra drive/motor (traditional spirals require two), use 40 percent less switches & 50 percent less bearings and associated grease is required.
