These are the most versatile and widely used oven bands. They are suitable for crackers, hard biscuits and rotary moulded products, in fact all types of biscuits except soft cookies with high fat contents, where the dough will flow into the holes in the mesh. The wire mesh bands allow convective air to pass through, heating the base of the dough pieces.
These wire mesh bands are normally made from carbon steel wire coils which are linked together. The links give a flat surface to the band and good flexibility. Alternative materials are available for special applications, for example stainless steel wire mesh bands may be used where the baking process has very high humidity for products such as cheesecake.
Metal belts for baker furnaces «Z belt»
JoYa’s metal « Z » belts are designed to meet the specific requirements of biscuit makers using feed through ovens. They are long lasting and maintenance is quick and simple. Belts are made of carbon steel or stainless steel – on special request – and can be made with a width of more than 1.5 meter and lengths up to 300 meters.
Features and benefits
4 types of belts to meet specific needs of the baking industry
Lightweight, reduced size and thickness
Low heat inertia, good air circulation
High quality, high strength. Edges are looped for greater flexibility and a better contact with drums – even of small diameters. Edge finish prevents the belt from being damaged by side guides and blades.
Innovative manufacturing method that provides a perfect alignment of wires for larger open space into the meshes for the same strength. This is key for providing a quick and even baking and helps to keep the belt cleaned.
Range of metal belts
Z47 is the best in class product used in large installations with high output (speeds up to 30 m/min). Open space in the mesh allows good air circulation during baking process.
Z47R is a Z47 belt featuring an improved shear resistance for a longer life cycle and intensive use. It requires a higher heat during baking process.
Z28 has a reduced wire thickness that requires less heat during baking process for improved savings. High temperature is not recommended. Designed for length of 100 m.
On special demand: Z28R for heavy duty applications. Thanks to the small hole into the mesh, the Z28R belt allows soft dough baking.
Typical Applications:
Cooking
Heating
Baking
Elevating
De-Elevating
