Abstract: A method for joining a belt having a reinforcement structure having a plurality of spirals connected to each other by transverse wires includes compressing the belt along two transverse compression zones and extracting a transverse wire while the belt is being compressed along the transverse compression zones.
Abstract: A belt includes at least one fabric having a first face and a second face parallel to a longitudinal plane of the belt, wherein the fabric includes: a first weft layer formed by a plurality of multifilament weft yarns essentially parallel to each other; a second weft layer formed by a plurality of monofilament weft yarns essentially parallel to each other, wherein the multifilament weft yarns of the first weft layer are overlapped with respective monofilament weft yarns of the second weft layer; and a plurality of multifilament warp yarns wherein the fabric has a weft dominance satin weave on both sides.
Abstract: A conveyor belt comprising a first longitudinal belt portion and a second longitudinal belt portion having respective transport surfaces with coefficients of friction different from each other.
