In the process of food processing, such as vermicelli, cold skin, rice noodle, etc., traditional PU or Teflon conveyor belt often encounters problems such as sticking, high temperature resistance and easy aging, which leads to decreased production efficiency and increased maintenance cost.
Food-grade silicone conveyor belt is becoming the first choice of more and more manufacturers due to its advantages of high temperature resistance (-60℃~250℃), anti-sticking and easy cleaning.
How to choose the right silicone conveyor belt for vermicelli machine?
1. Select by thickness
1.5-2mm: light and thin type, suitable for low load, short distance transportation (such as cooling section).
3-5mm: thickened type, suitable for high temperature steaming and heavy duty vermicelli machine.
2. Choose according to surface treatment
Smooth surface: easy to release mold, suitable for finished vermicelli conveying.
Fine texture: anti-slip design, suitable for wet vermicelli initial molding stage.
3. Choose by temperature resistance
Steaming section: need to resist high temperature steam over 100℃ (thicker silicone belt is recommended).
Drying section: heat-resistant and anti-aging (UV-resistant silicone belt is optional).
