GKD belts are used for drying, cooling, and conditioning a wide range of products. Based on whether powder, granulate, or strands are being processed, we use mesh types produced from stainless steel or synthetic materials. Special materials are available on request. Stainless steels, for example, offer greater resistance to acids and alkalis, while synthet ic meshes can be used at temperatures of up to 180 °C (PPS) or 240 °C (PEEK). So-called hybrid meshes, which combine synthetics with metal, are also available for static discharge in potentially explosive areas. Belts produced from semi-twisted smooth meshes – such as stainless steel and synthetics with small apertures or pore sizes and high air permeability – are used for fine and ultra-fine powders. Belts with larger apertures demonstrate their strengths with coarser products or wider product webs. In both application scenarios our belts show low belt oscillation tendency, so they are easy to keep on track using active belt control systems, and thereby offer long service lives.
