Applications
Where can a ThermoDrive incline belt deliver value for you?
Incline to Packaging
Food processors have reduced cleaning and changeover time in incline-to-packaging applications by up to 50%. Hinge-free, fully closed belt surfaces help prevent bacterial harborage. And, depending on the application, ThermoDrive belts offer easy drop-in replacement on many existing conveyor systems.
Bulk Incline Conveyance
ThermoDrive belting is available in surfaces and styles, like Ribbed V-Top, that can help you eliminate the need for belt flights with small, delicate products. We can help you enhance bulk product conveyance on inclines up to 30 degrees while decreasing product loss and damage.

Dewatering
For incline applications where dewatering is required, ThermoDrive Perforated Flat Top belts provide for efficient dewatering while maintaining the highest standards in hygienic performance and operational efficiency. Even with a perforated surface, the belt’s homogeneous thermoplastic material remains impervious to bacterial and moisture harborage. The Perforated Flat Top belt’s perforation pattern is optimized for use with accessories.
