Vacuum/Perforated Belts
Vacuum/Perforated Belts: Precision and Control in Material Handling
Securely Transport Products Across Various Industries
Vacuum/Perforated Belts are essential tools in industries requiring precise material handling, product positioning, and controlled movement of goods. These belts are specially designed with perforations that create a vacuum effect, allowing them to securely hold products in place during transportation, processing, or assembly. The belts can be fabricated from various materials and customized to fit specific needs, including different perforation patterns, belt widths, and surface textures.
Vacuum Belts provide positive holding power for very light weight products, such as paper, plastic film and fabrics. Hole size and pattern can be modified to meet the applications you need.

| Hole Patterns & Shapes | Hole size and pattern (percentage of open air) can be modified to meet the application’s need. There are endless possibilities. There are some standard patterns available, but usually each unique application requires its unique hole pattern. A simple drawing with dimensioning is all that is required to have a die made for perforating. Please contact our Technical Department. Note: For vacuum applications, it is possible under certain circumstances, to extrude urethane timing belts with cord spacing that allows for placing the holes between cords so that the cords are not cut during perforation. |
