Wire Mesh Belt Conveyor

Wire Mesh Conveyor

Introduction

Wire Mesh Conveyors utilize interlinked metal wires forming open-mesh belts—ideal for applications requiring airflow, drainage, temperature control, and easy cleaning. They are optimal in environments with heat, moisture, or debris.

Key Benefits:
  • Excellent airflow (cooling/heating cycles)
  • Hygienic, corrosion-resistant, and low-maintenance
  • Durable in harsh conditions, handling high temperatures and heavy loads

Ideal Applications

Wire Mesh Conveyors are used across multiple industries:

  • Food Processing – Baking, frying, cooling, washing, freezing
  • Beverage & Bottling – Post-wash draining and cooling lines
  • Pharmaceuticals – Cleanroom transfers of vials and blister packaging
  • Automotive & Heat Treatment – Through-paint ovens, quench lines
  • Electronics – Component transport during reflow soldering
  • Glass, Ceramics & Foundry – Curing, annealing, hot part transfer
  • Packaging & General Industry – Sorting, cooling, drying, elevate flow

Materials & Construction

1. Mesh Materials:
  • Carbon Steel (cost-effective, wear-resistant)
