VOLTA SPLICING TOOLS
A variety of tools are available for fabrication of Volta belting, including the following
splicing tools for low-cost and easy installations.
FLAT BUTT WELDING SYSTEM
The FBW splicing tool is lightweight and easy to use, it requires only a
standard electrical connection. This tool offers quick set-up and shortens
downtime for the customer. The at butt welding system is available to
splice belts as narrow as 12" or up to 83" wide. A 230V press must be
used for the maximum width of 83", and a 110V press offers a maximum
width of 51". All pro les and at belting are compatible for splicing with
this equipment.
FT ELECTRODE WELDING SYSTEM
The FT electrode welding system is lightweight and easy to use. This
system uses a router to cut the bevel on the belt edges and to trim the
weld. A hot air gun and Volta electrode are used for this weld option.
Different electrode sizes are selected based on the thickness of belt
being spliced.
FRICTION PAD
Our friction pad is made with top-quality resins, and has conical-shaped
perforations — ensuring stronger pin retention and better performance.
With high durability and longer life, the friction pad offers a great option
for original equipment replacement. It is available in 500' lengths as a
replacement only.
POWER GRAVITY ROLLER BELT
The power gravity roller (PGR) belt, with its embossed top and brushed
bottom, is designed for quiet operation and a long life. Its adhesive-free
joining process increases productivity and lowers maintenance costs. The
PGR belt works with your customers’ existing tooling, and splices into the
OEM belt, which provides even more cost savings.
