Belts for feeders, ironers and stackers

Ironing belts/ribbons for heated roll ironers

Our special polyester/Meta Aramid needled felt belt has a very smooth surface, which gives a non-marking finishing to the linen, associated to higher air permeability, which increases the output of the ironer.

The ironing belt is composed of needled felt with a heavy-duty polyester fabric scrim and polyester fiber on one side and Meta Aramid fiber on the heated roll side for working temperature of max. 200ºC.

Advantages:

  • High resistance to abrasion
  • High breaking strength
  • High air permeability, allowing the belt to run dryer, and increasing the output of the ironer.
  • Our ironing belt has a soft felt surface giving a smooth high quality finish to the linen.

Supplied in rolls of +/- 50 m of desired width or as ready-made belts.

Ready-made belts are supplied with stainless steel hooks, reinforced fabrics on both ends, Meta Aramid flap to cover the hooks and red corrugated pin to join.

Most of the world’s laundry machine manufacturers are equipping their machines with Valmet’s ironing belts (earlier called Fanafel’s ironing belts).

Complementary products for belts

In order to support our customers to make ready-made belts locally, we supply belt cutting devices and belt tensioning devices, hooks and vice lacers, and pins to join the hooks.

We also have solutions for crowning tape to be applied on the roll under the belts of the feeder or folder to provide guidance to the belts and to prevent the belts from brushing against the separators, which are mounted between the belts.
