As the worldwide leading manufacturer of conveyor and processing belts made of modern synthetics, Forbo Siegling have developed a product range for the special requirements of the nonwoven and clothing industry. Siegling Transilon can be spliced quickly and simply, is maintenance-free, easy to track and has a long service life. Many types are extremely well suited for various applications: strong belts for unravelling machines and blenders extremely light-weight and smooth belts for high-speed cross-lappers cut-resistant belts for strip-cutting machines belts with special top face constructions for gentle conveying in laundry folders Our close cooperation with original equipment manufacturers and users ensures that Siegling Transilon meets all the requirements for production reliability and productivity. Simple splicing using practical fitting equipment and reliable splicing methods round off the Forbo Siegling product and service range. The conditions under which conveyor and processing belts are used are extremely diverse. Even more reason to use Siegling Transilon and take advantage of the experience and competence of your Siegling partner.
Profiles/patterns
For machinery without belt-tracking systems with short centre distances, longitudinal tracking profiles are often used. Profiles made of PVC, urethane or polyester are available. Siegling Transilon patterned belts with special surface properties: For inclined conveying, pickoff functions and conveying nonwovens without any distortion. Lattice pattern (SG) Inverted pyramid pattern (NP) Normal textured surface (STR)
The Properties
highly conductive coating
The Advantages
no malfunctions due to electrostatic build-up practically no relative motion, possible to dip into web, clean laying pattern higher laying speeds, smooth reversing motion at web edge excellent flatness, significantly reduced risk of web creasing homogeneous surfaces, no web adhesion, do-it-yourself splicing possible
Forbo Siegling Quality for the quality of your production The delivery of the web with almost no relative motion from the reciprocating movement in the cross lapper and a defined laying pattern with a clean edge even at high laying speeds are decisive for the quality of your production. It is also necessary to deal with vital system conditions such as air currents and production characteristics specific to the product being manufactured. The lower web ply on the lattice apron may not be pressed together and the edges should be flush. Thanks to the exceptionally highly-conductive coating with reduced coefficient of friction, the new Transilon web-laying belts make it possible to lay the web perfectly and to dip into the layered web. This new type of homogeneous coating design guarantees constant belt properties and continuously high product quality, even in the case of mechanical wear from clearer flats or occasional minor malfunctions. And thats why the leading producers of nonwovens place their trust in Forbo Siegling.

Air is suctioned through the incision-resistant belt. The low pressure generated holds the cloth in place across its entire width so that it can be cut.
As a smooth base for manual cutting, our belt type E 8/2 U0/U2 LF green is used. Its surface with an extremely low friction coefficient (LF = low friction) has significant advantages over conventional belt surfaces: only approximately 1/3 of the drag of standard coatings material can be moved and positioned on the surface very easily knife runner slides easily on the top face, reducing wear on the runner and belt as well as enabling precise cutting with little effort.
exceptionally good cut resistance (cuts into the belts close on their own). air-permeable (cloth is suctioned through the belt which holds it in place).
in laundry folders
The type E 2/1 0/V/NOVO-NA-Q grey is ideal for use on laundry folders. good, gentle grip of textiles mechanical fasteners possible (hook embeds easily) underside fabric of polyester maintains tension and has low drag. Wherever good grip properties are required, belt types with a lattice pattern (SG) can also be used (see page to the right).

Consequently, changes in technical parameters can occasionally occur. Therefore, please see the current product data sheets for specific information on designs and calculations.
Types of splices
Available as
endless belts belts prepared for hot or cold-pressing on site
Splice technology
Simple, rapid methods allow on-site splicing while also achieving high splicing reliability. For easier handling directly on the system, Forbo Siegling now supplies an innovative series of presses. One of their top features is their extremely low weight; they can, in their largest version, be used for belt widths of up to 4000 mm. The low press weight makes fitting much easier.
