Cambridge Introduces New Belt for Bakery Spiral Cage Systems

Cambridge Engineered Solutions, manufacturer of metal conveyor belts, unveiled Cam-Grid®GP, a new metric-sized product for use on spiral cage systems.

Cam-Grid GP is designed for OEMs and end-users in international and domestic markets with spiral cage systems used for proofing, cooling and freezing processes in bakeries as well as conveyors that move meat, poultry and prepared foods within processing plants.

With a 35 mm pitch and 90.7 kg tension rating, Cam-Grid GP is stronger than Cambridge’s Cam-Grid® belt and equal in strength to standard duty Cam-Grid® Xtra.

“We wanted to design a true metric-sized belt that is a sturdier, cost-effective solution for bakeries and processors overseas and within the United States,” said Mike Truitt, Cambridge’s International Sales Director. “As a result, we can offer Cam-Grid GP at a competitive price, and the customer is able to reduce energy costs due to the greater load capacity in smaller systems.”

Cam-Grid GP’s extended pitch provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, says Cambridge. It allows product loading from link to link and is fully collapsible for easy cleaning.

A sample of Cam-Grid GP will be on display at Cambridge Engineered Solutions’ exhibit at the International Baking Industry Exhibition (IBIE 2016), Exhibit Hall C-5.1, booth #9934.
