1.Copy once, supply many
One drawing from the original covers every oven the customer fits. The batch of about 300 m was made to it.

Z-Type Ladder Belts for Pizza Ovens in Australia — About 300 m, Cut Into 10 m Lengths
A customer in Australia supplies belts for pizza ovens, one belt length per oven. From the customer's original belt, the belt was measured and drawn, then about 300 m was made in one order in SUS304 and cut into 10 m lengths. Wire and pitch on the bulk belt match the original: 1.81 mm against 1.80 mm, and 12.70 mm on both.
- Location · year
- Australia · February 2025
- Application
- Pizza ovens · one length per oven
- Scope
- About 300 m in one order, in 10 m lengths
- Route
- Original belt → drawing → bulk
- Belt
- SUS304 · wire 1.8 mm · pitch 12.7 mm · 9 spaces · edge loop 9 mm
01
The situation
One Belt Length for Each Pizza Oven
The customer supplies belts for pizza ovens and fits one length to each oven. They sent their original belt to be copied and needed a large batch in the same size, ready to cut into 10 m lengths.
02
Reverse engineering
The Original Measured, Then Drawn
Wire diameter, pitch and the edge loop were read on the original with a caliper, and a drawing was made for the customer to confirm before production. The original edge loop read 10.00 mm; the customer confirmed a 9 mm edge loop on the drawing.
03
Sample before bulk
Bulk Belt Checked Against the Original
The bulk belt was read with the same caliper. Wire and pitch match the original, and ten pitches were measured to check that the length does not drift over the belt.
| Checked | Customer's original | Bulk belt |
|---|---|---|
| Wire | 1.80 mm | 1.81 mm |
| Pitch | 12.70 mm | 12.70 mm |
| Ten pitches | — | 127.00 mm |
| Edge loop | 10.00 mm | 9.02 mm (9 mm confirmed on the drawing) |
| Spaces across the belt | — | 9 |
| Material | Stainless steel | SUS304 |

Project summary
What This Project Shows Buyers
| Location · year | Australia · February 2025 |
|---|---|
| Industry · equipment | Food equipment · pizza ovens |
| Starting point | The customer's original belt |
| Before bulk | Original measured; drawing made and confirmed by the customer, including a 9 mm edge loop |
| Belt supplied | Z-type ladder belt, SUS304, wire 1.8 mm, pitch 12.7 mm, 9 spaces, edge loop 9 mm |
| Quantity | About 300 m in one order, cut into 10 m lengths |
2.Match wire and pitch first
Wire 1.81 mm against 1.80 mm, pitch 12.70 mm on both: the two values that decide fit on the oven.
3.Check length over ten pitches
127.00 mm over ten pitches shows no drift along the belt.
4.Cut to the length you fit
10 m lengths match one oven each, so the customer can stock and fit them directly.
✓ Evidence on this page: photos and caliper readings of the customer's original belt and of the bulk belt. Customer name, order numbers, stock codes and belt width are withheld.

FAQ
Questions About This Project
Q1Can you copy a pizza oven belt from the original?
Yes. Wire, pitch, spaces and edge loop are measured on the original and drawn before production.
Q2Can the belt be cut into fixed lengths?
Yes. In this project about 300 m was supplied in 10 m lengths, one per oven.
Q3Why does the new edge loop differ from the original?
The original read 10.00 mm. The customer confirmed a 9 mm edge loop on the drawing before production, and the bulk belt measured 9.02 mm.
Q4Which material was used?
SUS304 stainless steel.
Q5Is the customer named?
No. Cases show country and year only; the customer, order numbers and stock codes are not published.
