Replacement Support

Replace Your Metal Conveyor Belt — Even Without the Original Drawing. We Review It Against Your Equipment First.

Send a section of your old belt, a drawing or measured photos. We measure it, check it against your drum, drive and sprockets, and show you a sample before production — then test it before shipment.

Same Width and Pitch — Why a New Belt May Still Not Fit

A belt is matched to a system, not to two numbers. These twelve points are checked before the specification is confirmed — the last two only for self-stacking belts.

  1. 01

    Belt width

    Overall and mesh width, measured at several points.

  2. 02

    Rod diameter

    Every rod type on the belt, with a caliper.

  3. 03

    Rod pitch

    Over 10 pitches, not one.

  4. 04

    Link pitch and height

    Link geometry decides how the belt turns and stacks.

  5. 05

    Wire diameter

    Spiral or mesh wire, and which wire it is.

  6. 06

    Turn ratio

    How tightly the belt can turn on your drum.

  7. 07

    Inside radius and drum

    Drum (cage) diameter and how the belt meets it.

  8. 08

    Drive engagement

    Sprocket or drum drive — where and how the belt is driven.

  9. 09

    Sprockets

    Pitch, teeth, bore and wear on your existing sprockets.

  10. 10

    Wear on the old belt

    Stretched pitch or worn links mean the old belt is not the original size.

  11. 11

    Tier height

    Self-stacking belts: tier height and side plate height and thickness.

  12. 12

    Running direction

    Self-stacking belts: CW or CCW.

Three ways to replace

What Do You Have? Three Ways to Replace a Belt

Start from whatever you have now. Each route ends with a sample you approve before production.

New belt joined to the customer's old belt sample
I have an old belt section

Sample-based replacement

You send
A short section of the old belt, photos of the edge and the machine, and the drawing if you have one.
We do
Measure every dimension, check material and structure, compare with the drum and drive, and check a sample where needed.
You get
A sample made to your old belt — joined to it or compared side by side — before production.
Belt dimension drawing
I have a drawing

Drawing and specification-based

You send
The belt drawing or specification sheet, the machine model and the application.
We do
Check the drawing against the machine and process; suggest improvements such as surface finish where useful.
You get
A confirmed drawing and quotation, then a first article checked against it.
Belt measured with a caliper
I only have photos

Reverse engineering from photos

You send
Close-up photos with a tape or caliper in them, overall width, and photos of the drum and sprockets.
We do
Identify the belt type and structure, list what is missing, give an indicative quotation.
You get
A list of the dimensions still needed — then a sample before production.

More replacement scenarios

Self-Stacking Belt

Sample-based

Original belt from an existing stacking freezer. Sample measured for material, structure, side plate height and thickness; the new belt was joined to the original and tested before production.

Self-Stacking Belt

Reverse engineering

A section of the original freezer belt was sent with no drawing. Structure analysed, a sample made and compared before bulk.

Spiral Belt (cooling)

Reverse engineering

Bakery cooling spiral designed by a third party. Drum and belt photos and data reviewed; the sample was approved by the buyer before production.

Spiral Freezer Belt

Drawing-based

Replacement for an existing spiral, made to drawing with an improved surface finish; the buyer reported the belt running well after installation.

Belt, drive or system?

Replacement Belt, Belt and Sprockets, or a Change to the Machine?

Most lines need only a belt matched to the existing drive. If more is needed, you are told before quoting — not after installation.

Belt only

The drum, drive and sprockets are in good condition and the belt is matched to them.

Typical: Most replacement projects

Belt and sprockets

Sprockets are worn or the new belt pitch differs; sprockets are made and checked with the belt.

Typical: Worn drives, mixed suppliers

Machine change needed

The drive, drum or layout must change — we tell you, and the equipment builder handles the machine.

Typical: Capacity changes, damaged drums

Problems we check for on every replacement belt

Weld burrs

Weld burrs

Burrs on links catch product and wear the drum. Welds are checked and cleaned before packing.

Cracked rod-end welds

Cracked rod-end welds

Weak rod-end welds break under tension. Every edge weld is checked.

Deformed side plates

Deformed side plates

Bent plates stop a self-stacking belt from stacking. Plates are checked straight and square.

Sprocket pitch mismatch

Sprocket pitch mismatch

The belt rides over the teeth. Sprocket pitch is confirmed before quoting.

Starting a new line instead?

The same verification — drawing, sample, tests and photos — applies to new projects and equipment builders.

FAQ

Questions Buyers Ask Before Replacing a Belt

Q1Can a belt with the same width and pitch replace my existing belt?

Not by itself. Drive engagement, inside radius, link geometry, turn ratio and direction must also match — they are checked before you get a quotation.

Q2Can you replace my belt without the original drawing?

Yes. From a section of the old belt, or from measured photos, confirmed with a sample before production.

Q3Do you need the whole belt or a section?

A short section is enough — long enough to show a few pitches, both edges and the joins.

Q4What should I measure before replacing a spiral freezer belt?

Width, rod diameter, rod pitch, link pitch, wire diameter, turn ratio, inside radius, drive and sprocket details; for self-stacking belts also tier height and CW / CCW.

Q5My old belt is worn. Will you copy the wear?

No. Worn pitch and links are identified; the new belt is made to the original size, confirmed with you.

Q6Can you match a belt from another manufacturer?

Yes. The belt is measured and checked against your machine — the brand of the old belt does not matter.

Q7Do I need to change my drive?

Not if the belt matches your existing drive engagement and sprockets — this is checked first. If a change is needed, you are told before quoting.

Q8Will the next order be the same?

Yes. Replacement belts are recorded with their specification and shipment photos, and repeat orders follow that record.

Q9What is the fastest way to start?
