Wood processing machines require robust and precise industrial belting. Well-established in the board and panel industry, Habasit’s forming, prepressing and deaeration belts offer outstanding solutions. From solid-wood processing, to industrial furniture manufacturing, to production lines for all kinds of engineered wood products, Habasit belts satisfy the most ambitious application needs.
Forming belts
Habasit’s forming, transfer and accelerator belts have been specifically developed to cope with the requirements of all forming process belt applications. These processing belts are designed to run over live nosebars with high loads and long conveying distances. Their excellent stability and length and width thickness precision enable the manufacture of all types of boards, including very thin boards. The belts can be used with highly sensitive metal detectors, to protect expensive equipment. 
Prepress Belts
Habasit prepress belts ensure perfect prepressing of the mat thanks to their high modulus of elasticity, which is obtained by using both aramid and polyester fabrics, combined with excellent pressure resistance and compression distribution.
Deaeration Belts
Habasit’s deaeration belts for both MDF and particleboard manufacturing are the key to increased productivity thanks to their high and controlled air flow rates. Their robust construction based on polyester monofilament provides high chemical and abrasion resistance for long and maintenance-free belt life.
