New success for NTM, a specialist in wire mesh belts

NTM, an Italy-based company specializing in the manufacturing of wire mesh belts, has recently completed the supply of a belt for furnaces for the glass industry, a sector that represents one of the company’s core businesses.

Indeed, NTM's products find application in various industries, as the company specializes in the construction and maintenance of belts and conveyor systems for tempering furnaces, heat treatments, and handling lines.

Characteristics of NTO wire mesh belt
The belt was manufactured using low-carbon AISI 304L steel. The choice of this material, combined with the corrugated crossbar structure which characterizes the NTO configuration, provides the belt with ideal robustness and resistance to withstand temperatures up to 700°C and the presence of concentrated chemical substances.

With a total width of 2,000 mm (NTM can manufacture widths up to 6,200 mm) and welded edges, the NTO offers a solid structure ensuring performance that, depending on the production process and sector, can last beyond 5 years from the initial installation. The wires used in this construction include a corrugated crossbar with a diameter of 3.4 mm and flat spirals (manufactured directly by NTM) with dimensions of 3x1.5 mm, ensuring perfect structural integrity and uniform load distribution during operation.

Thanks to its commitment to innovation and solid manufacturing, NTM is a partner to turn to for tailor-made wire mesh belt transportation solutions that need to withstand high temperatures (in some cases up to 1,200°C), environments with high chemical aggressiveness (furnaces with presence of gaseous ammonia at 900°C), immersion in acid liquids, food processing, and general logistics.

For the tempering, sintering, and heat treatment sectors, the company's team is at your disposal through the provided contacts for feasibility analyses and the preparation of quotations upon request.
