Advanced Belt Solutions for Domestic & Commercial Appliances by Movendis
Industry Context
The appliance sector is evolving rapidly — driven by energy regulations, user comfort, and demand for compact, quiet, and efficient products. Whether in residential homes, industrial laundries, or commercial kitchens, belts play a critical role in ensuring smooth motion, energy savings, and long-term mechanical stability.
From the smallest fan in a ventilation unit to the high-speed drum of a commercial dryer, Movendis offers belt solutions designed to meet the functional, spatial, and acoustic constraints of today’s appliances — while ensuring compliance with European quality and sustainability standards.
Application Categories
Washing Machines & Dryers
- Belts drive drums, fans, and internal motors — often under high-speed, high-humidity conditions.
- Movendis belts ensure quiet, vibration-free motion, with minimal stretch or re-tensioning.
- Our molded stretch belts eliminate the need for tensioners in compact assemblies.
Fans, Blowers & Ventilation Units
- Whether in HVAC systems, kitchen hoods, or air purifiers.
- Requires low-noise belts that perform at high speeds with minimal belt flutter.
- Movendis provides Ribbed V-Belts and flat belts with precision grip and exceptional thermal stability.
Refrigerators & Cooling Units
- Compact belts are used in fan systems, air circulation motors, or defrost modules.
- Our belts maintain flexibility at sub-zero temperatures and resist condensation-related wear.
Kitchen Appliances & Small Domestic Equipment (SDA)
- Including mixers, grinders, coffee machines, and slicers.
- Requires ultra-quiet, short-length belts with minimal backlash.
- Movendis delivers custom belt profiles for OEMs needing brand-specific noise and performance curves.
Commercial & Industrial Equipment
- Laundromats, dishwashing lines, vacuum systems.
- Long duty cycles, high torque needs, and continuous ambient heat.
- Our heavy-duty belts withstand hours of continuous operation without deformation or noise increase.
Technical Highlights
Failure Modes We Prevent
- Cracking from dry heat — Solved with heat-resistant rubber mixes
- Squeaking or slippage under load — Solved with optimized surface treatments
- Premature elongation — Reinforced cord structure prevents belt stretching
- Harmonic vibration — Custom damping profiles reduce frequency noise
