Belt Solutions for Pulping, Paper Production & Converting Lines by Movendis
Industry Context
The pulp and paper industry involves a mix of high-speed machinery, wet environments, aggressive chemicals, and heavy mechanical loads. From debarking and pulping to drying, calendaring, slitting, and folding, every stage of paper production requires belts that deliver stable power under pressure, humidity, and temperature fluctuations.
Movendis provides rugged, moisture-tolerant, and vibration-free belt systems for paper mills and converting plants. Our solutions ensure continuous production, low maintenance, and precision across a wide range of paper types — from newsprint to high-gloss packaging.
Application Categories
Debarkers & Chippers
- Belts handle irregular wood input and heavy impact loads.
- Movendis belts offer shock resistance and outdoor performance.
Pulping & Refining Systems
- Drive mixers, refiners, and chemical dosing units.
- Our belts resist moisture, steam, and acidic environments.
Paper Machines (Fourdrinier, Yankee, etc.)
- Long belt runs for sheet forming and water removal.
- Requires low-elongation, anti-slip profiles for high-speed stability.
Dryers, Calendars & Winders
- Exposed to heat, pressure, and dynamic speed changes.
- Movendis belts maintain tension and reduce thermal deformation.
Slitters, Folders & Rewinders
- High-speed converting operations demand precision and repeatability.
- Timing and flat belts ensure accurate web control and cutting performance.
