RECEPTION SOCIETY PRODUCTS PARTNERS R&D KNOW HOW CONTACT Calculation of conveyor belt NOVELTY Poly Chain® Carbon ™ Volt® ERO Joint® R&D Home > R&D Our strong and affirmed desire for technological independence and the development of technical products led us to create in 2008 the Research and Development unit. Thus we develop our processes , design and commission our production machines and develop Tanals design products . We also have a laboratory and testing and calculation resources which allow us to recommend the most suitable product or to develop the most suitable product for your application. MATERIALS TESTING AND RESEARCH For specific applications we have developed our own elastic belts . For this we have developed a method of material characterization and relaxation test . We were thus able to test and select the best materials on the market. We regularly practice of testing breaking material or junctions, stiff measures , the peel tests junction or coating, the dynamic tests , the friction coefficient measurements , the relaxation measurements . (These tests can be performed at 20 ° C or at application temperature.) DEVELOPMENT OF THE JOINING PROCESS In order to obtain the most efficient belts and bands possible for the most demanding applications, we develop all our joining processes in-house, so we have designed a new press specially dedicated to the joining of elastic belts . DEVELOPMENT OF ERO JUNCTIONS (MECHANICAL JUNCTIONS) Since 2010, we have been developing ERO junctions in polyurethane timing belts, conveyor belts, monoblock belts and in the PolyChain. In order to facilitate the assembly of these belts, we have also developed several tools. These innovations, protected by four patents, provide new maintenance solutions and reduce the downtime of production lines .
