Logistics BusinessOvercome Peak Season Challenges in Logistics

As the peak season approaches, Ammeraal Beltech, a global provider of high-quality conveyor belting solutions, is stepping up its support for the logistics industry. With an extensive range of advanced conveyor belts, accessories, and services, the company is committed to ensuring seamless operations and uninterrupted workflows for logistics facilities during this critical period.

“Peak season presents unique challenges for the logistics industry, with heightened demand and the need for flawless operations,” says Florian Kley, ISM Airport & Logistics at Ammeraal Beltech. “We’re dedicated to helping businesses navigate these complexities with our cutting-edge belting solutions, designed for efficiency and reliability.”

How To Prepare For Peak Season

Ammeraal Beltech introduces the Ziplink® belts, a groundbreaking solution engineered to tackle peak season demands. Featuring a pioneering design that integrates cover materials with a structured link mesh, Ziplink® belts allow for splicing at any length with just a single pin. This innovation removes splice areas and potential weak points, offering a robust solution without added thickness or metal components that could damage machinery or goods.

“The unique mesh structure of Ziplink® belts not only facilitates easy splicing without special tools but also ensures swift maintenance and minimal downtime during critical operations,” Kley explains. “This innovation is specifically tailored to help logistics facilities manage peak season challenges with ease.”

Enhanced Performance in Parcel Operations

Kley highlights the significant impact of Ziplink® technology: “Our customers have reported remarkable improvements in parcel sortation operations since adopting Ziplink® belts. At the sorter’s infeed—the heart of logistics centres—where reliability is crucial, these belts have proven invaluable.”

Ziplink® belts are versatile, used in gapping, live roller systems, strip merging, general and incline transport, and high-speed merging operations. “Users have noted over a 50% reduction in both time and manpower required for belt changes,” Kley adds. “This advancement not only boosts productivity but also enhances safety and reliability in parcel sortation.”

Superior Performance Under Tough Conditions

In addition to Ziplink® belts, Ammeraal Beltech offers a variety of high-performance solutions, including RAPPLON® flat belts and heavy-duty roller drives. These belts excel in challenging conditions, such as extreme temperatures and heavy loads. RAPPLON® belts can be made endless with Classic Splice or QuickSplice, a reliable method that completes splicing in under 15 minutes—half the time of traditional systems.

RAPPLON® heavy-duty roller drive belts are designed for high loads and long transport sections, featuring a robust Aramid tensile member and a wear-resistant Polyurethane cover. This design supports accumulation and ensures low energy consumption due to its flexibility.
