Tailored to your production line
Challenging conditions require special belts
Frequent belt replacements and unscheduled downtime due to wear can be expensive and disruptive. The belts need to be very tough to handle the difficult conditions in food processing. They also need to withstand chemicals, temperatures and mechanical load.

Hygiene and product safety
Siegling Prolink is approved as food safe to the HACCP, FDA and NSF standards. All Siegling Prolink modular belts made of POM are certified by the IFRC Asia (member of the World Halal Council) for compliance with Halal regulations. Go to the declarations of conformity
The belts were developed for fast and thorough cleaning. As a result, they maintain the quality of the food and extend its shelf life. To prevent contamination, the belt is resistant to bacterial growth. Made of food-grade materials, the material can withstand oil, grease and detergents. For greater product safety, Prolink can also detect foreign bodies better.
ProSnap quick-release system
Plastic modular belts often need to be taken off the conveyor for cleaning (COP = cleaning out of place). In this case, operatives want to be able to open and close the modular belt rapidly and with ease. Which is why we developed the ProSnap release system. It’s available for Siegling Prolink series 4.1, 6.1, 10 and 13. The quick-release system is a real time saver. The belts stand apart for their flat surface (FLT) and exceptional strength. They’re made from POM and POM-MD (metal detectable).
The series 6.1 and 10’s tool-free opening capability, aided by a stainless steel hinge pin, is a real highlight. This hinge pin is easy to remove, even after a long time. As a result, maintaining and cleaning the modular belts is simpler.
