In practically every sector of the printing industry, machine tapes convey, fold or package printed or unprinted paper.
For decades, Forbo Movement Systems has had a reputation as a partner in development and supplier for machine manufactures and users in the paper, printing and packaging industry. In this industrial sector, Siegling Extremultus machine tapes and Siegling Transilon conveyor belts are the first choice for nearly all functions and processes.
Thanks to the new Siegling Extremultus E line machine tapes, the potential for quality and productivity of tried-and-tested machine designs can be used to the fullest. The highly-modular thermoplastic tension member design with polyester fabric, in conjunction with highly wear-resistant surface, makes applications possible ranging from the sheet feeder to the most varied of machines in the packaging sector.
With their special tension member Siegling folder belts can reach speeds of up to > 17 m/sec. Precise conveying of the product is also guaranteed in variable/pinless gripper folders.
Continuous production in offset-printing relies on precise feeding of the sheet into the printer. Apart from the elastomer-coated belts previously used for sheet feeders, an increasing number of alternatives with fabric or soft polyamide surfaces are becoming more common.

The abrasive behavior of printed newspaper paper requires the folder belts in the folder to have extremely abrasion-resistant surfaces and a low friction coefficient to the paper.
