New generation of conveyor belts from Forbo saves energy
With Amp Miser 2.0, Forbo Movement Systems presents the second generation of energy-saving conveyor belts. The energy-saving Amp Miser belts have been proving their worth for years in the tough day-to-day operations of logistics centers and baggage handling systems, for example at DHL and UPS and at various airports. The Amp Miser 2.0 belts are equipped with a technically enhanced polyester fabric tension member and optimized Texglide technology. As a result, they achieve an even lower coefficient of friction between the underside of the belt and the sliding table and consequently a correspondingly lower energy consumption: compared to conveyor belts with standard running side fabric, up to 50 percent of the drive energy can be saved in applications with long conveyors and high loads. Thanks to the improved Texglide technology in Amp Miser 2.0, the friction coefficient has been halved compared to previous types.
