With over 1.52 million vehicles processed on a single belt using a single set of drive sprockets, the uni CSB still has service life remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The uni CSB belt has proven to be very resilient \u2013 all the more impressive given the intensity of Breeze Thru&#8217;s operation: 16 locations, ISO 9001:2015-certified maintenance, and more than 2,800 maintenance tasks carried out every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Unique properties of uni CSB<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">uni CSB was built for demanding, high-load environments &nbsp;\u2013 so its longevity is no accident. Several design decisions work together to extend belt life and reduce total cost of ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The uni CSB is a plastic modular conveyor belt specifically engineered for the demanding conditions of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammeraalbeltech.com\/en-gb\/industries\/automotive\/carwash-and-detailing\/\">the carwash applications<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At its core is Dual Compound Technology (DCT): a unique approach that combines two different materials within one belt link. This allows electrically conductive and flame-retardant properties to be added to the belt through cost-efficient inserts without compromising belt pull as usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Long belt life is further supported by a high contact area, an innovative belt bottom design, and wear-resistant wheel plate inserts for less bottom wear at high surface pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, these features minimise mechanical complexity and make routine maintenance faster and more predictable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Improve your operations with Ammeraal Beltech solutions<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Breeze Thru Car Wash\u2019 story proves that with a well-engineered system and disciplined preventive maintenance, outstanding belt longevity is within reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Ammeraal Beltech, we engineer conveyor belts to last. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammeraalbeltech.com\/en-gb\/contact\/\">Contact us now<\/a> to discuss your own unique challenges!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When uni CSB plastic modular belt was introduced at a Breeze Thru Car Wash in 2012, the original design target was set as one million washed vehicles per belt.
