Smooth Fuse SF12

Main features

1) Reduces machine downtime

· Extends conveyor belt life by lubricating and improving the suppleness of Kevlar/fibreglass base   cloth
· Minimising belt replacements arising from belt surface abrasion from offload guides/scrapers
· Reducing belt replacements arising from hard substrates being laminated
· Reducing belt replacements arising from hard deposits damaging conveyor surface
· Minimising stoppages for conveyor and pressure roller cleaning
· Reducing belt joint abrasion and damage where endless belts not used
· Reducing wear and tear to drive systems and other parts of the machine
· Reducing downtime as a result of machine damage from sticking substrates
· Reducing mechanical/electrical strain to rewind systems offload systems caused by sticking   substrates
· Reduces friction and abrasion to bottom surface of conveyor running over guides

2) Improves quality and reduces wastage

· Reduces wastage from stain marks on laminate arising from belt contamination
· Provides protection from stain marks on substrate occurring along belt abrasion lines
· Avoids sticking substrates causing concertina damage to substrates
· Avoiding laminate surface damage and delamination caused by adhesive contamination
· Improving quality by enhancing substrate ‘handle’
· Eliminating line abrasion and other impression marks on laminate

3) Improves productivity and reduces production slow downs

· Reduces the incidence of sticking substrates/adhesives missing the exit position
· Increases production speed by avoiding laminates colliding with offload guides/scrapers
· Enables faster production speeds without stretching and separation of the laminate
· Avoids slow downs resulting from force peeling of laminate from the conveyor surface
· Increases set up speeds by easy substrate manoeuvring on belt and other surfaces

4) Safe to use – no dangerous vapours or CFCs

· Safe - no harmful vapours or CFCs
· Easy - pump action spray delivers a direct, dense, even application every time
· Cost-effective - cleaning and lubricating particles remain active to the last drop
· Available in a variety of sizes and formats

5) Assists technological advancement in difficult to laminate substrates

· Allowing the production of new laminates and composites which would otherwise have been   impossible due to substrate sticking to conveyor surfaces
· Facilitating production improvements in special laminates with adhesive and heat sensitive   substrates as the top or bottom layer
· A full 500ml bottle of active cleaner/lubricator and all the fluid is active to the last drop
· Easy to use pump action spray containers which deliver a direct even spray of liquid every time
