Italian bakery plant enhances efficiency and sustainability

Habasit ensured a smooth operational transition to the HabasitLINK M5293 Radius belts, delivering significant operational and sustainability benefits for the bakery’s spiral system.

A Tailored Belt Solution for Alimenta’s Spiral Conveyor Challenges

Alimenta Produzioni, a leading Italian manufacturer of bakery products, faced repeated challenges with spiral cooling conveyors prone to wear and breakage. With metal belts deteriorating quickly, production interruptions became costly and frequent.

The Habasit team worked closely with Alimenta’s operations and maintenance staff to identify the core mechanical and environmental challenges. Instead of offering a standard product, we proposed a tailored belt replacement solution:

M5293 Tight Radius 2” POM modular belt for the descending spiral
M5293 Tight Radius 2” PA+FRF (flame retardant) modular belt for the ascending spiral near the oven

"Now, with the new belts installed, we no longer worry about breakages. We can focus on what we do best - producing top-quality baked goods."

Roberto Ambrosino, Production Manager at Alimenta

From the initial proposal to on-site support during startup, Habasit ensured a smooth transition to the new system, delivering significant operational and sustainable benefits:
