The problem arose from the belting system they were using to transport the X-ray film. The belt which is used to carry the finished film to viewing was <strong>made from woven polyester fabric with a silicone cover<\/strong>. The problem stemmed from the polyester fabric which was showing through the silicone cover <strong>distorting the X-ray image<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h2>How did we approach the problem?<\/h2>\n\n<p>To mitigate this issue, we developed a <strong>belting system made from a clear Ultem substrate<\/strong> that was also coated with silicone. The transparent nature of the substrate <strong>prevented X-ray image distortion<\/strong>. This further enhanced the knitted endless and spin-casting manufacturing process that was utilized. This innovative solution delivers <strong>a seamless belt that offers higher strength and longer service life<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>The finished belt featured dimensions of 171 mm in circumference, a width of 30 mm, and a thickness of 1 mm. This transport belt project was completed to <strong>the tightest tolerances of +0\/-0.01 mm<\/strong> in length and delivered to the client in 6 weeks.<\/p>\n\n<p>At Megadyne, our ability to manufacture<strong> innovative, speciality belting solutions<\/strong> makes us leaders in the industry. In this project, we provided a unique solution to solve the client\u2019s image quality problem and <strong>delivered a trouble-free conveying solution<\/strong>.

The client needed to improve the quality of the X-ray image since the fabric tends to show through the silicone. Megadyne\u2019s solution: a clear spin-cast Ultem substrate with the same silicone surface cover.
