Make Ready Belts of Ironer Woven Belts Canvas Band and Cut Edge Sealing

 

The cutting edge sealing is a critical yet often overlooked detail when manufacturing finished Ironer woven belts. If not properly sealed, the belt edges are highly prone to fraying and thread pulling under high-speed operation and high-temperature friction, which can lead to complete belt damage or even entanglement in machine rollers.
 


Three Edge Sealing Methods

 
Method   Description  
Recommendation
 
1. Heat Sealing      
Using a soldering iron or heat gun to melt-seal the cut edge
 
  Highly Recommended— Simple, efficient, and cost-effective

2. Binding (Cover Strip)                               
  Wrapping and stitching a thin fabric    layer around the cut edge        Not Recommended—Complex, time-consuming; thick binding may cause bouncing during operation
3. Glue / Resin Coating  
Applying high-temperature resistant adhesive or resin to the cut edge
 
Not Recommended—Glue hardens when dry and creates impact force during operation, potentially causing hook disengagement
 

 

 

Heat sealing is our most recommended edge sealing method, which is simple, efficient, and more cost-effective. Below is the operation guide:

 
 

Step 1 –Cut the ironer canvas belt to the required length.

 

enlightenedTip: Draw straight lines at the cutting positions to prevent crooked cuts.

 Why is a straight cut so important?
If the cut is uneven, clipper hooks will grip deeper in some areas and shallower in others. Shallow grip areas lack holding force — the hooks will fall off more easily during operation.


 

 
 

Step 2 –Heat seal with a soldering iron


✓Completely fuse all loose threads
✓Seal all contact surfaces
! Caution:
 Do not dwell too long — avoid scorching the fibers
✓Once cooled, a perfect, firm sealed edge is formed


 
 

Step 3 –Fastening with clipper hooks


Use a professional fastening machine tool — either a hydraulic manual lacing machine or an electric automatic fastening machine — to fasten the clipper hooks to the belt.

Installation Note:
Make sure to fully insert the belt into the vice bottom and hold it firmly with both hands — no wobbling.
