Precision™ Belts & Sprockets

- Guaranteed to track
- Double your belt life
- Matching belts and sprockets for reliable positive drive
For hard-to-track and difficult-to-drive conveyors, or for those that are prone to belt distortion and short belt life, we offer MTS Sprockets, MTR Plus Drive Rollers, and their precisely-matched companion meshes. The system is simple, and ensures conveyors will operate without constant cleaning, tracking adjustment, or replacing. These systems are all positive drive combinations designed to provide you with trouble-free operation. Don’t be fooled by imposters! Only Cambridge offers the original, most precise belts, sprockets and drive rolls.

The MTS Sprockets and Mesh Belt System
The MTS system features belts matched precisely with machined tooth sprockets. The unique design of the machined teeth provides self-cleaning action necessary in many applications where product consistencies are thick or tend to bind. Additionally, numerous custom options are available. These include the widest range of diameters available in the industry, idle end “guide” sprockets, custom face widths, cleaning grooves for additional product buildup prevention, and many others.
Many standard and customized mesh combinations are available for short to long process conveyors, as well as for transfer conveyors. Precision Belts utilize our balanced Flat Seat® technology which reduces vibration, improves product support and dramatically reduces belt stretch. Even better, many of the mesh designs are very flexible, and nosebar diameters as small as ¼″are possible.
Once the conveyor is aligned and started, the MTS Sprockets provide a reliable and consistent positive drive. This positive drive also maintains the belt position during operation. No other steering or tracking method is needed. The parallelogram-shaped teeth precisely match the shape of the belt opening to ensure slip-free and trouble-free operation.

MTRplus™ Drive Roll and Mesh Belt System
There has never been a positive drive roll like the MTRplus™. Using machinery specifically designed to produce these rolls, tooth profiles and tooth locations match the corresponding mesh belt perfectly – each and every time. The MTRplus thrives in those applications where heavy loads and high temperatures are the norm. Like our MTS Sprockets, a wide array of custom options are available to allow the MTRplus roller to provide the best possible performance for your conveyor system.
The individual teeth of the roll are machined to allow for expansion and contraction of the belt during startup, normal operation and cool-down, ensuring proper functionality throughout the entire production day.
FFR Mesh
For applications where a lighter-weight belt is required, or where a straight-through clear opening is important, the FFR series of Precision Belts is the answer. This series offers all of the benefits of the standard Precision Mesh Belt, but the percentage of open area is increased to further enhance ease of cleaning and mass reduction.
