Field Services
Vulcanized (welded) belt splicing, profile belt upgrades and conveyor modifications for bakery, food, produce and packaging lines in South Florida and beyond.
What We Do in the Field
Oriontek is more than a parts counter. When a belt keeps failing, a splice lets go, or a conveyor no longer fits the job, we come out, work out what is going wrong, and fix it, usually with the parts we supply.
Belt Vulcanizing & Welding
Endless splicing of thermoplastic (TPU and PU) conveyor and process belts with a portable press, on the line or in the shop. No lacing, no hinge pins.
Profile & Guide Belt Upgrades
Welded profile belts and V-guides that replace laced or failure-prone belts on sorters, singulators and inclines.
Sanitary Food Belts
Smooth, cleanable belts and joints for bakery, snack and produce lines, cut and spliced to length.
Conveyor Modification & Rebuilds
Bed and clearance changes, new chain conveyor systems and drives, shafts, bearings and plumbing, up to a full machine rebuild.
Drive & Transmission Parts
Roller chain, sprockets, timing and V-belts, sheaves, couplings, bushings and mounted bearings matched to your drive.
Failure Diagnosis & Spec
Send a photo, a part number or the old belt. We identify it, cross-reference it and quote a replacement or an upgrade.
Belt Splicing: Why Welded Beats Laced
Mechanical lacing is quick to install, but it is the part of the belt that wears, catches and fails first. On food lines it also leaves gaps where product collects. A vulcanized (welded) splice joins the belt into one endless piece: the joint is flat and smooth, tracks like the rest of the belt and is easier to clean.
We splice thermoplastic belts with a portable splice press, so a belt can often be made endless right on the conveyor without pulling the frame apart.
Recent Field Jobs
Bakery · Belt Splicing
55 ft Sanitary TPU Bakery Belt, Vulcanized (Welded) Endless
A 55 ft sanitary TPU belt for a bakery conveyor, joined endless with a portable air-cooled splice press.
A welded joint is smooth and flat, with no lacing for product or debris to collect in, which matters on food-contact conveyors.
Food & Produce · Belt Upgrade
Tomato Singulator: Welded Profile Belts Replace Laced V-Guide Belts
The singulator on this tomato line ran laced belts with vulcanized V-guides. They were expensive to buy and the lacing was a recurring source of trouble.
We replaced them with welded profile belts made endless for the application. With no lace in the belt, the weak point is gone and the cost of each replacement belt comes down.
Produce · Conveyor Modification
Tunnel Washer Rebuild for Produce Tote Bins
A complete modification of a tunnel washer that cleans produce tote bins.
We installed all-new cool water plumbing, modified the bed height and the ceiling height, and built and installed the whole chain conveyor system and drive.

Belt Vulcanizing on a Rondo Reciprocator
A new belt for a Rondo reciprocator, spliced endless on a Fonmar Gamma splice press.
The result is a smooth, flat joint that runs through the machine with no lacing.
