AMMEGA CEO, Stijn Vriends, will introduce the new group business vision and strategy at Hannover Messe.

With the merger of Ammeraal Beltech and Megadyne, a new belting group was created under AMMEGA name and both brands will exhibit together, at this year’s Hannover Messe, April 1-5.

AMMEGA is extending an invitation to show visitors to attend a special press and customer event on their stand on April 3, 2019 from 16:00 hrs, when Vriends will introduce the new AMMEGA business vision and strategy.

Comments Corporate Marketing Director Marc Maisonneuve:  “Altogether, this will be a key event for both brands to show the world that we’re now the global full-service powerhouse in both industrial power transmission and lightweight conveyor belting – so come and visit our stand to explore the profile of this new champion of belting.”

Conveying solutions

Key products presented will include Ammeraal Beltech’s uni UltraFit Two-part Sprocket System, with interchangeable adapters, which has proved a major engineering achievement for efficient conveying: the multi-directional uni QNB Ball Belt, now widely employed in intralogistics, materials handling, packaging and manufacturing; the versatile Soliflex PRO positive-drive belting solution for bakery and foods, offering optimal hygiene; and their Maestro Splicing Tool for quick on-site results.

Versatile power transmission solutions

Megadyne will feature their versatile range – rubber and polyurethane timing belts, pulleys; rubber V belts and a variety of belting “add ons” for different industrial applications. New products will be highlighted, including the Hybrid range for the hygiene, food and packaging industries that combine synchronous belts and conveyor belts; the new electric conductive Megapower EC belt;  the special Megalinear ID belt, equipped with a microchip that can relay data to smartphones or other devices;  and the Megawire solution for power supply to small motors for materials handling, in which the cords transmit power and electrical signals.

“A new portfolio of possibilities”

“Our combined presence at the Hannover Messe is bringing a new portfolio of product possibilities to customers at both ends of the belting scale. The coming together of Megadyne and Ammeraal Beltech is enabling us to fashion a 21^st-century answer to the challenges of both Industry 4.0 and traditional goods manufacture,” adds Stijn Vriends.
