Contain crumbs and loose material beneath a conveyor.
Siftex catch cloths fit below conveying equipment to collect material that falls from the belt or transfer. Custom straight, curved, funnel and box arrangements can address the line geometry, with access and cleaning planned as part of the design.
Example: Collect bakery crumbs under a conveyor instead of allowing them to fall across the area below.
Also known as: Bakery crumb catchers, catch cloths, under-conveyor containment.

access, fastenings and collection points affect maintenance.
material and fabrication must suit the environment.
crumb collection can support housekeeping.
product and cleaning conditions guide material selection.

Connection dimensions, offset and movement, product and cleaning chemistry, temperature, pressure or vacuum, abrasion, and any material-compliance documentation needed.
No. Product disposition depends on the site’s food-safety and quality procedures. The cloth provides containment; it does not establish that collected material is suitable for reuse.

Use a welded sleeve
Join process equipment with a tailored flexible connection.
Example: Connect an equipment outlet to a moving machine while reviewing dust containment.
Also known as: Welded sleeves, flexible process connectors, custom transitions.
Use a sewn fabric
Use selected fabric construction for a moving process connection.
Example: Connect a sifter discharge with a custom fabric sleeve suited to the movement.
Also known as: Siftsox, sewn sleeves, fabric connectors, sifter socks.
See the product flow
Keep the material path visible through a selected flexible connector.
Example: Observe a dry-material transfer through a clear flexible connection.
Also known as: Clear polyurethane connectors, transparent sleeves, Clear-Flex SDX.
Select a rubber sleeve
Choose a rubber sleeve around the product and operating conditions.
Example: Replace a flexible sleeve where the existing compound is affected by wear or cleaning chemistry.
Also known as: Seamless rubber sleeves, rubber connector tubing, elastomer sleeves.
Help clear the mesh
Help keep screen openings clear from below the mesh.
Example: Review screen blinding where an existing ball-tray deck needs suitable replacement balls.
Also known as: Sifter balls, mesh-cleaning balls, deblinding balls, Better Balls.
