Diaper and sanitary napkin production is one of the most demanding hygiene manufacturing processes in the world: absorbent cores, pulp, SAP (superabsorbent polymer) and non-woven fabrics must be conveyed, formed, dried and cut at high speed with absolute precision and hygiene. The polyester mesh belt is the workhorse that makes this possible — providing efficient material handling, air permeability and durability at every stage of the line.
From vacuum core forming to hot-air drying and final cutting, the mesh belt carries the product on a stable, breathable surface while letting air and moisture pass through. The right belt raises line speed, reduces material loss and keeps the hygiene-critical line clean — which is why belt selection is a quality decision, not just a spare-part decision.
The belt runs continuously through the machine, carrying the product through each production stage. Its open mesh is the working surface: vacuum draws air through it during core forming, hot air passes through it during drying, and its smooth, stable surface supports precise cutting and stamping.
Step 1 Material Conveyance Pulp, SAP and non-woven fabrics travel smoothly with even fibre distribution. | Step 2 Core Forming Vacuum draws air through the mesh, forming a stable absorbent core. | Step 3 Drying & Curing Heat-resistant mesh speeds drying and lets excess moisture escape. | Step 4 Cutting & Stamping A stable surface supports precise cutting, shaping and product consistency. |
01 Air Permeability Open mesh enables uniform air distribution for forming and drying | 02 Heat Resistance Withstands drying temperatures up to 200°C without deformation | 03 Stability & Precision Smooth, stable surface prevents slippage for precise cutting and stamping | 04 Hygiene & Cleanliness Easy-to-clean, antistatic options reduce dust and fibre buildup |
Material Conveyance & Forming ● Smooth transport of absorbent materials, pulp, SAP and non-wovens ● Uniform air distribution during core forming ● Stable absorbent structure in vacuum forming sections | Drying & Curing ● Heat-resistant mesh enhances drying efficiency ● Lets excess moisture escape for proper fibre bonding ● Consistent performance through hot-air dryers |
Cutting & Stamping ● Stable, smooth surface for precise cutting and shaping ● Prevents slippage for product consistency ● Supports high-speed converting stations | Waste Removal & Recycling ● Transports excess fibres and trimmed edges for recycling ● Reduces material loss and line waste ● Keeps the production area clean |

Q1: What role do polyester mesh belts play in diaper and sanitary napkin production? They convey pulp, SAP and non-woven fabrics, support vacuum core forming, speed up drying and curing, provide a stable surface for cutting and stamping, and transport waste for recycling. |
Q2: Which mesh structure should I choose? Fine mesh for SAP and fine fibres, medium mesh for forming sections that need airflow, and open mesh for drying and cooling processes. |
Q3: What temperature can the belt withstand? The heat-resistant polyester mesh belt withstands temperatures up to 200°C in drying and curing stages. |
Q4: What coatings are available? Teflon (PTFE) coating gives a non-stick surface that prevents material buildup, and antistatic polyester reduces dust accumulation for a cleaner line. |
Q5: What seam and jointing options are available? Seamless (endless) belts for smooth operation, hook & loop fasteners for easy installation, and spiral or pin seams for high-strength connections that suit frequent maintenance. |
Q6: Can the belt be customized? Yes. Thickness, weight, width, length and colour options are tailored to your machine specifications and production line requirements. |
Q7: How do the belts improve production efficiency? Smooth conveyance reduces material loss, vacuum forming builds a stable core, heat-resistant drying speeds production, and the stable surface prevents slippage during cutting — for consistent, high-speed output. |
