Stretch-Rite®

A two-part program simplifying the take-up system.

PPI’s Stretch-Rite® is a two-part program that allows customers to use a simpler manual take-up frame on long conveyors that have historically used more complicated automatic take-up systems. The program consists of the Stretch-Rite belt calculations and the optional 120” extended take-up. These extended take-ups can also be used on conveyors that have automatic take-up systems but require additional belt storage.
