Description

How belt adjustment works on your line
The B0109GC BELT-80C is a maximum-format 50-slot ESD magazine rack with continuous belt-driven width adjustment. A hand-driven belt rotates pulleys at the top and bottom of the chassis, turning two captive lead screws in unison, both side panels travel toward or away from each other on the same revolution. The adjustment is continuous (no stepped clicks, no fixed indices), so any board width from 10 mm to 460 mm is reachable on a single rack, the widest belt range in the catalog.
Construction: 2 interchangeable Conductive PS side panels, aluminum pillars, galvanized steel base, and 2 H-type stopper plates (vs. the single stopper bar on gear-track variants). The slot is 5 mm wide × 4 mm deep, deeper than the gear-track 3.5 mm slot, for tighter board retention through inline conveyor handling. Surface resistance stays in the conductive 10⁴–10⁶ Ω band per ESD Association classification.
Designed for the standard 80 °C ambient envelope. For bake or cure cycles, the maximum-format chassis family also includes the B0109GN-80C / GM-200C gear-track variants and the GL HT-300C all-aluminum sibling.

50-slot ESD magazine rack on the large-format chassis, with continuous belt adjustment covering 10–330 mm of board width, no stepped clicks, no fixed indices.
Belt vs. gear-track adjustment, which one do I pick?
Pick **belt** (this rack) when board widths vary across the full range, **10 mm flex circuits and 460 mm backplanes run on the same maximum-format rack**. The continuous adjustment hits any width without an indexing limit. Pick [gear-track (B0109GN-80C)](pcb-b0109gn-80c-shop-standalone.html) on the same maximum chassis when board widths are standardized above 50 mm and you want indexed positions for repeatable setups. Trade-off: gear is slightly cheaper and lighter; belt covers the wider range and the narrow-flex use case.
Why is the slot 4 mm deep instead of 3.5 mm?
The deeper slot, 5 mm wide × **4 mm deep** vs. 3.5 mm on gear-track variants, gives narrow flex circuits and small-format boards more retention surface during inline conveyor handling. Narrow boards have less mass, so they’re more vulnerable to walking out of a shallow slot during transport vibration. The extra 0.5 mm of slot depth keeps them seated.
Will the B0109GC BELT-80C drop into my SMT loader / unloader?
The 563 mm chassis height and 10 mm slot pitch align with the standard interface used by ASM SIPLACE, Yamaha YSM, Panasonic NPM, Juki RS, and most other in-line SMT loader / unloader equipment, but the **535 × 530 mm footprint** is the largest in the catalog, many in-line loaders are not configured for maximum-format racks out of the box. Confirm with your loader / unloader vendor before ordering. The 535 × 530 footprint matches the B0109GN-80C / GM-200C gear-track siblings (the GL HT-300C uses the same footprint at 569 mm height instead of 563). The narrow-board capability does not change the loader interface, the loader still picks boards from the standard slot positions.
What are the H-type stopper plates, why two instead of a stopper bar?
Standard gear-track racks use a single stopper bar across the rear of the rack. The belt-adjustable B0109GC uses **two H-shaped stopper plates** instead, positioned to clear the belt and lead-screw assembly that runs across the rack interior. Function is identical (prevents boards from sliding through during transport); the H-shape just routes around the belt mechanism without interfering.
Can I bake the B0109GC BELT-80C? What’s the temperature ceiling?
The GC BELT-80C variant is rated −20 °C to +80 °C, the standard SMT envelope. The belt mechanism is not currently qualified for higher temperatures. For **bake-suitable** use on the same maximum chassis, switch to the gear-track [B0109GM-200C (200 °C)](pcb-b0109gm-200c-shop-standalone.html). For **aerospace-grade 300 °C cure**, use the [B0109GL HT-300C all-aluminum](pcb-b0109gl-ht-300c-shop-standalone-rev2.html) variant.
