The wave stop system TWS is suitable for belts of up to 1 600 N/mm. Installation of the TTN and TTE systems leads to compression which may produce belt displacement, creating a bow or wave. By inserting the tensioning cable (= wave stop system) between the belt and the mechanical splice, formation of waves and bows is prevented, making insertion of the connection pins much easier. In addition, the belt runs evenly over belt scrapers, wear is minimized and excessive stress on the belt edge is avoided.

Planing is recommended for cover rubber thicknesses over 2 mm. The planer allows accurate planing of rubber covers with minimal effort. Planing provides a proven advantage: the belt fasteners are recessed in the belt cover, thereby reducing or avoiding the risk of damage to belt fasteners, scrapers, rollers, drive pulleys or tail pulleys.
