Principle Knowledge of Optibelt Transmission Belt

According to different transmission principles

There are friction type belt transmission driven by friction between the belt and the pulley, and synchronous belt transmission driven by the meshing of the teeth on the belt and the pulley.

Optibelt Drive Belting has the characteristics of simple structure, smooth transmission, buffering vibration absorption, power transmission between large shaft spacing and multiple shafts, and its low cost, no need for lubrication, easy maintenance, etc. It is widely used in modern mechanical transmission. The friction type belt drive can overload and slip, and the running noise is low, but the transmission ratio is inaccurate (slip rate is below 2%); the synchronous belt drive can ensure the transmission synchronization, but the ability to absorb load changes is slightly worse, and there is noise at high speed operation. In addition to transmitting power, the belt drive is sometimes used to transport materials and arrange parts.

Belt Drive composition usually consists of a driving wheel, a driven wheel and an endless belt tensioned on two wheels.

advantage:

Stable transmission, simple structure, low cost, convenient use and maintenance, good flexibility and elasticity, and overload slipping.

Disadvantages:

Inaccurate transmission ratio, low belt life, large load on the shaft, large external dimensions of the transmission, and low efficiency.

Therefore, belt drive is often suitable for large center distance, small and medium power, belt speed v = 5 ~ 25m / s.
