A timing belt is a critical component in many mechanical systems, including 3D printers. It is a looped band made of high-strength rubber or polyurethane, often reinforced with materials such as fiberglass or steel to enhance durability and performance. Timing belts are designed to synchronize the rotation of two or more shafts, enabling precise control of movement. In the context of 3D printers, they are primarily utilized in Cartesian, CoreXY, and Delta printer designs to control the movement of the print head and the build platform.
