link v belt

V-belt transmission operates on the principle of friction between the belt and pulleys. When the prime mover, such as an electric motor, turns the driving pulley, the belt rotates around it. Due to the wedge shape of the V-belt, a significant amount of friction is generated, allowing the belt to transmit power to the driven pulley. This system can effectively transfer rotational motion from one axis to another, making it invaluable in various mechanical setups.

Poly V belts, also referred to as serpentine belts, consist of multiple V-shaped grooves running parallel along their length. This unique design allows for a higher surface area contact, which leads to better power transmission and efficiency compared to traditional V belts. Poly V belts are specifically engineered to handle high-speed operations while maintaining a compact format, which is crucial in modern machinery and vehicles that strive for space efficiency and weight reduction.
