Maintenance and Care

The operation of a toothed belt involves the interaction of these teeth with the grooves on the pulleys. When the driving pulley rotates, the belt moves in unison, causing the driven pulley to rotate at a specific ratio, which is determined by the size of the pulleys and the number of teeth on the belt. This precise coordination allows for accurate synchronization in applications like engine timing, where even a slight delay can result in serious mechanical issues.

5. High Load Capacity The design of ribbed drive belts allows them to handle high loads without compromising performance. This makes them suitable for various applications, from small engines to heavy machinery, where reliable power transmission is critical.

3. Robotics Synchronous belts are widely used in robotic arms and motion systems to achieve precise movement. Their ability to maintain timing is crucial for enabling robots to carry out tasks with high accuracy.

3. V-belts These are the traditional belts that power various accessories in older vehicles. V-belts tend to wear out faster than modern serpentine belts and are generally being phased out in favor of a more efficient design.
