  • Belts and Pulleys Glossary
    because of the lower friction which results from the cam rolling--not sliding--through the axis of rotation. Efficiency is affected by load, temperature, lubrication, and tare torque.
  • White Paper Download: Belt and Chain Drives
    Flat belts find considerable usage in applications requiring small pulley diameters, high belt surface speeds, low noise levels, low weight and inertia. They cannot be used where absolute synchronization between pulleys must be maintained because they rely on friction for their proper functioning

  • What is Ratcheting in Synchronous Belt Drives?
    or sprocket to deliver power transmission - most notably for applications that require high torque. Where V-belts rely on friction between the sidewalls of the belt and the sides of the pulley to transmit power, synchronous belts rely on the engagement between pulley teeth and belt teeth to transmit
  • Achieving Maximum Capacity On a New or Existing Bucket Elevator (.pdf)
    There is a demand for increasing the capacity of new and old elevators particularly for handling grain. Factors that influence the capacity of an elevator are: bucket type, shape and discharge characteristics, optimum speed in relation to pulley size, shape of head and boot, material
  • A Finer Control of Linear Motion
    Linear actuators essentially generate force and motion through a straight line. In a typical mechanical system, a device's output shaft would provide linear motion using a rotary motor through gears, a belt and pulley, or other mechanical components. Trouble is, these components must be coupled
