Two types of Tension Testers are available from SDP/SI for quick, easy and accurate tension testing. Belt installation tension is measured in the following ways: Force/Deflection, Shaft Separation, Idler Force or by using a Tension Tester. Tension that is too high can reduce belt life and possibly damage other drive components such as shafts and bearings. One of the benefits of small synchronous belt drives is lower belt pre-tensioning in comparison to comparable V-belt drives, but proper installation tension is still important in achieving the best possible drive performance. Five standard widths are available and when required other widths can be cut to order. MXL timing belts are made of Polyurethane, reinforced with either Polyester or Kevlar cord or Nylon covered Neoprene, Fiberglass reinforced. Positive drive belt systems were first developed with a trapezoidal profile, such belts are MXL, XL and L. Polyurethane Belt, reinforced with Steel Tensile Cords Nylon Covered Neoprene Belt, Fiberglass Reinforced Small pitch synchronous drives operating at speeds of 50 ft/min or less are considered to be low-speed. Their positive driving nature prevents potential slippage associated with V-belt drives, and even allows significantly greater torque carrying capability. Synchronous drives are especially well-suited for low-speed, high-torque applications. Modifications can be quickly made when your design calls for a non-standard item. The pulleys offered here will mesh perfectly with either the GT2 or GT3 belt.ģ/8" (9.525 mm) Pitch L timing belts, aluminum pulleys, steel pulleys and molded plastic pulleys with either steel or aluminum inserts are available. The GT2/GT3 pulleys manufactured by Stock Drive Products are made using licensed hobs, achieving the precise fit for the drive system. Stock Drive Products is licensed by Gates. The pulleys therefore, should be supplied by qualified and licensed suppliers. The efficiency and integrity of a belt drive is closely attributed to the quality of pulleys involved. These belts and pulleys are available in 2 mm, 3 mm & 5 mm pitches and provide the following advantages:Īpplication Examples for the PowerGrip GT2 and GT3 drive systems: Machine Tools, Hand Power Tools, 3D-Printers, Medical Diagnostic Equipment, Automated Teller Machines, Robotics Equipment, and Vending Equipment. The modified curvilinear teeth enter and exit the pulley grooves cleanly, resulting in reduced vibration. The GT2 Belts are being phased out and replaced by the new GT3 Belt Drive Systemīoth the PowerGrip GT2 and GT3 System‘s deep tooth design increases the contact area which provides improved resistance to ratcheting. The improved construction and material compound provides superior load bearing capacity. The PowerGrip GT3 Belt Drive System is the newest design and offers additional benefits over GT2. The PowerGrip GT2 Belt Drive System is an advance in product design over the Gates‘ older, standard HTD system, providing higher torque carrying capability and improved load carrying strength.
