PowerGrip® Belt Drive Selection Procedure Selection of a stock PowerGrip® Belt Drive System involves these five steps: 1. Calculate design horsepower. 2. Select belt pitch 3. Select sprockets and belt. 4. Select belt width. 5. Determine bushing and bore requirements. Sample Problem A gear pump is to be driven by a 40 hp normal torque
Take a look at the accompanying chart (Figure 1). Each of these belts has a 1⁄2-inch top width and 50-inch circum-ference. However, notice the diferences in cord materials, body compounds, cov-er configurations, temperature ranges and application requirements.
The SKF Belt Drive Design Calculations Tool allows field engineers and technical sales personnel to check the quality of an existing belt drive design in an intuitive and easy way. In addition, the application will propose multiple solutions for the user to consider.
Belts are identified by: 1. Pitch: Distance in inches or millimeters between two adjacent tooth centers as measured on the belt pitch line. 2. Pitch Length: Total length (circumference) in inches or millimeters as measured along the pitch line. It is equal to the pitch multiplied by the number of teeth in the belt. 3.
This paper presents a thorough explanation of geometric, loading and deflection relationships of reinforced urethane timing belts. It covers valuable background for the step by step selection procedure for the "Belt Sizing Guide". available on the Gates Mectrol web.
