Steel or KEVLAR
Reinforcement Both Steel and KEVLAR offer high
stiffness which is critical in a linear timing belt. Mectrol
offers a wide variety of no-stretch cords to balance with the
required pitch and pulley diameter. This optimizes the performance
characteristics required for your application.
Linear Placement of Cords All
cords in Mectrol's linear belt are located parallel to the belt
edges, and exactly perpendicular to the belt teeth. Unlike belts
that are produced with a helically wound cord, these belts exert
little or no side force, making them much easier to track.
Low Backlash Proper selection of belt and
pulleys can result in low or zero backlash in the belt and pulley
system.
Other Advantages Positive
Synchronization No re-tensioning required High operating
speeds High accuracy in molded dimensions Resistance to most
chemicals Quiet, smooth running, with no vibration No
lubrication and minimum maintenance
