The rubber timing belt is made of three main materials: chloroprene rubber, glass fiber, and nylon elastic fabric. It is a special type of rubber transmission belt used for various mechanical transmissions. By utilizing the engagement of the belt teeth with the gear teeth for transmission, it combines the comprehensive characteristics of gear transmission, chain transmission, and belt transmission.
Using rubber timing belts for transmission offers the following advantages:
Ensures synchronous transmission between pulleys without slipping
Transmission ratios can reach up to 10, with transmission speeds up to 40M/S
Transmission power can range from a few watts to over a thousand watts
Simple and lightweight transmission structure that requires no lubrication
Low initial tension required, resulting in minimal shaft load
Easy maintenance and convenient replacement, etc.
Therefore, rubber timing belts have been widely applied in automobiles, chemical fiber production, sewing equipment, textile machinery, cigarette-making machines, papermaking, printing equipment, office devices, communication food machinery, small household appliances, mining, metallurgy, steel machinery, medical equipment, chemical industry, light industry, as well as various precision machine tools and instruments.
