Rubber conveyor could transmit shock and vibration. Therefore, rubber conveyor belt has the characteristics of a lower transmission noise.
And rubber conveyor belt does not require lubrication which could meet the needs of high-speed engine’s transmission.
Moreover, the rubber conveyor belts required little installation space, has good ability to adapt to environment.

The first step in identifying which timing belt that you have is to look for identifying numbers and/or letters marked on the timing belt. These numbers indicate a standard trade size and will help in identifying the specifics of the cog belt. Also, by being able to identify the manufacturer and/or trade name on the timing belt will assist in the identification process.
Secondly, if there is no trade size indicated on the timing belt do the following:
Measure the width of the timing belt.
Note the construction of the timing belt. Rubber construction is extremely flexible while a polyurethane construction is plastic like and has little flexibility.
Measure the pitch. This is the distance in millimeters (mm) and/or inches between the center of the crown of one tooth and the center of the crown of the tooth adjacent to it.

When we want to transfer power from one shaft to another, we use power transmission devices, such as belts, chains and gears. In today’s article we will discuss a highly flexible and efficient power transmission device known as V belt. V belts get their name from their trapezoidal shape, which helps them wedge into the sheaves.
Twisted synthetic fibrous tensile chords, compressed by synthetic rubber, form a typical V belt, rendering it strength and flexibility. To break the bending resistance even further, to keep the operation temperature lower, and to give higher capacity, V belts come in cogged construction as well. As opposed to chains, V belts do not require lubrication or maintenance. They also solve the slippage and alignment problems.
The types of V belts and their standard sizes:
There are three common V belt types: Classical V belt (classified by their dimensions from A to E), Narrow V series (classified by their dimensions 3V, 5V, and 8V), and light duty Fractional Horsepower belt (classified by their dimensions 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L). Their counterpart cogged belt is classified by the letter X. For example, Classical V cog belt will be 3VX, 5VX, etc.

V Belt drives are surely beneficial to use in the B2B industrial sector. These drive systems are also known by the name of Friction Drives since power is conducted as an outcome of the belt’s obedience to the pulley.
These v belt systems are a great economical option for commercial, industrial, agricultural, home appliance and even automotive applications.
One should also realize that v belt drives are even very easy to install, dampen any shock load and don’t need any lubrication.

Poly v belts are produced in a monobloc design and made up of multiple v shaped ribs. These ribs run along the inside length of the belt, as appose to across the belt like the teeth on a timing belt. The v shaped ribs are designed to run on a pulley with corresponding grooves, which the ribs fit neatly into. The belt transmits torque by contact of the belt rib flanks and the pulley grooves. The belts one piece structure guarantees an even distribution of tension across the width of the pulley where the belt is in contact.
The poly v belt comprises of a number of ribs made from a compound of high abrasion resistance elastomer, geometrically optimised for maximum contact with the pulley. A polyester or aramid cord runs through the belt for strength whilst the reinforced rubber backing protects the cord and the radial stability of the belt. The rubber backing can also be used to transfer power onto a smooth pulley. This combination of design features and materials allows the poly v belt to counter-bend, enabling a single belt to drive several accessories from both sides of the belt.
A significant benefit of the poly v belt is its compactness. Designed to have a larger contact surface area than that of the traditional V-belt or Flat Belt, the poly v belt can operate at a minimum pulley diameter of just 9mm, compared to a minimum pulley diameter of 50mm with a traditional V-belt. Improved transmission ratio is also possible (Poly V 1:60 vs V-belt 1:20) removing the need for stepped pulleys. In addition to these space saving features, reduced belt width is also possible for a given geometry and the same power transfer. The poly v belt also offers reduced noise and vibration levels. Thanks to the monobloc design, there is no need to match belts like with v-belts, reducing maintenance and eliminating belt differential ‘flapping’. Add to the above the increased lifespan on a poly v belt – which can last up to four times longer than a V-belt – and it is no surprise that the poly v belt is fast becoming the chosen belt for designers, manufacturers and industrial applications.

Rubber conveyor belt is designed for use as an abrasion resistant and impact resistant rubber sheet and is ideal for mounting pads, mechanical sealing strips and industrial flapping. In general construction and industrial use where durability is imperative and ordinary rubber is not up to the task, this rubber product is used to maximize the life of the project.
Rubber conveyor belt is available in a 2ply and 3ply fabric insertions in the rubber sheet. The 2ply is 7.5 millimeters thick, and the 3ply is 10.5 millimeters thick. This is the most abrasion and tear resistant rubber product ideal for industrial bumpers and skirting.
This rubber conveyor belt is made from a blend of Neoprene, SBR, and Nitrile Rubbers with a smooth, finished surface. It is used to maximize the life of a project where durability is imperative and ordinary rubber is not sufficient.

The types of V belts and their standard sizes:
There are three common V belt types: Classical V belt (classified by their dimensions from A to E), Narrow V series (classified by their dimensions 3V, 5V, and 8V), and light duty Fractional Horsepower belt (classified by their dimensions 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L). Their counterpart cogged belt is classified by the letter X. For example, Classical V cog belt will be 3VX, 5VX, etc.
Classical V belt:
Conventional V belt is the most common V belt type and has been around the longest. The Initial classical V design replaced leather belts by taking over their applications in a wide range of industries, such as agriculture, ventilation, and industrial machinery. Classical V belts are capable of covering a load range from fractional(less than 1 HP) to 500 horsepower. They are less efficient than narrow V belt and generally contribute to higher bearing loads. However, classical V belts have high tolerance for poor operating conditions.
Narrow V series:
Narrow belts are optimum for load transfer and force distribution because of their greater depth to width ratio. That’s their advantage over classical V belts. Narrow belts are also suitable for drives with high belt speeds, again, for their powerfully compact size. Narrow belts have the ability to transmit up to three times the horsepower of classical V belt in the same drive space. They can handle drives from 1 to 1000 horsepower.
Fractional Horsepower Belt:
FHP light duty V belts are used most often as single belt on drives of 1 horsepower or less. Its design is for relatively light loads. The common applications for this V belt type are domestic washing machines, small fans, refrigerators, and garage equipment. Light V belts should never be used on any heavy-duty industrial applications, even if they seem to fit the classical or narrow V belt pulley grooves.

General
Fan belts are the workhorse within industry, available from virtually every distributor and adaptable to practically any drive. They are presently available in a wide variety of standard sizes and types, for transmitting almost any amount of load power.
Operation
Typically, fan belts drives operate best at speeds between 1500 to 6000 ft/min ( 8 and 30 m/s). For standard fan belts, ideal peak capacity speed is approximately 4500 ft/min (23 m/s). Narrow fan belts, however, will operate up to 10,000 ft/min (50 m/s).
