Belts with inch pitch - XL, L, H, XH
The classic trapezoidal tooth profile represents the original design of the toothed belt teeth. This tooth profile is normally used for transport applications. It offers a good choice of steps and can be used with printed profile straps. The profile of the tooth is rather low and with a large surface on its tip, therefore it ensures a good support on the sliding transport surfaces.
Belts with T profile - T2.5, T5, T10, T20
These trapoezoidal profiles with metric pitch are similar to those with pitch in inches and are also commonly used for transport applications, but with respect to the steps in inches the sector of contact of the tooth is slightly deeper. Tooth enlargement is more reliable, but the game can be slightly higher.
Belts with AT profile - AT5, AT10, AT20
This profile has been developed to allow a greater load capacity together with reduced play. Stronger and more rigid teeth make these belts the ideal solution for linear positioning and movement control, but may require larger diameter pulleys. |
