The flat belt has a small bending section and low bending loss. The friction engagement on the outer surface of the pulley needs only a small cross-section and makes the flat belt very flexible, resulting in negligible energy losses. Flat belts, with their grooveless design, minimize energy loss and wear, as they don’t wedge into or pull out of grooves.
Other advantages of flat belts include high productivity, long belt and pulley life, energy savings, minimal downtime and low noise from smooth belt operation. Flat belt installation is secure and simple. Tension the belt to the calculated initial tension by applying simple measurement marks on the belt. There is constant tension on the belt so there is no need to re-tension the belt.
Other advantages of flat belts include:
Tractions layers include Polyamide, Polyester, Aramid and Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU):
Polyamide are well known for its reliability and long belt life. Robust and highly resilient, copes with intermittent overload and high temperatures. The adhesive-based Thermofix joining method is available.
Polyester are low energy consumption, highly flexible, simple to join, reliable performance. The Flexproof and/or Quickmelt adhesive-free joining methods are available.
Aramid has low energy consumption and high E-modulus. It is easy to join and highly flexible. It is a good choice for long belt, because of high accuracy and short take-up for belt speed and number of revolutions (RPM)
Polyester and Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) are known for their extremely high wear resistance, excellent tear strength, high elasticity, great low temperature performance. The Flexproof and/or Quickmelt adhesive-free joining methods are available.

Power Transmission Flat Belts are customized to two main industry needs:
1. Textile industry (yarn processing, cards, draw frames, roving frames, ring spinning frames, OE machines, twisting machines, texturing machines, winders, overhead cleaners)
2. Paper and postal industry (calenders, paper mills, pulpers, slitters, web feeders, folders, finishing machines, converting lines, letter sorters)
Flat belts are used for superior performance conveying and light-duty power transmission. They are most suitable for applications requiring smaller pulleys and greater central distances. Flat belts can link between both inner and outer wheels, available in either endless or welded constructions. They offer excellent power transmission efficiency, affordability, ease of use and installation.
Flat belts feature a rectangular shape and sit on top of flat pulleys to function. Flat belts can transfer power from one side or both sides according to the design. Flat belts are utilized in various industrial machinery like sawmills, water pumps, fans, compressors, separators, belt conveyors and machine tools such as grinders.
Flat belts have the capacity to transmit up to 150 horsepower per inch at speeds surpassing 20,000 feet per minute.
A global leading supplier of high performance belts for various applications such as machine, agricultural engineering, automotive industry, household industry and others. Plenty of ready stock for up to 30,000 different SKUs. Custom sizes and materials available. Global shipping.
