Companion Spotlight: Synchronous Pulleys
Timing belt drives
Self-guiding Conidrive timing belt drives feature the N10 belt-pulley system with an offset conical projection profile on the bearing surface to ensure positive fit without pulley flanges, even for narrow belts.
Features & benefits
Nondirectional 10-mm pitch belts offer same meshing in both directions of travel
Polyurethane, reinforced with steel tensile-cords for strength
500 to 1.000-mm lengths; belt stock also available in 50-m lengths
Single, double, triple-row types featuring nonchordal action
Fairloc integral hubs create a transverse wedge that remains attached to the solid portion of the hub on one side
