V-Belt Drives

V-Belts are mostly used in places where a large amount of power is to be transmitted by wedging action from one pulley to another when the two pulleys are near to each other .In practice, the designer has to select a belt section from the manufacturer's catalogue. Our software package covers selection of both types of V-Belt Drives- Classical and Wedge section. The number of belts to be selected can also be varied as per the user's requirements. While designing this package, service factor, arc of contact correction and belt length correction factors have been considered. This software enables you to select from an exhaustive range the appropriate drive in terms of power, speed and size. System International (SI) units are used throughout this module.
