CONTI® SYNCHROFLEX Timing Belts

Product catalog summary
General Overview
CONTI® SYNCHROFLEX Timing Belts are high-performance belts made from polyurethane and steel cord tension members, designed for synchronous power transmission in various applications such as office machinery, textile machinery, and machine tools. They are known for their high power transmission capacity, precision, and durability.
Specifications and Properties
The belts are temperature resistant from -30°C to +80°C, with some versions like the GEN III capable of withstanding up to +100°C. They are hydrolysis stabilized, resistant to aging, and can withstand simple oils, fats, and petrol. Mechanically, they offer low noise, wear resistance, and high efficiency (up to 98%).
Manufacturing Process
The belts are produced using a cast moulded polyurethane process, ensuring high pitch accuracy and a strong bond with steel tension members. This process allows for the production of belts with lengths ranging from 55 mm to 6000 mm and widths up to 300 mm.
Types of Timing Belts
  • AT High Capacity Profile: Features larger tooth volume and stronger tension members, offering up to 50% improved performance over standard profiles.
  • T Standard Profile: Classical trapezoidal profile suitable for standard drive tasks and high bending stress applications.
  • DL Version: Double-sided belts for multiple-shaft drives with different rotational directions.
  • Imperial Profile: Available in M (MXL) size for applications in imperial units.
  • Serrated Metric Pitch Profile: Used in fine mechanical technology requiring small dimensions.
Antistatic Properties
Antistatic properties are achieved through an antistatic coating or a special conductive polyurethane mixture, with belts available in black. These belts are designed to prevent static electricity build-up, which can pose ignition risks.
Applications
These belts are used in a wide range of applications, including office machinery, electronic data processing equipment, textile machinery, wood processing machinery, machine tools, printing machinery, pumps, compressors, and building machinery.
Performance Enhancements
The GEN III belts have improved tensile force, reduced flange friction, and lower running noise. They are suitable for temperatures up to +100°C and have a longer lifespan with increased load-bearing teeth force distribution.
Specifications:
  • Power Transmission: Capabilities range from ≤ 0.5 kW to beyond 200 kW.
  • Rotational Speed: Operates at speeds from approximately 6,500 min–1 to 20,000 min–1.
  • Peripheral Speed: Varies from approximately 40 ms–1 to 80 ms–1.
  • Timing Pulleys: Start from z=10 to z=18 depending on the belt type.
Procedures and Recommendations
  • Special timing belt designs can increase rpm and peripheral speed parameters.
  • Timing belts should be guided to prevent lateral run-off, typically using flanges.
  • The correct pre-tension force should be set using frequency measuring methods.
Standards and Tolerances
  • Belt length measurement is conducted according to DIN 7721 standards.
  • Length tolerances are specified for different belt lengths, ranging from ±0.15 mm to ±1.20 mm.
  • Width tolerances are also specified for various belt types.
Safety and Load Considerations
  • The permissible values for tooth shear strength, tension cord strength, and flexibility should not be exceeded under unfavorable conditions.
  • Safety factors are required for drives with transmission into higher speeds.
  • Consideration of start-up characteristics and braking effects on load is necessary.
Guidance and Installation
  • Ensure high axis parallelity and flush alignment of all pulleys for optimal guiding features.
  • Timing belts can be used as angular drives, but they must be crossed (twisted) and not deflected from the running plane.
Technical Data
The document includes technical data for AT high-performance timing belts, such as tooth shear strength, tension member strength, and flexibility. It provides tables with values for different belt widths and rotational speeds, highlighting the need for special drive designs for speeds over 20000 rpm or belt speeds over 80 m/s.
Order Information
Order examples and specifications for CONTI® SYNCHROFLEX timing belts are provided, including available versions and preferred belt widths. The document emphasizes the importance of consulting for special drive designs when necessary.
