The Long Length open-end belt is an alternative to chains for reversing positioning drives. Open-end belts are suitable for applications with linear motion (automatic doors, conveyor belts in warehouses, elevators), for accurate positioning (machine tools, machines with x-y coordinates) and bi-directional drives (computers, printers and office machines). Gates Long Length belts are available in various sizes, constructions and tooth profiles to cater to a wide range of power, speed and applications.
Strengths
• Enables exact positioning so that the belt is ideal for applications with repetitive movements.
• Powerful power transmission thanks to smart materials and tooth profiles.
• Positive power transmission with little tension on the shafts.
• Length stability thanks to tensile cords with a high modulus.
• Easy to mount.
Low maintenance.
• No contamination by lubricants.
