Application of flat belts in advanced machine constructions

Abstract

The paper presents some issues of flat belts use in advanced machine designs. These belts allow realizing for the most complex drive and conveyor solutions as well as complex functions. They work in the drives at the highest speed, carry the highest torque, work with wheels arranged in various planes. With the use of modern material for belts, it is possible to obtain gearboxes with a wide range of applications, which should make them the most popular in machine construction.
