How does the combination of fiberglass core and neoprene improve the durability of Rubber belt in harsh environments?

In modern industrial applications, transmission systems often face various harsh working conditions, including high temperature, humidity, grease pollution and mechanical load. These harsh environments place extremely high demands on the core component of the transmission system, the synchronous belt. In order to meet these challenges, the combination of glass fiber core and chloroprene rubber has become a key technical means in the manufacture of synchronous belts. This combination not only improves the durability of Rubber Synchronous Belt, but also ensures the stability and reliability of the transmission system in extreme working environments.

Advantages of glass fiber core
As one of the core materials of synchronous belts, glass fiber core has excellent strength and flexibility. The high strength of glass fiber enables the synchronous belt to withstand huge tension without breaking or deforming. This is especially important for mechanical equipment that requires precise positioning and transmission. In addition, the glass fiber core also has good fatigue resistance, which enables the synchronous belt to maintain a stable working state under long-term high-frequency use.

Another major advantage of the glass fiber core is its excellent heat resistance. In high temperature environments, ordinary metal or synthetic materials are prone to thermal expansion, which can cause the synchronous belt to deteriorate in performance or even fail. However, the glass fiber material can still maintain its mechanical properties at high temperatures, thus ensuring the reliable operation of the synchronous belt under high-temperature working conditions.

The protective effect of chloroprene rubber

The wear resistance of chloroprene rubber is also one of its key advantages as the outer material of the synchronous belt. During high-load transmission, high-frequency friction will occur between the synchronous belt and the gear. The wear-resistant layer on the surface of chloroprene rubber can effectively reduce the wear caused by friction, thereby extending the service life of the synchronous belt.

The comprehensive advantages of the combination of the two
When the glass fiber core is combined with chloroprene rubber, this combination material brings the advantages of both to the extreme. The glass fiber core provides the mechanical strength and stability of the synchronous belt under high load and high temperature environments, while the chloroprene rubber provides the synchronous belt with comprehensive protection from the external environment. Through this combination, the manufactured synchronous belt not only performs well in mechanical properties, but also maintains reliable operation for a long time in extreme environments.

In addition, the lightweight characteristics of this combined material cannot be ignored. The low density of glass fiber and chloroprene rubber allows the synchronous belt to maintain high strength while effectively controlling its weight. This is of great significance in application scenarios that require efficient transmission and focus on energy consumption.

  • Rubber Wide - Angle Belt
    Rubber Wide - Angle Belt
    The wide-angle belt is a new type of industrial transmission belt developed on the basis of the general industrial V-belt technology.
    They are all driven by the friction diagram on both sides of the belt. The wedge angle of the general V-belt is 40° and the wedge angle
    of the wide-angle transmission belt is 60°.
    According to the principle of transmission dynamics, as the wedge angle of the wide-angle belt increases, the area supported by the
    two transmission sides naturally increases, thus giving rise to the following advantages over the general V-belt:
    1. The load of the wide-angle belt is evenly distributed and the wear resistance is improved.
    2. The contact area between the belt and the pulley increases and the transmission force is increased.
    3. It improves the concave deformation of the drive belt core and strengthens the drive characteristics.
    4. After the wide-angle belt is installed and used, the problem of belt tension drop is improved.
    It is the above-mentioned advantages of the wide-angle belt that are widely used and affirmed by the precision machinery industry.

  • Rubber Conveyor Belt
    Rubber Conveyor Belt
    The conveyor belt is composed of surface adhesive, core, and layer glue. In addition, a layer of buffer cloth can be added to the use of high drop impact to make it more impact-resistant.

    The surface adhesive
    With natural rubber and synthetic rubber as raw materials and in order to enhance wear resistance, crack resistance, aging resistance, and other properties, the surface adhesive has various characteristics such as wear resistance, cutting resistance, heat resistance, flame resistance, cold resistance, acid and alkali resistance, oil resistance, static electricity resistance and so on.
    Cloth layer core
    The cloth layer is composed of natural fiber or chemical fiber alone or a combination of the two, has the same quality after single-step treatment by a mature process, And has good adhesion with rubber.
    The adhesive layer
    The adhesive layer is very important for the adhesive force between the layers of the core of the conveyor belt that is repeatedly flexed. Especially for high-tension conveyor belts, a layer of adhesive with less buckling stress and less fatigue due to internal stress must be used.
    Specifications and models can be customized according to customer requirements, with a thickness ranging from 2.0 mm to 8.0 mm.
