Why are PU synchronous belt so widely used in office equipment, printing machinery and glass processing?

PU (polyurethane) synchronous belt play an indispensable role in modern industry, especially in office equipment, printing machinery and glass processing. The reason why PU synchronous belt occupy an important position in these industries is inseparable from their unique material properties and excellent performance. This article will explore the key characteristics of PU timing belts and how these characteristics meet the needs of office equipment, printing machinery and glass processing industries.

1. Stable length and high-precision transmission

In office equipment, printing machinery and glass processing, high-precision transmission systems are essential. PU timing belts have excellent length stability due to their use of wire core or Kevlar wire core structure, which enables the timing belt to maintain accurate transmission and positioning during long-term use.

Office equipment: such as printers and copiers need to process a large number of documents in a short time. The precise transmission of PU timing belts can ensure the accuracy of paper delivery and print head movement to avoid errors.

Printing machinery: In the high-speed printing process, any slight transmission error will affect the printing quality. The high-precision transmission of PU timing belts can ensure the synchronization of each printing step and improve the final quality of the product.

Glass processing: Glass cutting and processing require highly precise positioning and transmission to ensure the accuracy of the cutting line. The stable length characteristics of PU timing belts can provide continuous high-precision transmission, thereby achieving precision processing.

2. Low noise and lightweight design

Office environments and printing workshops usually need to maintain a low noise level to improve work efficiency and operating comfort. PU timing belts can reduce vibration and noise during transmission due to their lightweight structure and optimized design.

Office equipment: For example, in printers and scanners, low-noise transmission systems help create a quiet office environment and improve user experience.

Printing machinery: In large printing plants, the low-noise operation of machines can reduce the noise exposure level of operators, reduce work fatigue, and improve production efficiency.

Glass processing: Due to the high-precision requirements during glass processing, reducing transmission noise not only helps to improve the stability of processing, but also avoids unnecessary vibrations from affecting glass products.

3. Excellent oil resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance

PU timing belt material has good oil resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, so that it can still maintain stable performance in harsh industrial environments. These characteristics enable PU timing belts to be used for a long time in various harsh environments without affecting their transmission effect.

Office equipment: Although office equipment is usually in a relatively clean environment, long-term mechanical operation will inevitably accumulate oil. The oil resistance of PU timing belts ensures that it can still maintain transmission efficiency after long-term use.

Printing machinery: Ink, detergent and other chemicals may be involved in the printing process. The corrosion resistance of PU timing belts ensures that it is not easily corroded by chemicals, extending the service life of the belt.

Glass processing: The high friction and high frequency of use in glass processing place strict requirements on the wear resistance of the transmission belt. The high wear resistance of PU timing belts ensures that it can still maintain good performance during frequent use, thereby avoiding downtime or precision loss due to wear of the transmission belt.

4. Excellent thermoplasticity and diversified customization capabilities

PU timing belts have good thermoplasticity and can be customized in various sizes according to customer needs, which enables them to meet the needs of various special application scenarios. Whether it is a standard product or a customized solution, PU timing belts can provide the most suitable transmission solution.

Office equipment: Different models of office equipment may require transmission belts of different sizes. The thermoplasticity of PU timing belts allows manufacturers to quickly customize products according to specific needs to meet the special requirements of various equipment.

Printing machinery: The complexity and diversity of printing equipment require that the specifications of the transmission belts can adapt to different application scenarios. The diversified customization capabilities of PU timing belts enable them to meet various needs from small printing presses to large printing equipment.

Glass processing: Due to the high precision requirements of glass processing equipment, the size and specifications of the transmission belts must be very precise. The thermoplasticity of PU timing belts enables them to be precisely customized to ensure the best transmission performance of each device.

  • 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.
