Belt Drives

Belt drives depend on friction to operate, but excessive friction wastes energy and rapidly wears the belt. Factors that affect belt friction include belt tension, contact angle, and the materials used to make the belt and pulleys. Belt tension. Power transmission is a function of belt tension. However, also increasing with tension is stress (load) on the belt and bearings.
