What are the factors determining the optimum tensioning force in belt drives?
It is related to friction coefficient, transmission wheel diameter, drive speed, length of belt and its material.
Common tensioning method:1, use the guide rail (chute) to adjust the tension degree of the belt,2, the use of swing adjustment of the seat to adjust.3, the use of floating swing frame automatic adjustment,4, use tensioning wheel to adjust the tension of belt regularly.
Because the belt is on the belt and the belt pulley to transmit motion and power, so in the assembly should be between the belt and pulley has a certain pressure, the belt tensioning and maintain adequate initial tension. By the use of a longer period of time, due to the long-term will be affected by tension, permanent deformation, elongation after transmission belt, reducing the friction between the belt and pulley, to enable transmission capacity is reduced, often slipping phenomenon, in order to maintain proper tension, reduce slippage, need to adjust the tensioning device.
