Poly Chain GT2


New Poly Chain GT2 is Gates most
powerful synchronous belt, ideally
suited for low-speed (below 500
rpm), high torque industrial applications. This improved belt features
a polyurethane body with a robust
aramid fiber tensile cord and new
nylon tooth facingimprovements
that enable increased load-carrying
capacity. Size for size, space for
space, Poly Chain GT2 transmits
up to 30 percent more power than
its predecessor. It also permits the
design of more compact, lighter
weight drives that deliver more
power in less space than any
other belt drive system available.

Poly Chain GT2 is the result of


innovative state-of-the-art design
and engineering. The body and
teeth are made of a durable polyurethane compound, specially
blended for uncompromising
adhesion to the tensile cords and
heavy nylon tooth facing, allowing
for increased tooth shear strength
and excellent flex life. The result is
the toughest belt on the market
by far, virtually immune to abrasion
and chemical attack.
Poly Chain GT2 performs flawlessly, even under the harshest
operating conditions.

The aramid fiber tensile cords constitute the belts muscle. The cord
provides exceptional flex fatigue life
and its high impact strength makes
the belt resistant to shock and
surge loading. Poly Chain GT2 drives
dramatically reduce maintenance
costs, expensive production downtime and noise problems associated
with the metal-to-metal contact
of roller chain drives.
The nylon fabric covering the teeth
is highly resistant to oil, chemicals,
pollutants, corrosion and abrasion,
while providing excellent tooth shear
strength and durability. Poly Chain
GT2 belts are exceptionally durable
and remain fully operational under
extreme temperatures ranging
from 65F up to +185F
(-54C to +85C).

Patented tooth facing delivers


more strength, greater tooth
shear strength, reduced friction and
eliminates the need for lubrication.
Poly Chain GT2 belt drives are
virtually maintenance free.

Taper-Lock
sprockets & bushings.

Polyurethane compound resists oils, chemicals,


pollutants and abrasion. Its tough
and performs in temperatures ranging
from 65F to +185F.

Poly Chain GT2 belt drive systems


feature a new line of sprockets
that have been redesigned to carry
the new increased belt power ratings. These new sprockets utilize
the Taper-Lock bushing system
that has been tested and proven
in industry for many years. This
allows easy sprocket installation
and removal and keeps the hubs
narrow so the length-thru-bore
dimension is less than ever before.
Now, Poly Chain GT2 sprockets will
fit on those applications with short
shafts, with room to spare.

Greater flexibility in design.

In addition, the left-justified hub


design allows shaft mounting close
to outboard bearings. This keeps
the center of load dimension small,
so overhung load values are as
low as possiblelower than any
competitive belt drive system.

How do you calculate


the cost of downtime?

Poly Chain GT2 is the ideal


candidate for low-speed and speed
reducer applications. Its high load
carrying capacity is unmatched by
any competitive belt drive system,
allowing drive designs in widths
narrower than ever before,
approaching roller chain
drive systems.

Poly Chain GT2 sprocket/bushing


systems use less space than conventional sprockets and sheaves.
In comparison with most competitive drives (roller chain or rubber),
Poly Chain GT2 belt drives are as
little as one-half the width and 50
percent lighter. Yet they can deliver
over five times more horsepower
than standard rubber synchronous
systems in the same space.
Savings like these in space and
weight allow for a wide latitude
in design flexibility.

The normal downtime costs


and lost productivity resulting
from maintenance and chain
replacement could add up to

Aramid fiber tensile


cords provide extraordinary
load carrying capability. For the same
weight, they have a higher tensile
modulus than steel for incredible
strength and virtually zero elongation.
Exceptional flex fatigue characteristics
combined with the ability to absorb
shock loads make Poly Chain GT2
the ideal drive system choice for
low-speed high-torque applications.

hundredsif not thousandsof


dollars per drive per year. You have
no choice. If you use roller chain
drives, you must maintain them or
they will break down. Consequently,
regular scheduled maintenance on
your production equipment must
be accomplished to maintain
these roller chain drives, often
resulting in extensive downtime.
Elimination of this downtime
would clearly result in increased
production output.

SAFETY POLICY
WARNING! Be Safe! Gates belt drive systems are very reliable when used
safely and within Gates application recommendations. However, there are
specific USES THAT MUST BE AVOIDED due to the risk of serious injury or
death. These prohibited misuses include:

Primary In Flight Aircraft Systems


Do not use Gates belts, pulleys or sprockets on aircraft, propeller or rotor
drive systems or in-flight accessory drives. Gates belt drive systems are not
intended for aircraft use.
Lift Systems
Do not use Gates belts, pulleys or sprockets in applications that depend
solely upon the belt to raise/lower, support or sustain a mass without an
independent safety backup system. Gates belt drive systems are not
intended for use in applications requiring special Lift or Proof type chains
with minimum tensile strength or certified/test tensile strength requirements.
Braking Systems
Do not use Gates belts, pulleys or sprockets in applications that depend
solely upon the belt to slow or stop a mass, or to act as a brake without an
independent safety backup system. Gates belt drive systems are not
intended to function as a braking device in emergency stop systems.

Poly Chain GT2 Low-Speed Design Load Calculations


For use when designing Poly Chain GT2 belt drives for gear
reducer output shafts and general roller chain conversions.
When designing Poly Chain GT2 belt drives to be used in
low-speed applications (generally 500 rpm and less), traditional
drive design procedures may yield drives with greater-than-needed
capacity. These design load calculations are intended primarily for
applications on the output side of gear reducers, and will yield Poly
Chain GT2 belt drives competitive in both cost and performance
with roller chain and superior to other belt drives.
A recent power transmission industry publication estimated that
half of all U.S. motors operate at less than 60 percent of their rated

load and one third operate at below 50 percent of their rated load.
Significant power losses can also occur in speed reducers, further
reducing the actual torque loads carried by belt drives.
In order to prevent over sizing belt drives for these low speed applications, the design should be based upon the actual system running load. Because the actual running load may or may not be
known, the following three approaches are recommended to assist
the designer in determining the appropriate design load:

I. Actual Operating Loads Known


In those cases where the actual operating load is known, design the
belt drive for the actual operating load rather than for a load based
upon the motor name plate. Use Formula 1 to calculate the proper
drive design load based upon motor load (name plate or measured)
when the belt drive will be installed on the reducer output shaft.

Design Load

Design Load = (Motor Load ) (Service Factor )

Service Factor: From Table 1
% Efficiency: From Speed Reducer Catalog (also refer to

combustion engines with hydraulic couplings/torque converters.

Additional Guidelines
There are many driveN machines using, or potentially designed to use, roller chain drive systems. When converting these to Poly Chain GT2 drives, consider the following additional guidelines.

Do not overlook the torque multiplying effect of belt drives and speed reducers when calculating with torque loads.
Engineering judgment should be used in determining a design load for non-standard motors with high starting loads (NEMA C, NEMA D,
Direct Current, etc.).

See the Reference Data Section for guidance in calculating speed reducer efficiency.

II. Actual Operating Loads Unknown With Measurements
When the actual system running load is unknown, it must be estimated. This can be done with reasonable accuracy by measuring
the average electrical amperage draw from the motor while under
load, and calculating a motor horsepower output. Speed reducer
efficiency can also be calculated and applied as well.

Three Phase A.C. Motors


Formula 4

Horsepower * =

Amps: as measured (average of 3 phases)


Volts: as measured
Eff: % Eff/100 (from Motor Catalog or Motor Nameplate)
Power Factor: as measured or from Motor Catalog

Use Formulas 2-4 for the most accurate results if all of the needed
formula values are available.
Because values for motor efficiency and power factor may not be
readily available, a common industry accepted practice is to proportion the motor name plate horsepower rating with the motor name
plate amperage rating and actual measured amperage value. Use
Formula 5 for a reasonable estimate of actual motor horsepower
load.

power factor and efficiency values.

III. Actual Operating Loads Unknown Without Measurements


It is not always possible to determine actual motor operating loads,
as it may not be possible to take amperage draw measurements
from the motor. In those cases, the following guidelines should be
used with caution, as they may not yield successful results in every

case. They should, however, yield at least comparable, if not improved, service compared to the old roller chain drive.
The procedures which follow in Table 2 should yield at least comparable, if not improved, service compared to the old roller chain drive.

belt drive design horsepower load, proceed to step 2 of the Belt

Actual values vary and are motor dependent. If catalog data are not
available, typical values are as follows:

Reference Information

Power Factor
Standard Motor: 0.80 typical (range from 0.55 to 0.90)

Speed Reducer Efficiency


If the efficiency of a speed reducer is not published, it can be calculated indirectly from the catalog data. Speed reducer manufacturers generally publish rated input horsepower and rated output
torque for each speed reducer unit in their product line. In order to
calculate speed reducer efficiency, either the rated output torque
must be converted to output horsepower or the rated input horsepower must be converted to input torque. The torque/horsepower
conversion formulas are as follows:

High Efficiency Motor: 0.85 typical (range from 0.73 to


0.88)

Low-Speed Poly Chain GT2 Belt Drive Selection Procedure


For drive selections with shaft speeds less than 500 rpm
Selection of a Stock Poly Chain GT2 belt drive system involves
these eight steps:

1. Calculate The Design Horsepower


2. Select The Belt Pitch
3. Select The Sprockets and Belt Length
4. Select The Proper Belt Width
5. Check and Specify Stock Drive Components
6. Installation And Take-up
7. Calculate Belt Tensioning Requirements
8. Verify Speed Reducer Overhung Load

Nameplate hp Average Measured Amps


Nameplate Amps

Motor Load =

Procedure
B. The proper Low-Speed Service Factor is selected from
Table 1 Service Factors For Low-Speed Roller Chain
Drive Conversions on page 10. The selection is based on the
category of machinery being driven and the number of service
hours per day.

Sample Drive Selection Problem

Example

A blank Low-Speed Drive Design Information Sheet can be found


on page 19. This form provides a convenient method for collecting
data to properly design or convert to a Poly Chain GT2 belt drive.

An Ore Conveyor is found in the Uniform Load drive


group. Reading across to the right, the column heading
for 16-24 hours daily service shows that a 1.3 Service
Factor is recommended.

In this example, an ore conveyor is powered by an electric motor


directly connected to a speed reducer. A Poly Chain GT2 belt drive
is needed to transmit power from the speed reducer output shaft to
the conveyor shaft. The motor is a 5 horsepower, 1750 rpm normal
torque AC motor. The speed reducer is a worm gear type unit with a
50 to 1 speed ratio. The ore conveyor is to be driven at 20 5% rpm
and operates 24 hours per day 7 days a week. The center distance
between shafts is 50.0 inches, but can be altered 3.0 inches, if
necessary. The speed reducer output shaft has a 1.500 inch diameter and the conveyor shaft has a 2.000 inch diameter.

Example - Speed Reducer Efficiency Calculation

Speed Reducer Rated Input Load = 6.5 hp


Speed Reducer Rated Output Torque = 6210 lb -in.

Step 1 Calculate The Design Horsepower

Speed Reducer Rated Output Speed = 35 rpm

The Design Horsepower should be calculated as follows:

Design Horsepower = (Motor Load )

(Low -Speed Service Factor ) (Reducer Efficiency )

Procedure
A. The motor load can be determined by several methods as
explained in the Low-Speed Drive Load Calculations section
on pages 10-13. The method used for determining motor load
will depend on how much information is available on the application. A worksheet is provided on page 13 to help choose
which method is most appropriate given the information
known.
Example

This example demonstrates the Proportioned Amperage


Rating approach described in Formula 5 on page 11.

Motor = 5.00 hp (nameplate rating)

Rated Output hp
(Rated OutputTorque ) (OutputSpeed )
=
63025
(6210 lb -in ) ( 35rpm )
=
63025
Rated Output hp = 3.4
Rated Output Power
Rated Input Power
3.4hp
=
6.5hp
Reducer Efficiency = 0.53 or 53%
Reducer Efficiency =

Procedure
D. The Design Horsepower can now be determined by multiplying
these three values together.

Nameplate Amps = 7.0

Example - Design Horsepower Calculation

Measured Amps: Phase 1 = 4.1


Phase 2 = 4.4
Phase 3 = 4.2

Motor Load = 3.00 hp

Phase 1+ Phase 2 + Phase 3


3
4.1 amps + 4.4 amps + 4.2 amps
=
3
Average Measured Amps = 4.2 amps

Design Horsepower = (Motor Load )


(Low Speed Service Factor )
(Reducer Efficiency / 100)

Low -Speed Service Factor = 1.3


Reducer Efficiency = 53%

Average Measured Amps =

14

Procedure
C. The Reducer Efficiency is available from the speed reducer
name plate or manufacturers catalogs. Often the speed reducer efficiency is not provided directly in manufacturers catalog. In such cases the reducer efficiency must be calculated as
described on page 12.

Design Horsepower = 2.07 hp

The Gates Rubber Company

Low-Speed Poly Chain GT2 Belt Drive Design Procedure continued


Step 2 Select The Belt Pitch
Procedure
Using the Design Horsepower and the output speed of the speed
reducer, select the belt pitch from the Belt Pitch Selection Guide
Chart on page 25.

tion, the 49.56 inch value is the closest to the 50.00 inch
target. So, the 32 groove DriveR sprocket, 56 groove
DriveN sprocket, and 14MGT-3136 (224 teeth) belt combination is selected. Also note that the Belt Length Correction Factor is 1.12 with a center distance of 49.56
inches.

Example

Step 4 Select The Proper Belt Width

Design Horsepower = 2.07 hp


Reducer Output Speed = 35 rpm

Procedure

Locate 35 rpm on the RPM of Faster Shaft scale on the


left side of the chart and move over to where the 2.07 Design Horsepower line intersects. The intersection falls
within the 14mm pitch section.

Horsepower Rating Tables are located on pages 62-70 for


standard belt pitches and stock belt widths. The base horsepower rating is given in the upper table as a function of the speed
(rpm) of the faster shaft and diameter of the small sprocket. The
speed of the faster shaft is located in the left hand column. Across
the top are various stock sprocket sizes. The base horsepower rating of a given sprocket, at a specific speed, is the point at which the
rpm row and the sprocket size column intersect.

Step 3 Select The Sprockets and Belt Length


Procedure
A. Determine The Belt Drive Speed Ratio: The speed ratio can be
calculated by dividing the speed (rpm) of the faster shaft by the
speed (rpm) of the slower shaft.
Example

Reducer Output Speed = 35 rpm


Ore Conveyor Speed = 20 rpm

rpm of faster shaft 35


Speed Ratio =
=
= 1.75
rpm of slower shaft 20
B. Select The Sprocket Combination and Belt Length: Referring to the Stock Drive Selection Tables on pages 28-61, find
the proper set of tables for the belt pitch (8mm or 14mm) found
in Step 2. Looking down the speed ratio column, find the value
which most closely matches the belt drive speed ratio required.
Reading across the selected speed ratio line, find the stock
DriveR and DriveN sprocket combination available. Reading
further across, locate the belt drive center distance which most
closely matches the target center distance specified. The belt
sizes are listed across the top of the table for each corresponding center distance.
Multiple sprocket combinations will often be available for a
given speed ratio. In such cases, selection of the proper drive
combination will depend on the center distance required, minimum or maximum required sprocket diameters and speed reducer overhung load requirements.
After selecting possible sprocket combinations and center distances, record the belt length (top of column) and the length
factor (bottom of column).
Example

Belt pitch = 14mm


Belt Drive Speed Ratio = 1.750
Center Distance = 50.00 3.00 in. (from the problem
statement)
Refer to the 14mm Pitch Stock Drive Selection Tables on
pages 42-61. Reading down the Speed Ratio Column locate 1.750 on page 52. In this case, there are three different drive combinations available for a 1.750 Speed Ratio.
Checking the center distance values for each combina-

This basic horsepower rating must be corrected for speed down


speed ratios, and for the belt length selected. The following formula
should be used to calculate the total drive horsepower rating:
Rated Drive Horsepower = [Rated Base Horsepower
+ Added Horsepower for Speed Ratio]
(Belt Length Correction Factor)

Referring to the Speed Ratio Add-On Factor Table, select a value


based upon the drive operating speed and the speed ratio. This
value should be added to the basic horsepower rating. Multiply the
corrected rating by the applicable Belt Length Correction Factor determined in Step 3B or from the Belt Length Correction Factor Table. The corrected horsepower rating must equal or exceed design
horsepower.
Where there are several choices, space limitations may control the
selection. In addition, the following guidelines should be considered:
1. Larger sprockets result in reduced belt width.
2. Larger sprockets yield longer drive service life.
3. Avoid drives where the belt width exceeds the smaller
sprocket diameter.
4. Avoid drives where center distance is greater than 8 times
the diameter of the smaller sprocket. Refer to Engineering
Section I-10 on page 101 for additional details.
Example

Referring to the 14mm pitch Horsepower Rating Table for


20mm Wide belts on page 66. Read down the left hand
column for RPM of Faster Shaft and locate 35 rpm.
Read the sprocket sizes listed across the top of the table
and locate the 32 groove, 5.614 inch P.D. column. Read
across the RPM row and down the sprocket size column
until the two intersect at a Rated Base Horsepower of
1.84 HP.
Next, referencing the Speed Ratio Add-On Correction Table, find the listing for a 1.750 speed ratio. An add-on
factor of 0.07 hp is listed. Then, referencing the Belt
Length Correction Factor Table, find the listing for a
14MGT-3136 belt. A correction factor of 1.12 is listed.

Rated Drive Horsepower = 2.14 hp
The Corrected Horsepower Rating of 2.14 hp exceeds the
Design Horsepower target of 2.07 hp. So, a belt width of
20mm is acceptable.

Step 5 Check and Specify Stock Drive Components


Procedure
A. Check the sprockets selected against any special design
requirements using the dimensions provided in the Sprocket
Specifications Tables on pages 72-77. Use flange diameters
when checking against maximum diameter requirements.
B. Determine the bushing size required for each sprocket
and check bore sizes by using the Sprocket Specification Tables. From the Stock Bushing tables on pages 82-84, check the
bore range and keyway dimensions against the design requirements.
Example

Also from the sprocket data on page 74 we note that the


14MX-32S-20 sprocket requires a 2012 bushing and
the 14MX-56S-20 sprocket requires a 3525 bushing.
On page 82 in the bushing data table, a 2012 bushing
has a bore range of 1/2 to 2-1/8 inches, which includes
the 1-1/2 inch bore required for the driveR shaft. The
3525 bushing has a bore range from 1-3/16 to 3-15/16
inches, which includes the 2 inch bore required for the
driveN shaft.
C. Specify stock drive components using proper
designations.

Example

As can be seen in the Sprocket Specifications Table on


page 74, both of the sprockets are flanged. Therefore, an
additional allowance will be needed for installation over
flanged sprockets. The total installation and tensioning allowances, are shown below.
Installation Allowance = 0.16 in. +1.97 in. = 2.13 in.
Tensioning Allowance = 0.05 in.
Subtracting this from the nominal center distance value
gives a minimum center distance necessary for belt installation of (49.56 inch - 2.13 inch) = 47.43 inches. From
the problem statement, the center distance can be reduced down to 47.0 in. if needed. So, there is sufficient
center distance adjustment to easily install the belt.

Step 7 Calculate Belt Tensioning Requirements


Procedure
A. Calculate base static tension using appropriate Formula 12
on page 107. The m value is listed in Table 10 on page 107.
Example

Belt Pitch = 14mm


Belt Size = 14MGT-3136, 224 teeth (123.46 in. P.L.)
Belt Width = 20mm
DriveR Sprocket = 32 grooves (5.614 in. P.D.)
DriveR Shaft Speed = 35 rpm
DriveN Sprocket = 56 grooves (9.825 in. P.D.)
Actual Center Distance = 49.56 in.

S = (Sprocket Diameter) x (Shaft Speed) / 3822.76
= (5.614 in.) x (35 rpm) / 3822.76
S = 0.05

Step 6 Installation and Take-up


Procedure
Because of its high resistance to elongation (stretch), there is no
need to re-tension and take-up a Poly Chain GT2 belt drive. However, some adjustment must be provided when installing synchronous belt drives, as with nearly all power transmission systems, due
to manufacturing and assembly tolerances and initial tensioning re-

16

quirements. Table 11 on page 108 lists the standard installation


and take-up requirements for a given belt length. Additional center
distance adjustment is needed when installing the belt over flanged
sprockets (see Table 11 on page 108.)

D. Applying The Tension:


At the center of span (t), apply a force perpendicular to the belt
span large enough to deflect the belt 0.77 inch from its normal
free position. Be sure that the force is applied evenly across the
entire belt width. Note that one sprocket should be free to rotate
during the belt tensioning process.

t = 49.52 in.

Compare the measured deflection force with the range of minimum to maximum deflection forces calculated previously.

b. Calculate Minimum and Maximum belt deflection


forces referring to Formulas 13 and 14 on page 107:

1. If the measured deflection force is less than the minimum


recommended deflection force, the belt should be tightened.
2. If the measured deflection force is greater than the maximum recommended deflection force, the belt should be
loosened.

Low-Speed Poly Chain GT2 Drive Design Procedure continued


Advantages of the Low-Speed Drive Design Procedure
Having read through the Low-Speed Drive Design Procedure and
example, some may wonder if the extra steps required are really
worth the effort. Absolutely! Using the low-speed drive design techniques for drives operating at speeds less than 500 rpm can result
in a much smaller drive package at a lower cost. Outlined below is a
comparison of the Low-Speed Drive Design Procedure with the traditional drive design procedure. The benefits of designing with a
Low Speed Service Factor, Actual Horsepower Load, and Speed
Reducer Efficiency are demonstrated. Combining these techniques can result in a substantially narrower belt drive width which
saves space and reduces cost.
Comparison 1 Traditional Drive Design Procedure
The traditional drive design procedure is outlined on pages 22-25
and should still be used for belt drives operating at speeds greater
than 500 rpm. In the past this procedure was used to select all Poly
Chain belt drives. The new Low-Speed Drive Design Procedure
results in belt drive systems better sized for low speed power transmission system that typically utilize speed reducers and roller
chain.
Using the traditional design procedure to select the belt drive system for the Ore Conveyor example on pages 14-17 would result in a
much wider belt. The traditional design procedure does not account
for a low-speed service factor, the actual operating load of the motor, or speed reducer efficiency. Rather, the belt selection is based
purely on the name plate horsepower rating of the motor with a
standard service factor. For the Ore Conveyor example this would
mean a 5 hp name plate rating and a 1.7 service factor resulting in a
Design Horsepower for the belt drive of (5.00 hp) x (1.7) = 8.50 hp.
This is over 4 times the Design Horsepower of 2.07 hp determined
using the Low-Speed Drive Design Procedure. Referring to the
Horsepower Rating Tables on pages 66-70, a belt width of 90mm
is required for this higher 8.50 Design Horsepower Load using
the Traditional Design Method compared to a belt width of only
a 20mm for the 2.07 Design Horsepower Load using the
Low-Speed Design Method.
Comparison 2 Benefit of Low-Speed Service Factor
Using a low-speed service factor can reduce the required belt width
compared to a standard service factor value. The reason for this is
directly related to belt drive operating speeds. Detrimental affects
such as belt tensile cord fatigue and belt wear both occur during belt
drive operation, but accumulate in direct proportion to the operating
speed. Lower operating speeds result in less belt damage over time
allowing the use of less severe service factors in the belt drive selection process. Service factors especially for belt drives operating
at low speeds (500 rpm and less; includes many roller chain applications) are provided in Table 1Service Factors For Low-Speed
Roller Chain Drive Conversions on page 10.

1.3 low-speed service factor: Design Horsepower = (5.00 hp) x


(1.3) = 6.50 hp. Referring to the Horsepower Rating Tables on
pages 66-70, the belt width required for 6.50 Design Horsepower is only 68mm compared to the 90mm belt width required for the Traditional Design Method in Comparison 1.
Comparison 3 Benefit of Designing with Actual Motor Load
Typical belt drive selections are based upon motor nameplate
horsepower ratings. However, industry surveys estimate that half of
all U.S. motors operate at less than 60 percent of their rated load,
and one third operate at below 50 percent of their rated load. So,
sizing belt drives based on true operating loads can result in a more
compact sized belt drive system.
Continuing with the Ore Conveyor Example, the Proportioned Amperage Rating approach was used to calculate a Motor Load of 3.00
hp. Substituting the reduced 3.00 hp motor load: Design Horsepower = (3.00 hp) x (1.3) = 3.90 hp. Referring to the Horsepower
Rating Tables on pages 66-70, the belt width required for 3.90 Design Horsepower is only 37mm compared to the 68mm belt width
required in Comparison 2.
Comparison 4 Benefit of Adjusting for Speed Reducer Efficiency
Due to gear meshing, bearing friction, oil viscosity, etc. power
losses within speed reducers result in heat generation. So, not all
the power applied to the input shaft of a speed reducer is transmitted through to the output shaft. A speed reducers efficiency rating
defines how much power loss occurs from within. Typical speed reducer efficiencies can range as high as 97% for well designed helical gear type reducers to as low as 28% for some worm gear type
units (see Table 3 on page 12.) When a belt drive system is powered by the output shaft of a speed reducer, the actual horsepower
load carried by the belt is less due to the reducer power losses. Accounting for this reduced horsepower load when selecting a belt
drive system can result in a narrower belt width.
For the Ore Conveyor Example, the speed reducer efficiency was
calculated to be 53%. Accounting for this 53% efficiency: Design
Horsepower = (3.00 hp) x (1.3) x (53/100) = 2.07 hp. Referring to
the Horsepower Rating Tables on pages 66-70, the belt width required for 2.07 Design Horsepower is only 20mm compared to
the 37mm belt width required in Comparison 3.
Summary
Belt width using the Traditional Drive Design Procedure = 90mm.
Belt width using the Low-Speed Drive Design Procedure = 20mm.

Referring to the Ore Conveyor Example, a low-speed service factor


of 1.3 is recommended for this application. Substituting the reduced

Gates Poly Chain GT 2 Belt System Specifications


To satisfy a wide range of loads, speeds and applications, Poly
Chain GT2 Belts and Sprockets are made in a selection of sizes,
capacities and dimensions.
The three principal dimensions of a belt are:

pitch

pitch length

width

Belt pitch is the distance in millimeters between two adjacent tooth


centers as measured on the pitch line of the belt. Belt pitch length is
the total length (circumference) in millimeters as measured along
the pitch line. The theoretical pitch line of a Poly Chain GT2 Belt lies
within the tensile member.
The three principal dimensions of a sprocket are:

pitch

number of sprocket grooves

width

On the sprocket, pitch is the distance between groove centers and


is measured on the sprockets pitch circle. See illustration at right.
The pitch circle of the sprocket coincides with the pitch line of the
belt mating with it. The sprockets pitch diameter is always greater
than its outside diameter.
Any Poly Chain GT2 Belt must be run with Poly Chain GT2 sprockets of the same pitch.
Gates Poly Chain GT2 belts are made in 8mm and 14mm pitches.
Standard belt sizes are listed in the stock Poly Chain GT2 Belt Tables on page 21. Specifications for the 8mm and 14mm pitch belts
list the belt pitch lengths, number of teeth, stock widths and appropriate weights. Using the information from these tables, a code for
ordering a specific belt can be determined as shown in the following
examples:

Sprockets for Poly Chain GT2 belts are also made in 8mm and
14mm pitches. Standard sprocket sizes are listed in the Sprocket
Specification Tables on Pages 72 through 77. For each Poly Chain
GT2 Belt width, there is a table listing the sprocket code symbol, the
applicable bushing style and pertinent dimensional information.
The sprocket code symbol components are determined by using
the following examples:

Poly Chain GT2 Belt Drive Selection Procedure


Selection of a stock Poly Chain GT2 Belt Drive System involves
these seven steps:

Step 3 Select The Sprockets and Belt Length


Procedure

1. Calculate The Design Horsepower


2. Select The Belt Pitch
3. Select The Sprockets And Belt Length
4. Select The Proper Belt Width
5. Check And Specify Stock Drive Component
6. Installation And Take-up
7. Calculate Belt Tensioning Requirements

A. Determine the speed ratio. The speed ratio can be calculated


by dividing the rpm of the faster shaft by the rpm of the slower
shaft.
Example

Motor Speed = 1160 rpm


Gear Pump Speed = 580 rpm

Speed Ratio =
Sample Drive Selection Problem
A gear pump is to be driven by a 30 hp normal torque electric motor
with an output speed of 1160 rpm. The gear pump is to be driven at
580 rpm 5%. The center distance is to be approximately 30
inches, but can be altered 3 inches, if necessary. The motor shaft
has a 21 8 inch O.D. and the pump shaft has a 3 inch O.D. The pump
will operate 16 hours a day, five days a week. The pump sprocket is
limited to a maximum of 18 inches O.D. There are no unusual drive
conditions. Design using Poly Chain GT2.

Step 1 Calculate The Design Horsepower


Procedure
To calculate the design horsepower, first determine the relative severity, then select a service factor for the drive. Average hours per
day of service also should be considered. Locate the power source
and the driveN unit in the Service Factor Table on page 27. The design hp then is determined by multiplying the rated hp (usually the
nameplate rating) by the service factor determined above.

B. Select The Sprocket Combination And Belt Length: Referring to the Stock Drive Selection Tables on pages 28-61, find
the proper set of tables for the belt pitch (8mm or 14mm) found
in Step 2. Looking down the speed ratio column, find the value
which most closely matches the belt drive speed ratio required.
Reading across the selected speed ratio line, find the stock
DriveR and DriveN sprocket combination available. Reading
further across, locate the belt drive center distance which most
closely matches the target center distance specified. The belt
sizes are listed across the top of the table for each corresponding center distance.
Multiple sprocket combinations will often be available for a
given speed ratio. In such cases, selection of the proper drive
combination will depend on the center distance required, minimum or maximum required sprocket diameters and the recommended minimum sprocket diameter for electric motors (see
Table 4 on page 26).
After selecting possible sprocket combinations and center distances, record the belt length (top of column) and the length
factor (bottom of column).

Example

Example

Using the Service Factor Table, the driveR can be found


in the first group. Since the pump will run 16 hours per
day, follow the continuous service column down to the
driveN machines group for gear pumps. The recommended Service Factor is 1.7.

Belt pitch = 8mm and 14mm


Belt Drive Speed Ratio = 2.00
Center Distance = 30.00 3.00 in.

Design Horsepower = (Motor Load) x (Service Factor)


= (30) x (1.7)
Design Horsepower = 51 hp

Step 2 Select The Belt Pitch


Procedure
Using the design hp and the rpm of the smaller sprocket, select the
belt pitch from the Belt Pitch Selection Guide on page 25.
Example

Design Horsepower = 51 hp
Motor Speed = 1160 rpm
Locate 1160 rpm on the RPM of Faster Shaft scale on
the left side of the chart and move over to where the 51
Design Horsepower line intersects. The intersection falls
within the 8mm pitch range, but near the 14mm pitch
area. Both 8mm and 14mm pitch drives should be considered.

22

rpm of faster shaft 1160


= 2.00
=
rpm of slower shaft 580

First, refer to the 8mm Pitch Stock Drive Selection Tables


on pages 28-41. Reading down the Speed Ratio column
locate 2.00 on the bottom of page 34 and the top of page
36. The various sprocket combinations within the allowable center distance range is six. Of these, two are closest to the desired 30 inches. These are 25 to 50 groove,
and 40 to 80 groove sprocket combinations. The minimum sprocket diameter of 6.1 inches for a 30 hp motor at
1160 rpm (See Table 4 on page 26) eliminates the 25 to
50 and 40 to 80 groove sprocket combinations. Therefore,
an 8mm pitch drive will not be utilized for this drive system.
Now refer to the 14mm Pitch Stock Drive Selection Tables on pages 42-61. Reading down the Speed Ratio Column locate 2.00 on page 52. Several combinations are
shown which will meet the 30 3 inch center distance requirement. The maximum O.D. limit of 18 inches on the
driveN sprocket eliminates the 56 to 112 groove combination. The preference for a center distance close to 30
inches would favor the 40 to 80 and 28 to 56 groove combinations. However, the 4.912 inch pitch diameter of the
28 groove sprocket is less than the recommended minimum diameter of 6.1 inches for the electric motor. So the
40 groove DriveR sprocket, 80 groove DriveN
sprocket, and 14MX-2380 (170 Tooth) belt combination
is selected. Also note that the Belt Length Correction
Factor is 1.01 with a center distance of 30.11 inches.

C. Check the belt speed. Do not exceed 6500 fpm (feet per minute) with stock sprockets. Belt Speed can be calculated using
the following formula:

across the RPM row and down the sprocket size column
until the two intersect at a Rated Base Horsepower of
55.60 hp.

Speed (rpm)
3.82

Next, referencing the Additional Horsepower for Speed


Ratio Factor Table, find the listing for a 2.00 speed ratio.
An add-on factor of 2.65 hp is listed. Then, referencing
the Belt Length Correction Factor Table, find the listing for
a 14MGT-2380 belt. A correction factor of 1.01 is listed.

. fpm

Calculate the Corrected Horsepower Rating:

Calculating the belt speed for the drive system being


considered shows that the belt speed does not exceed
6500 fpm and can be considered further.

Rated Drive Horsepower =


[Rated Base Horsepower + Added HP for Speed Ratio]
(Belt Length Correction Factor) = [55.60 hp + 2.65 hp]
(1.01)
Rated Drive Horsepower = 58.83 hp

Step 4 Select The Proper Belt Width


Procedure
Horsepower Rating Tables are located on Pages 62-70 for
standard belt pitches and stock belt widths. The base horsepower rating is given in the upper table as a function of the speed
(rpm) of the faster shaft and diameter of the small sprocket. The
speed of the faster shaft is located in the left hand column. Across
the top are various stock sprocket sizes. The base horsepower rating of a given sprocket, at a specific speed, is the point at which the
rpm row and the sprocket size column intersect.
This base horsepower rating must be corrected for speed down
speed ratios, and for the belt length selected. The following formula
should be used to calculate the total drive horsepower rating:
Rated Drive Horsepower = [Rated Base Horsepower
+ Additional Horsepower for Speed Ratio]
(Belt Length Correction Factor)

Referring to the Additional Horsepower for Speed Ratio Factor


Table, select a value based upon the drive operating speed and the
speed ratio. This value should be added to the base horsepower
rating. Multiply the corrected rating by the applicable Belt Length
Correction Factor determined in Step 3B or from the Belt Length
Correction Factor Table. The drive horsepower rating must equal or
exceed design horsepower.
Where there are several choices, space limitations may control the
selection. In addition, the following guidelines should be considered:
1. Larger sprockets result in reduced belt width.
2. Larger sprockets yield longer drive service life.
3. Avoid drives where the belt width exceeds the smaller
sprocket diameter.
4. Avoid drives where center distance is greater than 8 times
the diameter of the smaller sprocket. Refer to Engineering
Section I-10 on page 101 for additional details.

The Drive Horsepower Rating of 58.83 hp exceeds the


Design Horsepower target of 51 hp. So, a belt width of
20mm is acceptable.

Step 5 Check and Specify Stock Drive Components


Procedure
A. Check the sprockets selected in Steps 3 and 4 against the
design requirements using the dimensions provided in the
Sprocket Specification Tables on pages 72 through 77. Use
flange diameters when checking against maximum diameter
requirements.
Example

From the table on page 74, we find the 14MX-80S-20


driveN Sprocket has an overall flange diameter of 14.620
inches, which is less than the 18 inch maximum diameter
specified.
B. Determine the bushing size required for each sprocket
and check bore sizes by using the Sprocket Specification Tables. From the Stock Bushing tables on pages 82-84, check the
bore range and keyway dimensions against the design requirements.
Example

Also from the sprocket data on page 74 we note that the


14MX-40S-20 sprocket requires a 2517 bushing and
the 14MX-80S-20 sprocket requires a 3525 bushing. In
the bushing table on page 82, a 2517 bushing has a
bore range of 1 2 to 21116 inches, which includes the 21 8
inch bore required for the driveR shaft. The 3525 bushing has a bore range from 13 16 to 315 16 inches, which includes the 3 inch bore required for the driveN shaft.
C. Specify stock drive components using proper
designations.
Example

Example

Stock drive components are as follows:

Referring to the 14mm pitch Horsepower Rating Table for


20mm Wide belts on page 66. Read down the left hand
column for RPM of Faster Shaft and locate 1160 rpm.
Read the sprocket sizes listed across the top of the table
and locate the 40 groove, 5.614 inch P.D. column. Read

Poly Chain GT2 Belt Drive Selection Procedure (continued)


Step 6 Installation and Takeup

B. Calculate minimum and maximum deflection forces using


Formulas 13 and 14 on page 107. The Y value is listed in
Table 10

Procedure
Because of its high resistance to elongation (stretch), there is no
need to re-tension and take up a Poly Chain GT2 belt drive. However, some adjustment must be provided when installing synchronous belt drives, as with nearly all power transmission systems, to
account for manufacturing and assembly tolerances and initial
tensioning requirements. Table 11 on page 108 lists the standard
installation and take-up requirements for a given belt length. Additional center distance adjustment is needed when installing the belt
over flanged sprockets (see Table 11 on page 108.)
Example

As can be seen in the Sprocket Specifications Table on


page 74, both of the sprockets are flanged. Therefore, an
additional allowance will be needed for installation over
flanged sprockets. The total installation and tensioning allowances, are shown below.

Example

a. Calculate the belt span length


D d
t = C 2

where:
t = Span Length, inches
C = Center Distance = 30.11 in.
D = diameter of larger sprocket = 14.036 in. P.D.
d = diameter of smaller sprocket = 7.018 in. P.D.

t=

14.036 7.018
30.112

Installation Allowance = 0.13 in. + 1.97 in. = 2.10 in.

t = 29.90 in.

Tensioning Allowance = 0.04 in.

b. Calculate Minimum and Maximum belt deflection


forces referring to Formulas 13 and 14 on page 107:

Subtracting this from the nominal center distance value


gives a minimum center distance necessary for belt installation of (30.11 inch 2.10 inch) = 28.10 inches. From
the problem statement, the center distance can be reduced down to 27.0 in. if necessary. So, there is sufficient center distance adjustment to easily install the
belt.

Step 7 Calculate Belt Tensioning Requirements


Procedure
A. Calculate base static tension using appropriate Formula 12
on page 107. The m value is listed in Table 10 on page 107.
Example

Belt Pitch = 14mm


Belt Size = 14MGT-2380, 170 teeth (93.70 in. P.L.)
Belt Width = 20mm
DriveR Sprocket = 40 grooves (7.018 in. P.D.)
DriveR Shaft Speed = 1160 rpm
DriveN Sprocket = 80 grooves (14.036 in. P.D.)
Actual Center Distance = 30.11 in.
Design Horsepower = 51 hp

TST =

17.4 DHP
+ mS 2, pounds
S

Where:
DHP = Design Horsepower = 51 hp
m = 0.92, constant for 14mm pitch, 20mm wide belt
from Table 10 on page 107
S = (Sprocket Diameter) x (Shaft Speed) / 3822.76
= (7.018 in.) x (1160 rpm) / 3822.76
S = 2.13

TST =

where:

= 420.78 pounds static tension as calculated before


= 29.90 inches span length as calculated before
= 93.70 inches belt length
= 134.57 (constant for Table 10 on page 107)

Min. Deflection Force =

( 2.13)

TST = 420.79 lb.

29.90
14
. ( 420.79) +
(134.57)
93.70

Min. Deflection Force = 39.50 lb.

TST = 416.62 + 4.17 lb.

Poly Chain GT2 Belt Drive Selection Procedure (continued)


Step 7 Calculate Belt Tensioning Requirements

D. Applying The Tension:

Procedure - continued
C. Determine the deflection distance using 1/64 per inch of
span length.
NOTE: Deflection forces must be applied evenly across
the entire belt width.
Example

At the center of span (t), apply a measured force perpendicular


to the belt span large enough to deflect the belt 0.47 inch from
its normal free position. Be sure that the force is applied evenly
across the entire belt width. Note that one sprocket should be
free to rotate during the belt tensioning process.
Compare the measured deflection force with the range of minimum to maximum deflection forces calculated before.

Deflection Distance =

t
,inches
64

1. If the measured deflection force is less than the minimum recommended deflection force, the belt should be
tightened.

Deflection Distance =

29.9
64

2. If the measured deflection force is greater than the


maximum recommended deflection force, the belt
should be loosened.

Deflection Distance = 0.47 in.

Example

When the Gear Pump belt drive is properly tensioned, a


belt span deflection of 0.47 in. should require a deflection
force within the range of 40 to 42 lb.

Table No. 4
Minimum Recommended Sprocket Pitch Diameters
for General Purpose Electric Motors
Synchronous Belt Drives
For a given motor horsepower and speed, the total belt pull is related to the motor sprocket size. As this size decreases, the total belt pull increases. Therefore, to limit the resultant load on motor shaft and bearings, NEMA lists minimum sprocket sizes for the various motors. The
sprocket on the motor (DriveR Sheave) should be at least as large as the diameter specified in Table No. 4.

Stock Sprockets are statically balanced per MPTA (Mechanical


Power Transmission Association) Standard Practice for Pulley
Balancing SPB-86 using the weight based on the following two criteria:
1. Balance limit (ounces) = Sprocket Weight (lb) x 0.016; or
2. 0.176 ounce (5 grams), whichever is greater.
Caution: Stock sprockets should not be used on drives where rim
surface speeds exceed 6,500 fpm. Sprocket construction and materials will determine the dynamic balancing requirements of the
sprocket(s) where rim surface speeds exceed 6,500 fpm.

Sprocket Tooth Profile and Surface Quality


The Poly Chain GT2 sprocket tooth profile was designed and developed exclusively by The Gates Rubber Company to operate
with the Gates Poly Chain GT2 Belt. See Engineering Section II-3,
Tooth Profile, on page 104 for a complete discussion of the performance characteristics of this new tooth profile. The tooth surface
should be free of any surface defects and should be 80 micro-inches finish or better.

Recommended Re-bore Specifications and Instructions


For Minimum Plain Bore (MPB) Sprockets
When using MPB Poly Chain GT2 sprockets in power transmission systems, important guidelines should be followed for proper
product finishing and application. Due to the high load carrying capacity and high operating tensions often found in Poly Chain GT2
belt drive systems, it is imperative to use and adhere to industry
standard practices.
When finishing MPB sprockets for high performance belt drive
systems, care should be taken to ensure proper functionality and
performance. General re-bore instructions and specifications are
as follows:
1. Materials used in Poly Chain GT2 sprockets are steel, gray
iron, and ductile iron. The materials used may vary with the
size of the sprocket. See the Sprocket Specification Tables,
pages 72 thru 77 for specific materials.
2. The maximum bore diameter specified by the manufacturer
for each sprocket size should NOT be exceeded, or a keyway
used which reduces the hub thickness to less than its minimum allowable value. See the Sprocket Specification Tables
for a listing of recommended bore ranges by sprocket size.
Bores exceeding the maximum recommended value for a
particular sprocket size can adversely affect the structural integrity, thereby reducing their load-carrying capability.
The minimum metal thickness between the keyway and hub
O.D. should be no less than the set screw diameter specified
for the corresponding sprocket size. See Figure 1. A listing of
minimum set screw diameters is included below.
8M-22S thru 28S 1/4
8M-30S thru 34S 5/16
8M-36S thru 38S 3/8
8M-40S thru 45S 7/16

14M-28S 7/16
14M-29S thru 32S 1/2
14M-33S thru 40S 5/8
14M-43S thru 48S 3/4

Class 1 Clearance Fits should be used when the transmitted


load is smooth in nature.
Interference Fits should be used for Poly Chain GT2
curvilinear drives transmitting cyclical, pulsating, or reversing
loads.

Flexible Couplings (Inch Series) AGMA 9002-A86 Table.

Figure 1 Minimum Hub Thickness and Set Screw Placement Guidelines

3. The fit between a finished sprocket bore and its mating shaft
in a power transmission system must not allow relative movement between the bore and the shaft when the drive is subjected to belt tension and torque loads. This is accomplished,
in the case of plain bore sprockets, with the use of set screws
and keys and by controlling the fit or clearance between the
sprocket bore and its mating shaft. Cyclical, pulsating, or reversing loads may wear the sprocket bore and/or keyway due
to the relative movement between the contacting surfaces of
the shaft and the bore. The resulting wear may increase the
clearance further, if an interference fit is not used.
In order to maximize the performance of high capacity belt
drives using plain bore style sprockets, the following for recommendations presented in Table 7 should be followed:

80

4. DO NOT chuck or center the sprocket on guide flanges. Soft


jaws should be used when chucking on the sprocket teeth.
Center (indicate) the sprocket using the sprocket tooth O.D.
If chucked on the Rim I.D. or Hub O.D., the sprocket should
be centered with respect to the sprocket tooth O.D. Guide
flanges are permanently mounted and should not be removed. If original flanges must be removed, they should be
replaced with NEW flanges. New guide flanges should be attached securely with care using mechanical fasteners such
as screws. Note: Improper guide flange reassembly may
cause serious personal injury and/or mechanical damage.
5. Set screw holes in the sprocket hub must be placed properly
for maximum holding strength. For both standard and shallow
keyseats, two (2) set screws should be used as illustrated in
Figure 2. The total holding strength of the set screws is dependent upon their placement and design. Generally, one
screw should be placed directly over the keyway, and the
other screw at ninety degrees (90) from the keyway, or at
sixty-five degrees (65) from the keywaya more recent
practice that improves holding power. Sometimes four set
screws (or two pair) are used for increased holding strength.

6. After reboring, the sprocket may require rebalancing. Vibration, noise, reduced bearing life, and undue stresses on the
mechanical components in the system could result if improper rebalancing practices are used. See Sprocket Specifications, page 78, for recommended sprocket balancing
specifications.
7. Standard square or rectangular keys should be used. See
pages 83-84 for standard key dimensions.
Specifications and tolerances for sprocket eccentricity, parallelism, and balancing, etc. are all presented on Page 78.

Specifying English and Metric Keyways
Dimensioning and specifying metric keys and keyways varies significantly from the English system. In the English system, it is the
standard practice to dimension the keyway, while in the metric
system it is common practice to specify the key size. In the English
system, the keyway in the hub is dimensioned by the width and
depth at the side, but in the metric system the keyway is
dimensioned by the width and the depth measured from the radius
of the shaft to the center of the keyway. One of the following methods should be used to specify keyways:
English:
Metric:
W x T Key
W x T1 Keyway
W x T Key
W x h Keyway
Unless otherwise noted, the keyway in the shaft is assumed to be
standard. Also, T1 and T2 are not necessarily equal.

T1
T

T2

The metric system does not refer to keyseat or keyway dimensions as does the English system. Instead, dimensions are given
for the key itself which is rectangular in shape, not square, as in
the English system. The correct terminology when ordering metric
bored bushings with millimeter keyways will be either of the following:
1. Specify standard Keyway
2. Customer to specify keysize (keyseat to be
standard size in shaft)

Taper-Lock Type Sprocket Installation and Removal

To Install TAPER-LOCK Type Bushings


1. Clean the shaft, bore of bushing, outside of bushing and the
sprocket hub bore of all oil, paint and dirt. File away any burrs.
Note: The use of lubricants can cause sprocket breakage.
USE NO LUBRICANTS IN THIS INSTALLATION.
2. Insert the bushing into the sprocket hub. Match the hole pattern, not threaded holes (each complete hole will be threaded
on one side only).
3, LIGHTLY oil the set screws and thread them into those
half-threaded holes indicated by on the diagram above.
Note: Do not lubricate the bushing taper, hub taper, bushing
bore, or the shaft. Doing so could result in sprocket breakage.
4. With the key in the shaft keyway, position the assembly onto
the shaft allowing for small axial movement of the sprocket
which will occur during the tightening process.
Note: When mounting sprockets on a vertical shaft, precautions must be taken to positively prevent the sprocket and/or
bushing from falling during installation.

5. Alternately torque the set screws until the sprocket and bushing tapers are completely seated together (at approximately
half of the recommended torque; see table below).
Note: Do not use worn hex key wrenches. Doing so may result in a loose assembly or may damage screws.
6. Check the alignment and sprocket axial runout (wobble), and
correct as necessary.
7. Continue alternate tightening of the cap screws to the recommended torque values specified in the table below.
8. To increase the bushing gripping force, hammer the face of
the bushing using a drift or sleeve (Do Not Hit The Bushing Directly With The Hammer).
9. Re-torque the bushing screws after hammering.
10. Recheck all screw torque values after the initial drive run-in,
and periodically thereafter. Repeat steps 5 through 9 if loose.

To Remove
1. Loosen and remove all mounting screws.
2. Insert screws into all jack screw holes indicated by
(see figure above).

3. Loosen the bushing by alternately tightening the screws in


small but equal increments until the tapered sprocket and
bushing surfaces disengage.

Gates Short-Length Poly Chain GT Belt Drive Systems


For especially small and compact drive systems that demand utmost robustness, Poly Chain GT belts are now
available in a series of short lengths. These unique belts
are available in 8mm pitch only, and in standard 12mm,
21mm, and 36mm widths. Now the unsurpassed performance and reliability of Poly Chain GT can be utilized in
spaces smaller than ever before.

ety of both regular and irregular shaped commodities, from


light and fragile to heavy and rugged loading.
In the Roll-to-Roll conveying arrangement, two sprockets
are attached to each roller, and individual loops of roller
chain or belts connect pairs of rollers in a staggered pattern
along the length of the conveyor. This design is ideal for
handling heavy loads and for applications requiring frequent stopping or reversing service. Idler rollers without
sprockets are sometimes inserted between the driven rollers. A typical Roll-to-Roll conveyer system is illustrated in
the photo at left..
Positive driven live roller conveyors are better suited than
V-belt or round belt driven units on applications where heat,
dirt, oil, water and other contaminants are present.

Comparison To Roller Chain


Short-Length Poly Chain GT belts compete well on a width
to width basis with roller chain on both low and high speed
applications. The following chart compares 8mm Poly
Chain GT with #40 and #50 roller chain.

Short-Length Poly Chain GT belts utilize the same construction as conventional Poly Chain GT belts, that have
proven themselves over and over in industry since their introduction in 1986. Because of their unique manufacturing
process, these short belts have a smooth back instead of
the ribbed back used with conventional Poly Chain GT
belts. They are also fully compatible with standard Poly
Chain GT and Poly Chain GT2 sprockets.

Typical Applications
Short-Length Poly Chain GT belts should be considered in
any application requiring heavy torque loads or rugged durability in a very compact area. Drives utilizing sprockets
as small as 2.5 P.D. with a center distance of 3 are rated
for loads in excess of 12 hp at 1800 rpm.
Live roller conveyers are a natural application for
Short-Length Poly Chain GT belt drive systems. Live roller
conveyers are used for controlled movement of a great vari-

Gates Short-Length Poly Chain GT belts are designed to


run in Gates Poly Chain GT2 sprockets. See the Sprocket
Specification Tables on pages 72-73 for a listing of available sizes, pertinent dimensions, applicable bushing sizes,
bore ranges, etc. See page 20 for an explanation for the
sprocket code symbol used for Poly Chain GT2 sprockets.
When designing Short-Length Poly Chain GT drives refer
to either the Low Speed Drive Design Procedure (generally
less than 500 rpm) on pages 14-19 , or the High Speed
Drive Design Procedure on pages 22-25, but substitute
Table 9 on pages 92-93 for belt length and center distance
selections, and the tables on pages 94-96 for horsepower
ratings.

Each of these circumstances and special considerations are
reviewed below.

1. Gear Motors/ Speed Reducer Drives


When designing a belt drive system to transfer power from
the output shaft of a speed reducer to the final driven shaft,
the designer must make certain that the belt drive does not
exert shaft loads greater than the speed reducing device is
rated to carry. Failure to do so can result in premature
shaft/ bearing failures whether the belt drive has been
designed with the appropriate power capacity or not.
This concept is similar to the National Electric Motor
Association (NEMA) establishing minimum acceptable
sprocket diameters for each of their standardized motor
frames. Abiding by these minimum recommended diameters, when designing a belt drive system, prevents the
motor bearings from failing prematurely due to excessive
shaft loads exerted by the belt drive.
Overhung load is generally defined as a force exerted by a
belt or chain drive, that is perpendicular to a speed reducer
shaft, and applied beyond its outermost bearing. Calculated
overhung load values are intended to serve as an indication
of how heavily loaded the shaft and outermost bearing of a
speed reducer actually is.

Most speed reducer manufacturers publish allowable overhung load values for every model in their product line. This
value represents the maximum load that the shaft and bearings can support without negatively impacting the durability
of the speed reducer. When the actual overhung load
exceeds the published allowable value, premature shaft or
bearing failure may occur. In extreme cases, catastrophic
failures can occur.
A general formula used to calculate overhung load (OHL) is
as follows:
OHL = 126,000 x HP x kLCF x KSF x KLLF
PD X RPM
Where: HP = Actual horsepower being transmitted at the
gear motor/reducer output shaft with no service factor applied
KLCF = Overhung load connection factor (1.3 for all
synchronous belt drives)
KSF = Service factor for the speed reducer (available from the manufacturer)
KLLF = Load location factor for the speed reducer
(available from the manufacturer)
PD = Pitch diameter of the speed reducer output
shaft sprocket
RPM = RPM of the speed reducer output shaft
Speed reducer manufacturers each publish their own specific formula and constants to calculate overhung load. They
also publish specific overhung load ratings for each speed
reducer product that they produce. It is very important to
use the correct overhung load calculation procedure in conjunction with the manufacturers accompanying overhung
load rating.

The Driving Force in Power Transmission

97

If the calculated overhung load for a particular belt drive


system does exceed the speed reducer manufacturers
maximum recommended value, consider altering the belt
drive design. In order to reduce the calculated overhung
load, consider:

Shaft
Length
Min.

Shaft
Dia.

Increasing sprocket diameters


Reducing belt width
Mounting the sprocket closer to the speed reducer
outboard bearing
Increasing the sprocket diameter not only reduces calculated overhung load, it also potentially reduces the required
belt width. Reducing the belt width and mounting the
sprocket as close as possible to the outermost bearing of
the speed reducer both move the center of the belt load
closer to the speed reducer. This also reduces the calculated overhung load. Alterations to the belt drive design
should be made until the calculated overhung load is within
the speed reducer manufacturers recommendations.

2. Electric Motor Frame Dimensions


Motor dimensions can be important considerations depending on the application and its requirements. If motor shaft
length, motor shaft diameter, or clearance issues are a concern, refer to the motor dimension table on this page. The
table lists common general purpose electric motors by
frame size.

3. Minimum Sprocket Diameter


Recommendations for Electric Motors
Minimum Recommended Sprocket / Sheave Diameters
NEMA (The National Electric Manufacturers Association)
publishes recommendations for the minimum diameter of
sprockets and sheaves to be used on General Purpose
Electric Motors. The purpose of these recommendations is
to prevent the use of excessively small sprockets or
sheaves. This can result in motor shaft or bearing damage
since belt pull increases as the diameter is reduced.
Table data has been compiled from NEMA Standard MG-114-42; 11/78, MG-1-14-43; 1/68, and a composite of electric
motor manufacturers data. Values are generally conservative, and specific motors may permit the use of a smaller
sprocket or sheave. Consult the motor manufacturer.

4. High-Driven Inertia
Many drives, such as piston compressors, punch presses
and crushers, depend on the driveN pulley acting as a flywheel. This flywheel effect, or WR2 is used to help moderate
or smooth out fluctuations in driven load and speed. Failure
to compensate for this during a redesign can result in premature damage to the prime mover or early belt failures.
This can be a consideration when replacing older belt drives
with new, higher capacity belts.
When replacing large pulleys or sheaves with sprockets, be
careful not to remove a designed-in flywheel effect. Ask
questions of the user to make sure there is not a concern
for a high WR2. If there is a concern, you may have to use a
wider sprocket, a larger diameter, or a special made-toorder sprocket designed with added weight and WR2.
Drives which have a high driveN inertia and are subjected
to high acceleration or emergency stop conditions require
additional design expertise. Contact Gates Power
Transmission Product Application for further engineering
assistance.

5. Air Moving Drives


HVAC Equipment Inspection
Many air handling drives have structures that are not particularly rigid, which can create belt tension and drive alignment problems resulting in unusual and premature belt
wear. Synchronous belts are sensitive to fluctuations in
center distance that can be caused by inadequate bracketry.
Under start up conditions, an AC motor can be required to
provide 150% to 200% of its rated capacity. Synchronous
belts cannot slip, and must transmit the higher start up
torque. Under these conditions, the drive center distance
may collapse if the structure is not sufficiently rigid.
With the drive shut off and safely locked out, a simple
method to use when inspecting potential drive conversions
is to grab the two belt spans and push them together while
observing the motor. If any significant relative change in
center distance or motor position is noticed, the drives
structural strength is most likely insufficient for a simple conversion. The structure would need to be reinforced to
obtain optimum performance from a synchronous belt drive.
The best conversion candidates have motors that are
mounted solidly on support bracketry that is part of the fan's
structural system. When possible, select synchronous
drives with diameters similar to existing V-belt sheave diameters. This will maintain similar belt pulls and loads on the
shafts and structure.

Air Handling Unit Start-Up Characteristics


Full Load Start Up
Start up loads can be a concern when evaluating potential
drives for conversion to synchronous belts. Synchronous
belts will transmit all of the start up torque, where V-belts
may slip if the load is excessive. Due to the inertia of the
fan, start up loads can potentially be 150% to 200% of the
normal operating load. It is important that the start up load
be considered by selecting appropriate service factors
when designing a belt drive system.

The Driving Force in Power Transmission

99

Controlled Start Up
An air handling drive with soft start or variable frequency
controller (AC Inverter) is ideal for conversion to synchronous belts. The fan will be ramped up to speed slowly, with
a corresponding increase in load as the speed increases.
Structural flexing is typically not a concern when designing
synchronous belt drives on systems using soft starts or variable frequency controllers.
Fan Speed
The volume of air being transmitted and the required horsepower are both sensitive to changes in the driveN fan
speed. If designing a synchronous belt drive for energy
savings, it is important that the synchronous belt drive be
designed to operate at the proper driveN fan speed. All
conversions from existing V-belt drives should have the synchronous belt drive speed ratio based on a measured
driveN shaft RPM, and not calculated from the theoretical Vbelt speed ratio. This measurement can be made by either
using a mechanical contact tachometer or a strobe
tachometer.
The horsepower requirement for fans varies with the cube
of the fan speed. A small change in the fan speed makes a
much larger difference in the actual horsepower and energy
required.

6. Linear Motion Drives


In linear motion drives, such as a rack and pinion application, the belt is not transmitting a load in the conventional
rotational manner. The two cut ends of the belt are connected to clamping fixtures and the belt travels back and
forth a specified distance while rotating over a sprocket.
Because of these characteristics, the drive design process
will typically not follow standard catalog design procedures.
The designer will most likely have available a maximum belt
load or pull which will need to be related to the belt's allowable working tension. Reasonably sized sprocket diameters
are still required to prevent excessive stress fatigue in the
belt. In these applications, the designer may either use
endless belts and cut them, or use standard long length
belting when available. Gates Power Transmission Product
Application may also be consulted for additional design
assistance.

7. High Performance Applications


For special high performance applications, such as motorcycles or race car and boat supercharger drives, the design
loads will typically exceed published data. Because of the
extremely high loads and speeds (as much as 500 HP and
belt speeds exceeding 10,000 fpm), it is necessary for the
designer to contact Gates Power Transmission Product
Application for additional assistance.

100

Although special considerations may be involved, it is


important to remember that reasonable drive recommendations can be provided to the designer in most cases.

8. Belt Drive Registration


The three primary factors contributing to belt drive registration (or positioning) errors are belt elongation, backlash, and
tooth deflection. When evaluating the potential registration
capabilities of a synchronous belt drive, the system must
first be determined to be either static or dynamic in terms of
its registration function and requirements.
Static Registration: A static registration system moves
from its initial static position to a secondary static position.
During the process the designer is concerned only with how
accurately and consistently the drive arrives at its secondary position. Potential registration errors that occur during
transport are not considered. Therefore, the primary factor
contributing to registration error in a static registration system is backlash. The effects of belt elongation and tooth
deflection do not have any influence on the registration
accuracy of this type of system.
Dynamic Registration: A dynamic registration system is
required to perform a registering function while in motion
with torque loads varying as the system operates. In this
case, the designer is concerned with the rotational position
of the drive sprockets with respect to each other at every
point in time. Therefore, belt elongation, backlash, and tooth
deflection will all contribute to registrational inaccuracies.
Further discussion about each of the factors contributing to
registration error is as follows:
Belt Elongation: Belt elongation, or stretch, occurs naturally when a belt is placed under tension. The total tension
exerted within a belt results from installation as well as
working loads. The amount of belt elongation is a function of
the belt tensile modulus, which is influenced by the type of
tensile cord and the belt construction. The standard tensile
cord used in rubber synchronous belts is fiberglass.
Fiberglass has a high tensile modulus, is dimensionally stable, and has excellent flex-fatigue characteristics. The standard tensile cord used in PolyChain GT2 belts is an aramid
type. The tensile modulus of this cord is considerably higher
than fiberglass cords, and also provides excellent flex
fatigue characteristics. When needed, belt tensile modulus
data is available from Gates Power Transmission Product
Application.
Backlash: Backlash in a synchronous belt drive results
from clearance between the belt teeth and the sprocket
grooves. This clearance is needed to allow the belt teeth to
enter and exit the grooves smoothly with a minimum of
interference. The amount of clearance necessary depends
upon the belt tooth profile. PowerGrip Timing Belt Drives
are known for having relatively little backlash. PowerGrip
HTD Drives have improved torque carrying capability and
resist ratcheting, but have a significant amount of backlash.
Polychain GT2 Drives have considerably improved torque
carrying capability, and backlash characteristics in between
that of PowerGrip HTD and PowerGrip Timing Drives. In
special cases, alterations can be made to drive systems to
further decrease backlash. These alterations often result in
increased belt wear, increased drive noise and shorter drive

life. Contact Gates Power Transmission Product Application


for additional information.
Tooth Deflection: Tooth deformation in a synchronous belt
drive occurs as a torque load is applied to the system, and
individual belt teeth are loaded. The amount of belt tooth
deformation depends upon the amount of torque loading,
sprocket size, installation tension and belt type. Of the three
primary contributors to registration error, tooth deflection is
the most difficult to quantify. Experimentation with a prototype drive system is the best means of obtaining realistic
estimations of belt tooth deflection.
Additional guidelines that may be useful in designing registration critical drive systems are as follows:

Design with large sprockets with more teeth in mesh.


Keep belts tight, and control tension closely.
Design frame/shafting to be rigid under load.
Use high quality machined sprockets to minimize
radial run out and lateral wobble.

9. Belt Drive Noise


Field experience on actual applications verifies that some
positive belt drives can produce some noise. The noise levels produced are typically greater than V-belts, and are
associated with tooth meshing characteristics. For the most
part, this noise is low level and will not exceed the level of
noise produced by the equipment it is used on or the surrounding environment of the equipment. Laboratory studies
(confirmed by field studies), using highly instrumented
equipment, show a high probability for significant noise generation at speeds greater than 3,500 feet per minute and
belt widths in excess of 85mm.

1. On all two-sprocket drives, the minimum flanging


requirements are two flanges on one sprocket or one
flange on each sprocket on opposite sides.
2. On drives where the center distance is more than
eight times the diameter of the small sprocket, belt
tracking may be more difficult to control. Check to be
sure that the belt tracks completely on both sprockets. Special attention should be given to proper drive
alignment, and both sprockets may require flanging
on both sides. (See Engineering Section II-10, Drive
Alignment on Page 108.)
3. On vertical shaft drives, one sprocket should be
flanged on both sides, and all remaining sprockets in
the system may require flanging on the bottom side
only if the belt does not track correctly on the sprockets.
4. On drives with more than two sprockets, the
recommended flanging requirements are two
flanges on every other sprocket, or one flange on
every sprocketon alternating sides.
On made-to-order sprockets, flanges must be securely fastened, such as using mechanical fasteners, welding, shrinkfit or other equivalent methods.

11. Fixed (Nonadjustable) Center Distance


Designers sometimes attempt to design synchronous belt
drive systems without any means of belt adjustment or take
up. This type of system is called a Fixed Center Drive.
While this approach is often viewed as being economical,
and is simple for assemblers, it often results in troublesome
reliability and performance problems in the long run.

Many times a belt drive system, when operating under load,


is not the primary cause for noise. Undersized, poorly lubricated, worn or misaligned bearings can cause significant
noise levels. Rotating parts of a total system can create air
disturbances, thus generating noise. A weak structural
design could flex under the load and cause misalignment
and affect components in the drive system, thereby creating
noise. Consideration should also be given to assuring that
the total system has not been designed to act as an echo
chamber, thus amplifying an otherwise insignificant noise.

The primary pitfall in a fixed center design approach is failure to consider the affects of system tolerance accumulation. Belts and sprockets are manufactured with industry
accepted production tolerances. There are limits to the
accuracy that the center distance can be maintained on a
production basis as well. The potential effects of this tolerance accumulation is as follows:

It becomes obvious there are many sources for noise in


most applications. The study and understanding of noise
analysis is a complex and controversial issue. It should be
apparent to the designer that noise problems require very
careful and thorough examinations. If belt drive noise is a
problem, contact Gates Power Transmission Product
Application for further assistance.

High Tension:
Short Belt with Large Sprockets on a Long Center Distance

10. Use of Flanged Sprockets


Guide flanges are needed in order to keep the belt on the
sprocket. Due to tracking characteristics, even on the best
aligned drives, belts will ride off the edge of the sprockets.
Flanges will prevent this belt ride-off.
On all drives using stock or made-to-order sprockets, the
following conditions should be considered when selecting
flanged sprockets:

Low Tension:
Long Belt with Small Sprockets on a Short Center Distance

Belt tension in these two cases can vary by a factor of 3 or


more with a fiberglass tensile cord, and even more with an
aramid tensile cord. This potential variation is great enough
to overload bearings and shafting, as well as the belts
themselves. The probability of these extremes occurring is a
matter of statistics, but however remote the chances seem,
they will occur in a production setting. In power transmission
drives, the appearance of either extreme is very likely to
impact drive system performance in a negative manner.
The most detrimental aspect of fixed center drives is generally the potentially high tension condition. This condition can
be avoided by adjusting the design center distance. A common approach in these designs is to reduce the center distance from the exact calculated value by some small fraction. This results in a drive system that is inherently loose,

The Driving Force in Power Transmission

101

but one that has much less probability of yielding excessively high shaft loads. NOTE: This approach should not be
used for power transmission drives since the potentially
loose operating conditions could result in accelerated wear
and belt ratcheting, even under nominal loading.
There are times when fixed center drive designs cant be
avoided. In these cases, the following recommendations will
maximize the probability of success.
1. Do not use a fixed center design for power transmission drives. Consider using a fixed center design only
for lightly loaded or motion transfer applications.
2. Do not use a fixed center design for drives requiring
high motion quality or registration precision.
3. When considering a fixed center design, the center
distance must be held as accurately as possible, typically within 0.0020.003 (0.05mm0.08mm). This
accuracy often requires the use of stamped steel
framework. Molding processes do not generally have
the capability of maintaining the necessary accuracy.
4. Sprockets for fixed center systems should be produced with a machining process for accuracy.
Molding and sintering processes are generally not
capable of holding the finished O.D. sufficiently accurate for these systems.
5. The performance capabilities of the drive system
should be verified by testing belts produced over their
full length tolerance range on drive systems representing the full potential center-distance variation.

Application for design center distance recommendations, and to review the application.

12. Use of Idlers


Use of idlers should be restricted to those cases in which they
are functionally necessary. Idlers are often used as a means
of applying tension when the center distance is not adjustable.

Idler sizes smaller than this may result in excessive tensile


fatigue resulting in premature belt failures
Idler arc of contact should be held to a minimum. All idlers
should be rigidly mounted in place to minimize movement or
deflection during drive startup and operation.
In most cases, use of spring-loaded idlers is not recommended on positive belt applications. This stems from the
fact that a synchronous belt can generate sufficient tension
to overcome any reasonable force imposed by a springloaded idler (See Engineering Section II-14, Self Generated
Tension on Page 110). The belt may ratchet in this situation
because the idler has not maintained sufficient belt tension
on the slack side span. Any spring force sufficient to resist
being overcome by belt span tensions may be excessive
and could significantly reduce belt life. Exceptions include
lightly loaded applications.

13. Minimum Belt Wrap


and Tooth Engagement
Horsepower ratings listed in this catalog are based on a
minimum of six teeth in mesh between the belt and the
sprocket. The ratings must be corrected for excessive tooth
loading if there are less than six teeth in mesh. For nonstock drives not listed in the Drive Selection Tables, the
teeth in mesh may be calculated by using this formula:

Formula 9
8

D d
Ng
Teeth in Mesh = 0.5
Ng

6C
Where: D = pitch diameter, large sprocket, inches
d = pitch diameter, small sprocket, inches
C = center distance between shafts, inches
N
Ng
g = number of grooves in small sprocket

In cases where fewer than six teeth are in full contact, 20%
of the horsepower rating must be subtracted for each tooth
less than six not in full contact. After computing the teeth in
mesh, the belt rating should be multiplied by the appropriate
Ktm factor shown in the following table.

Teeth In Mesh Correction Factor


Idlers should be located on the slack side span of the belt
drive. For inside idlers, grooved sprockets are recommended up to 40 grooves. On larger diameters, flat uncrowned
idlers may be used. In some cases, such as high capacity
drives utilizing large sprockets, idlers as large as the smallest loaded sprocket in the system may be more appropriate.
Based upon both laboratory testing and field experience,
backside idler applications using PolyChain GT2 belts perform best with operating speeds up to 500 rpm. Higher
operating speeds may be considered, particularly with 8mm
pitch drive systems.
Backside idlers should be flat and uncrowned, and sized
as follows:
8mm Pitch: 3 O.D. Minimum
14mm Pitch: 6-1/2 O.D. Minimum

In addition to the number of teeth in mesh, some drives with


more than two shafts may have a greater potential for the
belts to ratchet where loaded sprockets have 6 teeth in
mesh, but a small arc of contact. In order to minimize this
condition, each loaded sprocket in the drive system should
have an arc of contact or belt wrap angle of at least 60
degrees. Non-loaded idler sprockets do not have tooth
meshing or wrap angle requirements.

14. Adverse Operating Environments

Section II

Debris
Be very careful when using synchronous drives in high
debris environments. Debris can be more damaging to the
positive belt drive than a V-belt drive, which has a tendency
to remove debris from the sheave grooves through drive
operation. Entrapment of debris in synchronous drives is a
major concern. Debris can be packed into sprocket grooves
causing improper belt tooth engagement, reducing belt life
and accelerating belt and sprocket wear. Care must be
taken to provide adequate shielding to drives in environments where debris is likely. Completely enclosing a synchronous belt drive may be acceptable. Since synchronous
belts generate minimal heat during drive operation, air circulation is not critical except where extremely high temperatures already are present. Depending on the type and abrasive characteristics of the debris, excessive wear can be
generated on both belt and sprockets.

Engineering Design Considerations


All synchronous belt drives require proper installation procedures for optimum performance. In addition, topics such as
tooth profile advantages, sprocket rim speed limitations, efficiency, and tolerances are common to all Gates synchronous belt drives.
1. Belt Storage and Handling
2. Center Distance and Belt Length
3. Tooth Profiles
4. Static Conductivity
5. Sprocket Diameter - Speed
6. Efficiency

Temperature
Belt performance is generally unaffected in ambient temperature environments between -65 and 185F (-54 and
85C). Temperature extremes beyond these limits should be
reviewed by Gates Power Transmission Product Application.

7. Belt Tolerances

Chemical Resistance
Based on lab and field testing, PolyChain GT2 belts provide
excellent resistance to most chemicals, including some
acids, alkalis and petroleum distillates. Actual performance
characteristics will be determined by the degree of concentration of the chemical, the time of exposure and the type of
exposure (drip, splash, immersion, etc.). In addition to possible belt degradation, these chemicals can act as a lubricant in the drive system. As with any positive belt drive,
PolyChain GT2 drives which run where excessive lubrication is present have an increased tendency to ratchet (See
Engineering Section II-14, Self Generated Tension on Page
110). Special attention should be given to assure that recommended tension is maintained (See Engineering Section
II-8, Belt Installation Tension on Page 106).

10. Drive Alignment

High Humidity
Many industrial applications face the problems of rusting
parts. This is equally true of sprockets when used in very
wet or humid environments, such as seen with air moving
drives on cooling towers or wood kilns. The constant effects
of the wet air surrounding the belt drive can cause excessive rust, which in the most severe cases may lead to premature wear.
In these instances the designer may elect to use special
stainless steel sprockets or a more economical choice such
as nickel coating. A 0.001" thick coating of electroless nickel
can, in many instances, dramatically slow down the effects
of rusting.

1. Belt Storage and Handling


Synchronous belts should be protected from moisture, temperature extremes, direct sunlight and high ozone environments. Each belt should be stored in its original package,
avoiding any sharp bends or crimping which will cause damage. When properly stored, Gates synchronous belts should
easily meet the criteria covered in RMA Bulletin IP-3-4
(eight years storage with no reduced performance).

2. Center Distance and Belt Length


The approximate relationship between a center distance and
belt pitch length is given by the following formula:

Where: LLpp== belt pitch length, inches
D = diameter of large sprocket, inches

The exact center distance can be calculated using an iterative process between the center distance (Formula 11) and
belt length (Formula 10) equations. The exact center distance has been found when the two equations converge.
The pitch length increment of a synchronous belt is equal to
a multiple of the belt pitch.

3. Tooth Profiles
Conventional trapezoidal belts (MXL, XL, etc.) were the earliest developments of positive drive belts. In more recent
years, new curvilinear profiles have entered the market.
The most predominant of these profiles is the HTD system
(5mm, 8mm, etc.). While these curvilinear profiles provide
many advantages, they also can provide significant disadvantages.
R

With the development of the new Gates GT tooth profile,


the combined advantages of the various curvilinear profiles
have now been optimized. Characteristics such as ratcheting resistance, improved load/life and noise reduction were
prime factors in the design of the Gates GT profile.
Additionally, it allowed optimization in incorporating premium
materials into its superior construction.

Figure 4

4. Static Conductivity
All belts, whether made from rubber or urethane, naturally
build up an electric charge while in operation. While the likelihood that an electrical discharge from a belt could actually
cause a detonation continues to be a point of speculation,
lower humidity levels around 15% are known to result in significantly stronger electrical charges than higher humidity
levels around 60% or more. Thus, greater precautions
should be taken for belt drive systems operating in low
humidity, or dry, environments.
Power transmission belts produced in a conductive construction have traditionally been considered to be relatively
safe for explosive environments. Conductive belts continuously dissipate their electrical charge into the ferrous
sprockets or sheaves on which they operate. The test procedure described in RMA Bulletin IP-3-3/1995 provides a
measurable standard of belt conductivity to ensure that
electrical charges from power transmission belts are safely
dissipated into the belt drive hardware. It is important to
note that this test procedure applies only to new belts.
PolyChain GT2 belts do not meet the static conductivity
requirements specified in RMA Bulletin IP-3-3/1995. This is
also true for most rubber synchronous drive belts unless
specially ordered from the manufacturer to meet this
requirement. Though rubber power transmission belts can
be produced in a conductive construction, it is important to
understand that belt conductivity properties are known to
decay over time with belt usage. In addition, power transmission belts that do not meet the RMA IP-3-3 standard are
widely available. A conductive power transmission belt used
in an explosive environment could inadvertently be replaced
with an unsafe belt, creating a potential safety hazard.
Testing confirms that under normal dynamic operating conditions, PolyChain GT2 belts generate a minimal static
charge. The user must ensure that belt drives operating in
potentially hazardous or explosive environments are
designed and installed in accordance with existing building
codes, OSHA requirements, and/or recognized
safety-related organizations.

The GT tooth profile is based on the tractix mathematical


function. Engineering handbooks describe this function as a
frictionless system. This early development by Schiele is
described as an involute form of a catenary. With this system,
the belt and sprocket teeth move substantially tangentially
during entry and exit, thus improving significantly the belts
performance characteristics. This is illustrated in Figure 4.

The Gates Rubber Company

Even properly lubricated chains running at higher speeds


tend to throw off the oil due to centrifugal forces, making it
difficult to maintain proper lubrication at the load bearing
surfaces. Consequently, chain drives are typically only 9298% efficient.

5. Sprocket DiameterSpeed

Speed losses result from belt slip and creep. Unlike V-belts,
slip is not a factor with synchronous belts. Well maintained
V-belt drives are typically in the range of 95-98% efficient.
However, on a poorly designed or maintained drive, the efficiency may drop as much as 5% or more. If proper maintenance cannot be scheduled for a V-belt drive or it is located
in an inaccessible area, a positive belt drive system should
be considered.

Drives shaded in the Belt Width Selection Tables on pages


62 through 65, and pages 94 through 96 use sprocket diameters that may reduce belt life. The amount of reduction will
depend on speedthe higher the speed, the greater the
reduction. The drives are included for use where speed ratio
or space requirements must be met. Blanks in the lower
right-hand portions of the Belt Width Selection Tables occur
because sprocket rim speed exceeds 6,500 feet per minute.
Centrifugal forces developed beyond this speed may prohibit the use of stock gray cast iron sprockets. For rim speeds
above 6,500 feet per minute, contact Gates Power
Transmission Product Application for other alternatives.

6. Efficiency
When properly designed and applied, PolyChain GT2 belt
drive efficiency will be as high as 98%. This high efficiency
is primarily due to the positive, no slip characteristic of synchronous belts. Since the belt has a thin profile, it flexes
easily, thus resulting in low hysteresis losses as evidenced
by low heat buildup in the belt.

The belt drive is only part of the total system. Motors should
be properly sized for the application. They must have sufficient capacity to meet the power needs, yet over-designed
motors will lead to electrical inefficiencies. DriveN machines
also may have inherent inefficiencies which may contribute
to overall system efficiency.

Gates synchronous belts are uniquely constructed because


they use high performance materials. Optimization of these
high-technology features provide maximum performance
and efficiency.
Synchronous belt drive efficiency can be simply defined as
shown in the following equation:

Efficiency, percent =

DN RPM DN Torque
100
DR RPM DR Torque

When examining the loss of energy, it is necessary to consider belt losses in terms of shaft torque and shaft speed.
Torque losses result from bending stress and friction.
Chain drives running unlubricated may generate significant
heat build up due to increased friction in the roller joints.

Standard Belt Tensioning Procedure


When installing a Gates PolyChain GT2 belt:
A. Be sure it is tensioned adequately to prevent tooth
jumping (ratcheting) under the most severe load conditions which the drive will encounter during operation.
B. Avoid extremely high tension which can reduce belt
life and possibly damage bearings, shafts and other
drive components.
When you wish to use a numerical method for calculating
recommended belt installation tension values, the following
procedure should be used:
Measure the force (lb) required to deflect one belt span a
given amount, as shown in the sketch below.

Because of the high performance capabilities of PolyChain


GT2 belts, it is possible to design drives that have significantly greater load capacity than are necessary to carry the
actual design load. Consequently, Formula 12 can provide
Tst values less than are necessary for the belt to operate
properly, resulting in poor belt performance and reduced
service life.
If a more appropriately sized drive cannot be designed, minimum recommended Tst values are provided in Table 10 to
assure that the PolyChain GT2 belts are tensioned properly
when lightly loaded.
Always use the greater Tst value; i.e., from Tst Formula 12
or Table 10.
NOTE:
When applying static belt tension values directly, multiply
the required base static installation tension calculated in
Formula 12 by the following factors:
For New Belts:
Minimum Static Tension = Base Static Tension x 1.4
Maximum Static Tension = Base Static Tension x 1.5
For Used Belts:

9. Center Distance Allowances for


Installation and Tensioning
Since fixed center drives are not recommended, center distance allowances for a Gates PolyChain GT2 belt drive are
necessary to assure that the belt can be installed without
damage and then tensioned correctly. The standard installation allowance is the minimum decrease in center distance
required to install a belt when flanged sprockets are removed

from their shafts for belt installation. This is shown in the


first column of Table 11. This table also lists the minimum
increase in center distance required to assure that a belt
can be properly tensioned over its normal lifetime. If a belt
is to be installed over flanged sprockets without removing
them, the additional center distance allowance for installation shown in the second table below must be added to the
first table data.

Any degree of sprocket misalignment will result in some


reduction of belt life, which is not accounted for in the normal drive design procedure. Misalignment of all synchronous belt drives should not exceed 1/4 or 1/16" per foot of
linear distance. Misalignment should be checked with a
good straight edge tool. The tool should be applied from
driveR to driveN, and then from driveN to driveR so that the
total effect of parallel and angular misalignment is taken into
account.

10. Drive Alignment


Provision should be made for center distance adjustment,
according to the two tables on this page, or to change the
idler position so the belt can be slipped easily onto the
drive. When installing a belt, never force it over the flange.
This will cause internal damage to the belt tensile member.
Synchronous belts typically are made with high modulus
tensile members which provide length stability over the belt
life. Consequently, misalignment does not allow equal load
distribution across the entire belt top width. In a misaligned
drive, the load is being carried by only a small portion of the
belt top width, resulting in uneven belt wear and premature
tensile failure.
There are two types of misalignment: parallel and angular
(See Figure 1). Parallel misalignment is where the driveR
and driveN shafts are parallel, but the two sprockets lie in
different planes. When the two shafts are not parallel, the

108

drive is angularly misaligned.


A fleeting angle is the angle at which the belt enters and
exits the sprocket, and equals the sum of the parallel and
angular misalignments.

For those drives in which the center distance is greater than


eight times the small sprocket diameter, belt tracking can be
a problem. In these cases, the parallel position of the two
sprockets may need to be adjusted until only one flange
guides the belt in the system and the belt tracks fully on all
sprockets. Regardless of the drive center distance, the optimum drive performance will occur with the belt lightly contacting one flange in the system. The worst case is for the
belt to contact flanges on opposite sides of the system. This
traps the belt between opposite flanges and can force the
belt into undesirable parallel misalignment.
Improper installation of the bushing can result in the bushing / sprocket assembly being "cocked" on the shaft. This
leads to angular misalignment and sprocket wobble. Be
sure to follow the instructions provided with the bushings.

11. Belt Installation


During the belt installation process, it is very important
the belt be fully seated in the sprocket grooves before
applying final tension. Serpentine drives with multiple
sprockets and drives with large sprockets are particularly
vulnerable to belt tensioning problems resulting from the
belt teeth being only partially engaged in the sprockets during installation. In order to prevent these problems, the belt
installation tension should be evenly distributed to all belt
spans by rotating the system by hand. After confirming that
belt teeth are fully engaged in the sprocket grooves, belt
tension should be rechecked and verified. Failure to do this
may result in an undertensioned condition with the potential
for belt ratcheting.

When the machine designer requests shaft load calculations
from the drive designer, the following procedure can be
applied:

C. Solution For Magnitude Only


If only the magnitude of belt pull is needed, follow the steps
below. Use this method for drives with two sprockets. Use
the graphical method shown if the drive uses idlers.

Or, use the arc of contact on the small

B. Solution For Both Magnitude and Direction


Motor

If both direction and magnitude of belt pull are required, the


vector sum of TT and TS can be found by graphical vector
addition as shown in Figure 6. TT and TS vectors are drawn
to a convenient scale and parallel to the tightside and slackside, respectively. Figure 6 shows vector addition for belt
pull on the motor shaft. The same procedures can be used
for finding belt pull on the driveN shaft. This method may be
used for drives using three or more sprockets or idlers.
For two-sprocket drives, belt pull on the driveR and driveN
shafts is equal but opposite in direction . For drives using
idlers, both magnitude and direction may be different.

The vector sum of TT and TS can be found so that the direction of belt pull, as well as magnitude, is known. This is necessary if belt pull is to be vectorially added to sprocket
weight, shaft weight, etc., to find true bearing loads. In this
case, the easiest method of finding the belt pull vector is by
graphical addition of TT and TS. If only the magnitude of belt
pull is needed, numerical methods for vector additions are
faster to use.

A. Shaft Load Calculations
If true side load on the shaft, including sprocket weight, is
desired, the sprocket weight can be added to the belt pull
using the same graphical method shown in Section 12 on
this page. The sprocket weight vector is vertical toward the
ground. Weights for standard sprockets are shown in the
sprocket specification tables.

14. Self-Generated Tension

B. Bearing Load Calculations


In order to find actual bearing loads, it is necessary to know
weights of machine components and the value of all other
forces contributing to the load. However, it is sometimes
desirable to know the bearing load contributed by the synchronous drive alone. Bearing loads resulting from a synchronous belt drive can be calculated knowing bearing
placement with respect to the sprocket center and the shaft
load as previously calculated. For rough estimates, machine
designers sometimes use belt pull alone, ignoring sprocket
weight. If accuracy is desired, or if the sprocket is unusually
heavy, actual shaft load values including sprocket weight
should be used.

Properly designed and tensioned drives will not be significantly affected by self-generated tension. While belt
overtensioning can impose higher bearing and shaft loads
and lead to reduced belt life, undertensioning can result in
self-tensioning.
When a belt is too loose for the design load, the self-tensioning characteristic results in the belt teeth climbing out of
the sprocket grooves, leading to increased stresses on the
belt teeth, accelerated tooth wear and reduced belt life.

All synchronous belt drives exhibit a self-generating or selftightening characteristic when transmitting a load.
Laboratory testing has shown this characteristic is similar
with all tooth profiles. The designer/user should be aware
that self-tensioning can result in increased bearing and
shaft loads and reduced drive performance; i.e., short belt
life. This can be avoided by following proper tensioning procedures.

When a belt is severely undertensioned, the self-tensioning


characteristic can result in the belt ratcheting (jumping
teeth). When this occurs, significant shaft separation forces
are instantaneously developed in the drive, resulting in
damage to bearings, shafts, and other drive components
including the belt.
NOTE: This is true for all synchronous belts.
Maximum drive performance and belt life are achieved
when the belt is properly tensioned for the design load and
maintained.
