Belts manufacturing design process

Belt and pulley selection is based on the design requirements of a specific machine train and the machine manufacturer will generally provide the belt system specifications. The following information is the minimum required for proper selection horsepower requirements, center-to-center dimensions of the drive and driven shafts, and the process envelope. 

Continuous-Laminate Process. This process is to foam continuously between two sheets of facing material, employing a laminator (double-belt conveyor). The productivity of this process is the highest, i.e., the yield of raw material is very good, and a high-quality product can be produced. The selection of material, foaming machine and laminator design are very important factors in this process. Excellent quality products have been manufactured by this process in the United States, Western Europe, and Japan.
