Many systems use timing/synchronous belts to modify speeds and relay the torque that powers equipment from electric motors or other drives to the driven equipment. These belts require proper alignment to optimize the belted drive’s longevity, offering the benefits of safety and efficiency in your system. At Megadyne Group, we have high-quality industrial timing belts to meet the needs of a range of applications.

V-belts are a variety of drive belts that feature tapered sides designed to fit into pulleys with side guides. Their unique shape, which features a trapezoidal cross-section, allows them to tightly wedge into grooved pulleys or sheaves and transmit power as tensions rise. V-belts are the most widely used type of drive belt due to their excellent torque transmission capabilities.

Flat belts provide reliable movement for goods and components in commercial and industrial conveyance systems, such as assembly lines. While conveyance systems may use a wide variety of surfaces or mediums to transport goods, flat belts have become a popular option for their versatility.

Flat belts feature a flat surface that will accommodate a variety of goods, a textured surface on the top and bottom for superior grip, and efficient transmission of power from the conveyor’s rolling parts. Keep reading to learn more about the advantages of flat belts, some of their most popular applications, and high-quality flat belt products from Megadyne.

Megadyne PV-ribbed belts are endless rubber or polyurethane belts with longitudinal V-shaped grooves that transmit motor power by friction from the driver to the driven side of the machine. Combining the benefits of flat and V-belts and built with high-quality components and a variety of belt cross-sections, they deliver high flexibility and great power transmission performance – adapting easily to a wide range of drive applications.

Engineered belts are the pride of Megadyne. Each fully customised power transmission belt, complete with all accessories, is precisely tailored to meet the exact requirements of the customer’s application. We offer a wide range of covers – including polyurethane, rubber elastomer, foam, and PVC – along with special modifications such as cleats, custom shapes, false teeth, perforations/grooves, and slots, among others.

Reliability, power, control – it all comes down to how the pulleys and belt work together. Megadyne manufactures every component of an efficient belting system, from standard and customised pulleys to accessories, timing bars, flanges, and more.
