What is timing pulley?

Timing pulleys are specialized pulleys that have either teeth or pockets around the outside diameter of the pulley body. Timing teeth engage holes in the metal belt, while timing pockets engage drive lugs on a belt's inner circumference. These teeth or pockets are used only for timing, not for power transmission.

How timing pulleys work?

The synchronous wheel transmission is composed of an endless belt with equal-spaced teeth on the inner peripheral surface and a pulley with corresponding teeth. During operation, the toothed teeth mesh with the tooth grooves of the pulley to transmit motion and power, which is integrated with the belt. A new type of belt drive with the advantages of transmission, chain drive and gear transmission.

What is gt2 timing pulley?

2mm pitch GT2 Pulley. The GT2 or 2GT Tooth Profile timing pulley prevails in the 3d printing hobby cause the Round tooth profile brings high precision of non-backlash, were known as today's Reprap Pulley.

What is a timing pulley flange?

Timing pulley flanges are used to maintain belt contact with a timing pulley in power transmission applications.Timing pulley flanges are manufactured to fit timing pulleys of the same pitch and size. The dimensions of a pitch, including the mating flange, are specified by the number of grooves.

What are synchronous belts used for?

The trapezoidal tooth profile first used on synchronous belts is recognized as standard. Belts with this configuration are commonly used in machine tools, textile machinery, home appliances, business equipment, and as camshaft drives in engines.
