What are the Failure Modes of Transmission Belt?
1. Fatigue damage refers to the phenomenon of material damage under the action of alternating stress far below the strength limit of the material.
Any material will suffer fatigue damage. Therefore, when designing parts and engineering structures, the time limit for material fatigue damage must be considered to avoid unnecessary property losses and personal injuries.
2. Slippage means that when the transmitted force is greater than the limit of the sum of the frictional forces between the pulleys, overload slippage will occur and transmission failure will occur.
Belt transmission is a mechanical transmission that uses a flexible belt tensioned on a pulley to perform movement or power transmission. According to the different transmission principles, there are friction-type belt transmissions driven by the friction between the belt and the pulley, and there are synchronous belt transmissions driven by the meshing of the teeth on the belt and the pulley.
