Flange fixing

Crimping method

Press flanges and machined flanges are usually secured by caulking with a punch as shown in the diagram below.

The number of crimps must comply with the following standards:

Unit: mm
Tip diameter mm 30 or less Over 30 and under 50 Over 50 and under 120 Over 120 and under 250
Number of rivets 4 8 12 16

Note

  • - Place the pulley on a flat surface and crimp the flange with a crimping punch.
  • - When crimping the side opposite the hub, insert the hub into a cylindrical jig placed on the board and crimp in a stable position.

Other fixing methods

Screw fastening method

The turning flanges of large tooth count pulleys such as P8M and P14M may be fixed to the pulley body with flat head screws depending on how they are used.

The number of flat head screws in the table below is the minimum number.

Tip diameter mm 120 or less Over 120 and under 250 Over 250 and under 450 Over 450 and under 650
Number of screws 4 6 8 12

Knurling method

A method of knurling and crimping on a lathe is also used.

Backlash-free tooth profile

Synchronous Belts normally have backlash when meshing, but for Synchronous Belts drives that require extremely accurate rotation, such as robots, electronic component assembly machines, NC devices, printers, and plotters, we manufacture pulleys with special backlash-free tooth profiles that reduce backlash and suppress rotation Angular Misalignment, so please contact us for details.
