Description:
These smooth (round) belts have a Durometer hardness of A70 and can
withstand temperatures from -35 to 250 degrees F. Their elastic nature allows them to
apply tension on the pulleys when stretched and the rubber construction creates
excellent grip characteristics between the pulley and belt. Smooth belts can be used
in a variety of applications including follow focus systems, linear drives, 90 degree
drives, XY tables, robot tracks, battery hold-downs, etc.
Actobotics is a robotics building system based around extruded aluminum channels,
gears, precision shafts, and ball bearings. Thanks to the two standardized hole
patterns, nearly all Actobotics components can be intuitively connected together. The
wide range of components makes building complex electromechanical prototypes or
finished projects a reality.
Note:
These belts have a stretch factor of 12-26%. A low stretch factor will apply a
small amount of side-load to the axles and create less friction while a higher selected
stretch factor will apply slightly more side-load to the axles and have more resistance
to belt deflection.
