PIX - X'set - Classical V-Belts
The first of the V-belts to enter the power transmission scenario. The continued efforts of PIX has enabled to achieve the power ratings considerably higher than most of the available in the market. The compounds used to build up these belts are well chosen to match the stipulated power ratings thus offering distinct advantages regarding the increased factor of safety on critical drives. The standards followed by PIX has put the tolerances to be much more stringent than BS 3790, which forms the basis of PIX classical belts.

Applications:
Primarily used as replacement on industrial drives. The classical belts are recommended in special applications such as V-flat drives. In the same manner these belts are advantages where reverse idlers have to be used, because of smaller heights.

PIX - X'set - Wedge Belts
Wedge belts have been the result of a continuous thrust by the manufacturers and users on higher power transmissions with reduced space requirements. Wedge belts can transmit higher power to the extent of 1.5 to 2 times the classical belts with the same top width. This has been achieved by dimensional changes, apart from better cord construction used and the optimum placement of the cord line which provides the best support to the cord while in motion. During manufacturing we pre-strech the cord before building into the belt. It offers lower stretch properties in the drive. This way we are able to reduce minimum installation and take up allowances significantly. For the efficient performance of wedge drive it is essential that the proper tension be maintained in the drive, failure to maintain the same will render the purpose of wedge belts ineffective.

Applications:
Wedge belts are used primarily on all new drives because of space savings achieved by using these belts. These belts find their extensive use in all industrial applications from light duty drives as those for pumps to heavily loaded stone crusher drives. In wedge belt drives, single belts can be replaced by banded belts without changing the pulley configuration.

Standards, Dimensions & Product Range:
We manufacture the entire range of wedge belts. The nominal length for wedge belts is designated as pitch length (Lp) in millimeter.
Features:
Top width to height ratio is 1.2:1
Temperature range: -18°C to +80°C
Maximum recommended belt speed is 30 m/s*
Permissible flex rate f=100 per second
Less deformation of the belt cross-section when in contact with the pulleys ensures better contact between the 
   belt flanks and the pulley grooves
Antistatic, Oil and Heat resistant
ATEX certified FRAS belts are also available

PIX - X'set - Narrow Belts
In construction and properties the narrow belts are similar to the wedge belts in performance, with the only difference being the additional top ridge provided in the narrow belts. These belts are manufactured according to specification RMA-IP 22 and also known as American Wedge Belts.

Interchangeablility Between Narrow & Wedge belts
________________
Narrow      Wedge
________________
  3V           SPZ
  5V           SPB
________________  

Acceptable agreement and exchangeability is found between 3V and SPZ as well as between 5V and SPB sections. It is possible to use 3V and 5V section belts in pulleys of SPZ and SPB sections respectively but corollary is not recommended as the top width of the RMA standard pulleys are smaller. Section 8V is however, larger than SPC. Profile SPC may in some cases be used in grooves intended for the 8V profile with some loss of power rating but the opposite is not recommended.

Applications:
These sections are standardized in USA and Canada therefore it is primarily used in machines exported to/from these countries. 8V section belts are used in heavy duty drives such as stone crushers.

Standards, Dimensions & Product Range:
The standard length designation for Narrow belts is as follows:
Belt number / 10 = Outside length in inches

Example: 5V 950 means 950 / 10= 95 inches outside length
Features:
Temperature Range: -18°C to +80°C
Maximum recommended belt speed is 30 m/s*
Maximum flex rate is f=100 per second
Antistatic, Oil and Heat resistant

PIX-X'set DS Hexagonal Belts

Hexagonal V-belts are also known as Double V-belts. In simple terms it can be considered as two V-belts joined back to back. The neutral axis containing the tension member is exactly half way up the section.

Applications:
Hexagonal belts find their application in the drives where several pulleys in the same plane are to be driven in the clockwise and anti-clockwise direction simultaneously. The polyester tension cord placed at the centre of the construction provides the belt extreme flexibility and low stretch properties. It is because of this positioning of the cord that these belts are not subjected to any other forces as in the case of normal V-belts. These are also used in rice mills. However off late these belts are rapidly finding application in industrial drives.

Drive Calculation:
The drive calculation for double V-belts differs from the drive calculations of two-pulley drives. The effective lengths, rotational speeds, transmission ratios and belt speeds are determined by the effective pulley diameters. There is no requirement of special pulleys for these belts. We suggest that the customer should get back to us for assistance in using these belts.

Standards, Dimensions & Product Range:
For all practical purposes the length of double V-belts is considered as the effective length which is roughly the belt length at the centre.
 

Features:
Temperature range: -18°C to +80°C
Maximum recommended belt speed is 30 m/s
Antistatic, Oil and Heat resistant

High Power Belts

 

In some critical applications, whenever torque is applied to the belts, they get deflected in the pulley groove. Such deflection leads to an uneven distribution of load across the tension members.

Therefore, it is important for the compression rubber to be resistant to the lateral force, when entering into the pulley grooves. We have developed belts with the characteristics to withstand this lateral force in wrapped and raw edge constructions which are called PIX X'set®HP and PIX X'tra®HP as and High Power Belts respectively.

These high power belts are designed in such a way that a composite layer with higher modulus across the belt section and with good flexibility along the belt circumference provides good support to High Modulus - Low Stretch (HMLS) tension member and thereby enhancing the power rating of the belt by 20% to 30% compared to the corresponding section of a standard V-Belt.

With the High Power Belts, the number of belts in a matched set of a multiple-belt-drive gets reduced and the belt life is also improved significantly. The HMLS tension member  minimises the belt stretch, improving the machine-up time.

Armid Cord Belts Belts

 

Aramid is an organic polyaramide fibre that is manufactured using complex chemical processes. It is generally used where the power transmission requirements are very critical, apart from space restrictions on the permissible installation and take up allowances. Aramid is used as tension member because of its high tensile strength.

Aramid Cord Belts are recommended where,
• There are restrictions on the drive width
• The installation & take-up allowances are minimal
• Critical drives
