Double-sided timing belt spreads the
load
Range is offered with a choice of tooth profiles and with materials and construction technology to suit heavy-duty high-torque or high-stress high-speed drives.
Transdev has added the Conti Synchrotwin double-sided timing belt to its wide range of power transmission products Aimed at multiple synchronous drive applications where space and weight are at a premium, the double sided timing belt can power same direction or opposing direction rotary systems with force distributed on both sides; and with efficiency to 98%

Tension meter covers all types of belt
Following on from the success of its original TSM3 handheld tension meter for steel reinforced Synchroflex and Breco belts, Transdev has released the TSM4 tension meter for all belting products.
The range is offered with a choice of tooth profiles and with materials and construction technology to suit heavy-duty high-torque or high-stress high-speed drives.
A standard version is also available for economical lower to mid-power performance.
The Conti Synchrotwin double sided timing belt range uses a polychloroprene backing with aramide or glass cord tension members.
In particular, the aramide tension member maintains a constant belt length with maximum resistance to tooth deformation that is especially advantageous under rapid direction reversal conditions.
The heavy duty CXP III and CXA III versions belts also include an aramide reinforced polychloroprene elastomer tooth profile coated with a polyamide fabric for maximum durability.
Its suitability to high torque or high speed applications results in a 300% extended life, reduced noise levels and high abrasion resistance.
The maintenance free timing belt does not require lubrication or retensioning, is antistatic to ISO9563 and is also partially resistant to oils.
The high torque CXP III version can achieve the same power rating with a 20% narrower belt width when compared with the standard version.
The Conti Synchrotwin double-sided timing belt range is offered in HTD and STD tooth profiles in 5, 8 and 14mm pitches, in pitch lengths to 2310mm.
The standard version is also available in the H 12.7mm-pitch trapezoidal tooth profile.
Application areas for this range will include printing, packaging and textile machinery, office automation equipment, heavy duty roller conveyors, machine tools, compressors and chain drive replacement.
