TIMING BELTS

BRECOflex presents the new Standard Plus generation of Truly Endless timing belts developed for high precision positioning applications using bifilar cable arrangement and special production measures for improved belt length tolerance. The upgrade of manufacturing procedures has led to a significant improvement of belt pitch consistency, which results in an essential decrease of pitch tolerance deviations. This generation of BRECOFLEX® Timing Belts also features improved stiffness, increased power transmission properties, high rigidity, optimized running characteristics and accuracy. Due to the improved drive characteristics of these timing belts some pulley flanges can be eliminated.
