Re: Center to Center Distance in Power Transmission

For belt C-C, I've been using a free program from Gates called Design IQ 3. It's a little quirky at first but once you figure it out it works well. It can handle different size pulleys and multiple tensioners and has a list of standard size belts. I've also used the SolidWorks belt/chain feature and the results match the Gates program.
