Re: Best Belt System

You could always play with polycord. Gotta love that stuff. Polycord, pvc and conduit it what we used. You could try using the fatty cim with the timing belt to power all of it. A good 3-1 or 4-1 reduction would serve you well too. Shouldn't cost you too much. Most expensive is that polycord.

Re: Best Belt System

Thanks guys! Does the cabinet material rip easily if it hits a snag under normal wear and tear on a robot? We are thinking about PVC as our rollers, any other suggestions?

Re: Best Belt System

The cabinet liner doesnt rip very much. The key is making to parralel cuts and seeming it together nicely. Then it will be great. You might want to line the conveyor with pvc roller reinforcements.

Re: Best Belt System

with the cabinet liner if you put it in a pillow case then iron the $@$# out of it. it wont stretch or break as easy.
