ContiTech's V-belt Conti-V Advance promises higher productivity
Improved design, expanded range of lengths, higher availability: the wrapped narrow-section V-belt Conti-V Advance from the ContiTech Power Transmission Group is now available, not just for project business but also as a stock item in small quantities. Thanks to a tensile member made of reinforced polyester, a fibre-reinforced compound, and a doubled fabric jacket, the belt is well suited to high-performance applications.
ContiTech developed the Conti-V Advance particularly for heavy-duty drives in the general mechanical engineering sector. The narrow-section V-belt is typically used in compressors, fans, construction machinery and gardening equipment. It is also suitable as a coupling belt as well as for applications that require counterflexing. Regina Arning, head of the Industry segment at ContiTech Power Transmission Group explains: "The Conti-V Advance offers increased overall efficiency as well as an increase of well over 40 per cent in power potential compared to standard V-belts. The better longitudinal stability also ensures minimal maintenance outlay. This allows the operating costs to be reduced and productivity increased."
Since the Conti-V Advance transmits significantly more power than a conventional V-belt, drives in which belt sets are used can be designed to be much narrower - a further advantage. The number of belts can thus be reduced, which helps to save on system costs. In accordance with ISO 1813, the Conti-V Advance is electrically conductive, temperature resistant from -30degC to +80degC, has limited oil resistance, and is available in SPZ, SPA, SPB, and SPC profiles.
