As its name suggests, this kind of belt is ribbed lengthwise, which greatly increases the contact surface between the pulley and the belt. It works by adhering the ridge part of the belt to the pulley. Its one-piece structure allows for homogeneous distribution of the belt tension on the pulley’s contact surface.
Advantages:
Wide power range (from 0 to 600 kW).
Long service life and reliability.
Large transmission ratio possible.
Stable tension.
Quiet transmission.
Ribbed belts are used as drive belts on automobiles. They are also used for large electrical appliances (i.e. washing machines, dryers) and on concrete mixers, compressors, lawnmowers, etc.
