BELT TRACKING / GUIDING TYPES
A guiding system is essential for most of PTFE belts. Guiding may be by external guiding systems or by combining a system in the belt construction, such as metal studs, teflon pins or eyelets. External, electrical or mechanical systems are preferred, since they are suitable for all widths of belts and prolong belt life by preventing edge damage due to incorrect tracking.
Tips for optimizing belt life; Run at low tensions, use only flat rollers, ensure each roller is aligned properly and utilize an automatic guiding system.
