Problems – Causes – Remedies<br />

Problems Causes Remedies<br />

Excessive wear on the loaded<br />

face of the belt tooth<br />

Excessive wear on the land<br />

between the belt teeth<br />

Exceptional wear on the<br />

belt sides<br />

Belt teeth shear off<br />

Excessive lateral runout<br />

Pulley flanges becoming detached<br />

Apparent belt stretch<br />

Excessive running noise<br />

Abnormal wear and tear on the<br />

timing pulleys<br />

Embrittlement of the belt top<br />

surface<br />

Cracks in the belt top surface<br />

Softening of the belt top surface<br />

Faulty belt tension<br />

Pitch error, belt to pulley tooth<br />

Overload<br />

Excessive belt tension<br />

Drive is under designed<br />

Defective timing pulleys<br />

Faulty axial parallelism<br />

Defective flanged pulleys<br />

Centre distance fluctuation<br />

Number of teeth in mesh too small<br />

Overload<br />

Faulty axial parallelism<br />

Timing pulleys not aligned<br />

Shock loading with excessive<br />

belt tension<br />

Timing pulleys not aligned<br />

Very high lateral pressure from the<br />

timing belt<br />

Faulty installation of the flanged pulleys<br />

Recovery of length after storage<br />

Bearings flexing<br />

Faulty shaft alignment<br />

Excessive belt tension<br />

Pulley diameter too small<br />

Overload on the timing belt<br />

Excessive belt width coupled with high<br />

speed<br />

Unsuitable pulley material<br />

Faulty meshing<br />

Insufficient surface hardness<br />

Ambient temperatures above +100 °C<br />

Excessive radiated heat<br />

Ambient temperatures below –30 °C<br />

Contamination by incompatible media<br />

Correct the tension<br />

Check the belt section, replace, if necessary<br />

Use wider belts with higher power<br />

transmission capacity<br />

Reduce the tension<br />

Increase the width of the timing belt or<br />

increase the diameter of the timing<br />

pulleys<br />

Replace timing pulleys<br />

Realign shafts<br />

Replace flanged pulleys<br />

Reinforce bearings and/or housing<br />

Increase diameter of the small pulley<br />

or choose a wider belt<br />

Use a wider belt or larger pulleys<br />

Realign shafts<br />

Realign the pulleys<br />

Reduce the belt tension<br />

Realign the pulleys<br />

Realign shafts<br />

Install flanged pulleys correctly<br />

Correct the belt tension<br />

Reinforce and secure bearing mountings<br />

Realign shafts<br />

Reduce the tension<br />

Enlarge pulley diameter<br />

Increase belt width and/or<br />

teeth in mesh<br />

Reduce belt width by redesigning<br />

using heavier belt section<br />

Use a stronger material<br />

Replace timing pulleys<br />

Use harder material or<br />

harden the surface<br />

Choose an extra heat resistant belt<br />

quality<br />

Shield or use a suitable belt quality<br />

Use an extra cold resistant belt quality<br />

Shield belt or use suitable belt quality
