Belt transmission is one of the common units of the industrial equipment. In comparison with the other transmission types, it has a number of advantages since it provides smooth running, and noiseless operating of the mechanisms. Also, relatively acceptable cost of its components plays not the least role in wide application of belt transmission.
The technical specialists at the enterprises on polymer items production have faced the challenge on reducing friction in the stretcher. Increased wear was revealed in the contact zone of the belt made of polymer materials and the steel support. It moved by jerks. It caused to shortening service life of the unit, reducing quality of work and equipment efficiency. The challenge was made even worse by the operation conditions since the units operates at temperatures up to +130 °С, and sand and other abrasive contaminants might get into it.
The Моденжи engineers suggested using MODENGY 1006 anti-friction solid lubricating coating in the metal / polymer pairs. After this product was applied, friction coefficient has significantly reduced, stick-slip motion of the belt along the stretcher support was eliminated. In addition, the dry coating provided reliable protection to the stretcher elements against corrosion and dust and dirt sticking on it.
The technology of MODENGY Anti-Friction Solid-Film Coatings applying has proved its effectiveness, and is successfully used at the enterprises on polymer items production at the moment.
