Cogged V-belts versus Smooth V-belts

To develop these deemed power savings, this article references previous publications and describes the different belt losses and benefits of cogged v-belts. It then outlines a methodology to associate motor size to a given v-belt profile and length based on guidelines by the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) and the Mechanical Power Transmission Association (MPTA). Are Raw Edge V Belt Better Than V-Belts? Finally, the article presents tables for standard v-belt cross sections and lengths with the calculated power associated with each belt and the corresponding deemed power savings from installing cogged v-belts. With this information, efficiency programs could transform the belt industry by developing up-stream efficiency programs, perhaps similar to the point-of-sales programs for CFLs or LEDs.
