ALPHAFLEX™/Helical Tooth Belts
Seamless, High-Precision Helical Belts for Smooth, Vibration-Free Power Transmission
Bando ALPHAFLEX™ belts are high-performance seamless polyurethane timing belts with a helical tooth profile, engineered for ultra-smooth, continuous power transmission in precision machinery. Manufactured using advanced molded endless technology, these belts eliminate joint weaknesses and deliver perfect pitch accuracy, quiet operation, and long-term dimensional stability.
Key Features
- Seamless, Joint-Free Construction – Manufactured as a single molded belt — no welds, splices, or weak points — ensuring uniform strength and smooth engagement.
- Helical Tooth Profile – The spiral (helical) tooth design enables constant tooth contact, reducing vibration, noise, and backlash for precise synchronous motion.
- High Tensile Strength Cords – Embedded steel or aramid tension cords provide outstanding resistance to stretching, ideal for high-speed and high-load applications.
- Exceptional Wear & Oil Resistance – Polyurethane construction resists abrasion, oils, and industrial chemicals, extending service life in demanding environments.
- Ultra-Quiet Operation – The helical tooth geometry minimizes noise and vibration compared to standard straight-tooth belts.
- Wide Temperature Range – Reliable performance from −30 °C to +80 °C, suitable for both cold and high-temperature industrial settings.
Applications
ALPHAFLEX™ Helical Tooth Belts are ideal for precision and high-speed systems where smooth operation is critical:
- Automated packaging and labeling equipment
- Office automation and banking machines
- Robotics and linear motion drives
- Textile and printing machinery
- Medical and measuring instruments
Advantages Over Conventional Timing Belts
- Uniform tension and perfect pitch accuracy
- Reduced vibration and mechanical noise
- Zero splice or weld points — longer operational life
- Smooth torque transfer, even at high speeds
- Maintenance-free operation
