Belt Tensioning Systems

Belt Tensioning System enables controlled moving of the motor axis by hydraulic cylinders. With a hand-held hydraulic pump the cylinders of the belt tension system are moved upwards or downwards. Increasing or releasing the hydraulic pressure moves the motor and increases or releases the belt tension which is directly related to the pressure in the cylinders.

Belt tensioning system makes it possible to change belts on any critical machine in just a few minutes. No alignment needs to be done when changing belts or adjusting belt tension - it is done during the initial installation. Correct alignment and belt tension gives belts, pulleys, and bearings longer and more consistent life, while also providing the conditions for maximum efficiency.

Belt tensioning systems can be found in nearly every industrial environment which uses belt transmissions; as well as in clean environments such as the pharmaceutical industry, ventilation systems in hospitals and in other public buildings
