What are common belt problems in textile machines?

In textile machinery, belts operate under high speed, continuous duty, and heavy lint environments. Common belt issues include:

• Premature wear caused by dust and fiber build-up
Lint and textile dust increase surface abrasion and reduce belt service life.

• Slippage and unstable speed transmission
Contaminants on belt surfaces can lower friction, leading to speed fluctuation and productivity loss.

• Noise and vibration at high operating speeds
Poor belt material or tooth profile design may cause resonance and abnormal sound.

• Belt elongation and loss of synchronization
Inferior tensile cords can stretch over time, affecting machine accuracy and yarn quality.

• Cracking or material fatigue under continuous operation
Long production cycles accelerate aging in low-quality rubber compounds.

Sables addresses these challenges with wear-resistant materials, optimized belt structures, and high-stability tensile cords, ensuring reliable performance in demanding textile environments.
