Every drive has its own set of unique requirements and design challenges, including but not limited to:
- System geometry
- Component loads and inertia
- Acceleration/deceleration rates
- Torsional or angular vibration
- Speed range
Gates engineers can help you meet these challenges. Tapping our expertise with belt-driven equipment can help you overcome real-world application problems, whether designing for optimal life (be it long or short), working with inherent misalignment, or dealing with slip vibration and hub load.
We understand and speak the same engineering language, and have the tools to support you through the entire equipment design process. Project tracking is easy and efficient using our 4-Phase Advanced Product Quality Planning. Our software programs include solid design and modeling files that work with commonly used CAD/CAM/CAE programs (Pro/ENGINEER®, Solidworks®, Autodesk Inventor®, CATIA® and others). Computer modeling reduces or eliminates drive design iterations and leads to solutions earlier in the project.
