## Belt Drive Speed and Belt Length

Belt drives transmit power between shafts using friction between a belt and pulleys.

### Speed Ratio

**N2 = N1 x D1 / D2** (assuming no belt slip)

### Belt Length (open drive)

**L = 2C + pi(D1 + D2)/2 + (D2 - D1)^2 / (4C)**

where C is the shaft centre distance. This approximate formula works well for standard configurations.

Esempio Risolto

150 mm driver at 1750 RPM driving a 300 mm pulley, centres 500 mm apart.

  1. Speed ratio = 300/150 = 2.0
  2. Driven speed = 1750 / 2.0 = 875 RPM
  3. Belt length = 2x500 + pi(150+300)/2 + (300-150)^2/(4x500)
  4. L = 1000 + 706.9 + 11.25 = 1718 mm
