Continental Delivers a New Generation of Endless PU Timing Belts Onto The Market
Hanover/Dannenberg, Germany, February 28, 2023. Continental is launching a new generation of polyurethane (PU) timing belts in the Truly Endless product line onto the market – under the name Synchromotion. Steel cord reinforced polyurethane belts are considered to be extremely flexible, abrasion resistant and durable. The polyurethane cover ensures more efficient power transmission than is the case with other materials. With Synchromotion, customers can now choose between eleven different profiles in the length range 1,500 to 14,500 mm with a maximum width of 100 mm.

Customized efficiency
The Synchromotion can be manufactured in individual lengths. Precisely down to one tooth. This gives customers greater design flexibility and additional freedom, for example in terms of center distances. It opens up new perspectives for applications that were not previously covered by Continental. “This allows us to offer our industrial customers a significantly larger standard range, and they can now access the full product portfolio from a single source,” points out Sascha Heyde, who heads product management for industrial drive belts at Continental.

Individual manufacturing
The Synchromotion is suitable for conveyance and power transmission drives across the power range. These include synchronous conveyor systems and transport devices with sliding rails, as well as positioning and reversing drives in linear and control engineering.
The Synchromotion will be produced at the PU-specialized Dannenberg plant. Each order is produced to customer specification. The initial lead time at market launch will be around four to six weeks.
