PIX-X’ceed® Multi Ribbed Belts are an ideal solution for compact drives in household appliances and heavy machinery. Multi Ribbed Belts combine the high flexibility of flat Belts with a high power transmission capacity of V-Belts.

Multi Ribbed Belts enable economic solutions even under difficult drive conditions, such as large transmission ratios, high Belt speeds, small pulley diameters and back idler pulleys.

Multi Ribbed Belts consist of multiple V-grooves. The design allows operation on small pulley diameters. Multi Ribbed Belts offer high Belt speed. Multi Ribbed Belts are designed for high power transmission ratios and offer high power output.

PIX-X’ceed® Multi Ribbed Belts are available in PH, PJ, PK, PL and PM profiles, these Belts are available in the standard version, high temperature, elasticated, topcoat; for packaging machinery, FRAS; which are fire-resistant, anti-static Belts and double-sided multi ribbed belts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Multi Ribbed Belts, also known as Poly-V Belts or serpentine Belts, are drive Belts featuring multiple V-shaped ribs running along their length, providing increased surface area for power transmission.
They are extensively used in automotive engines, HVAC systems, industrial machinery, and various applications requiring efficient power transmission, such as in compressors and pumps.
Multi Ribbed Belts have multiple ribs instead of a single wide V-shaped belt. This design allows for increased contact area with the pulleys, enabling higher power transmission capacity and reduced slippage.
They are usually made from a combination of rubber compounds and synthetic materials like polyester or aramid fibers, providing flexibility, strength, and resistance to wear.
They offer higher power transmission efficiency, reduced noise, increased flexibility, and the ability to operate in compact spaces compared to standard V-Belts.
Replacement intervals depend on usage, load, environmental conditions, and manufacturer recommendations. Regular inspections and adherence to maintenance schedules are crucial.
Signs include visible wear on the ribs, cracking, loss of tension, increased noise during operation, reduced efficiency, or reaching the recommended service life specified by the manufacturer.
Replacing Multi Ribbed Belts requires specific tools and expertise due to their tensioning requirements. It's recommended to have trained technicians or maintenance personnel handle replacements.
Regular inspection for wear, proper tension adjustment, alignment checks, and following manufacturer-recommended maintenance schedules are crucial for maximizing belt lifespan and efficiency.
Multi Ribbed Belts are designed to function in various temperatures and conditions but may be affected by extreme heat, cold, moisture, or exposure to certain chemicals.
