FAQ

Find the information you need quickly: Our FAQ section brings together answers to the most frequently asked questions about Walther Flender's products, applications, calculation tools, and services.

To calculate a timing belt drive, you need the power, speed, gear ratio, center distance, and operating conditions. Based on this data, the appropriate timing belt profile, pulley dimensions, belt length, and required belt width are determined. For a safe and economical design, torque, service life, belt tension, and environmental conditions must also be taken into account. With the Walther Flender Belt Drive Navigator 2.0, the complete drive design—including documentation and CAD data—can be generated automatically.
With Walther Flender’s Belt Drive Navigator 2.0, timing belt drives can be designed online. The tool calculates a suitable timing belt drive based on the drive parameters and also supports multi-pulley applications.
The Belt Drive Navigator 2.0 is Walther Flender’s multi-pulley calculation program for the design and verification of timing belt drives. It combines calculation, selection filters, CAD configuration, and a download package into a single program.
Yes. The Belt Drive Navigator 2.0 can calculate the appropriate timing belt drive based on the entered drive parameters, even if no specific belt system has been selected beforehand.
The Belt Drive Navigator 2.0 offers selection filters for short lead times, optimal technical performance, maximum service life, and environmental factors such as moisture.
Yes. Timing pulleys can be customized in the integrated configuration area in terms of width, bore, keyway, hub, and threaded holes. What data do I receive after designing the drive with the Belt Drive Navigator 2.0? After the drive design is complete, the Belt Drive Navigator 2.0 provides a download package. This includes drive documentation, a CAD model of the entire drive, a bill of materials, and technical data sheets.
Yes. The Belt Drive Navigator 2.0 also supports the recalculation of existing drives if the timing belt has already been preselected.
After the drive is designed, Belt Drive Navigator 2.0 provides a download package. This package contains drive documentation, a CAD model of the entire drive, a bill of materials, and technical data sheets.
