Timing belts for the appliance industry need to be strong enough to last for long periods of continuous use at high rotational speeds, especially when it comes to commercial appliances. The added challenge is that appliance belts also need have low noise, low vibration properties. Two common applications are the powering the agitator and tumbler in commercial and domestic washers and dryers.

Both large and small appliances need belts to power their drives. Aside from washers and dryers, other types of small appliances that use belts include sewing machines and juice extractors, and on the larger scale, exercise equipment and HVAC systems.

While many appliance applications use rubber belts, flat belts and V-belts, timing belts still have their place. Speak to an applications engineer today about BRECOflex’s options and how they can provide a smooth, quiet, no slip drive for your appliance application.
