Publish Time: 07/24 2023 Author: Site Editor

Splicing a polyurethane (PU) timing belt using a timing belt joint machine requires precision and attention to detail. This process should be performed by trained personnel following manufacturer guidelines and safety precautions.

1. Prepare the materials:

- Ensure you have the correct size and type of PU timing belt suitable for the machine and application.

- Check that the timing belt joint machine is in good working condition and calibrated properly.

- Gather any additional tools or accessories needed for the splicing process, as specified by the manufacturer.

2. Clean and prepare the belt ends:

- Clean the belt ends thoroughly to remove any dirt, debris, or contaminants that could affect the splice's strength and integrity.

- Use appropriate cleaning agents or solutions recommended by the belt manufacturer.

3. Cut the belt ends:

- Use the timing belt finger punch machine to make fingers on both belt ends. Ensure the ends are perpendicular to the belt's length to ensure a proper splice.

4. Align the belt ends:

- Position the belt ends carefully on the timing belt joint machine's platform or fixture, ensuring they align correctly. Proper alignment is crucial for a strong and smooth splice.

5. Set the machine parameters:

- Set the appropriate temperature, pressure, and duration for the splicing process according to the belt manufacturer's guidelines. These settings may vary based on the type and size of the PU timing belt.

6. Splice the timing belt:

- Activate the timing belt joint machine to begin the splicing process.

- The machine will heat and press the belt ends together. This process creates a strong and durable joint.

7. Post-processing:

- Once the splice has cured completely, trim any excess adhesive or flash from the joint to ensure a smooth and even surface.

After these procedures, you can get a belt with a perfect joint effect.
