Steel Belt and Tracking: 1. Crown pulley and Flange pulley

Due consideration should be paid to tracking in choice of belts. When a belt does not move straight in running direction, it may come off pulleys and rotation halts. When we talk about endless belts without perforation, very popular tracking method is ‘crown pulley.’ We do not recommend flange pulleys. It is true that when belt width is just around 10 to 20mm, tracking is done by flange pulleys. But in general belt width edges are damaged by flanges.
