Pulley Care
BeltTension Pro
Pulley driven transmissions perfom best and require a minimum of maintenance when
they are well aligned and optimally tensioned.
With the BeltTension Pro you can measure the tension quickly and accurately.
This instrument is unique because it not only displays the tension, but it can tell you
if the tension is too high or too low. It is fitted with a Pulley type database and allows you to store and report measured values.

Belt-Alignment using Laser
The FL PAT - has revolutionised the alignemt of pulley and belt transmissions!
With the FL PAT, you are never in doubt as to whether your belt transmissions are aligned or not. By using the groove as reference, you will achieve a precise alignment which reduces belt wear, bearing failures and vibrations.
The Fixturlaser PAT comes with two line laser transmitters, each equipped with two spring loaded guides which fit into the pulley grooves. The Fixturlaser PAT is equipped with various sized removable guides to fit standard sheave sizes A-E (6 mm - 40 mm). Additional guides for alignment of timing belts are avilable as accessories.
The use of two laser transmitters with integrated targets, makes it very easy to find out what kind of alignment is required. Parallel offset, angular error and twist are instantly visible to the operator. Within a few minutes, the operator can determine if the machine requires alignment or not.
The alignment process is as easy as the mounting. Just turn on the lasers and look at the opposite mounted unit. The laser draws a line on the target label as in the illustration below. If necessary, adjust your machine position until the laser lines are aligned with the centre mark on both units.
