Precision, Performance, Efficiency: What makes BRECOFLEX® timing belts the first choice
Reliable drive technology is the heart of today’s machinery. It must be precise, durable,
and low-maintenance, regardless of whether it’s used in packaging technology,
automation, or special-purpose-machinery. BRECOFLEX® timing belts from BRECO is
the solution for these requirements. As endlessly manufactured polyurethane timing
belts with high dimensional stability, they impress with precise power transmission,
durability, and adaptability. In this article, you’ll learn why these timing belts are the
preferred solution for numerous applications, how they work, and why your company
will also rely on our BRECOFLEX® quality products in the future.
In a market where production speed, energy efficiency, and operational reliability of
machine components are becoming increasingly important, you require long-term
investments which you can rely on. This is precisely where we and BRECOFLEX® step in
with their timing belts: These not only provide for seamless power transfer, but also the
precise synchronisation of various driving parts, and this over many years.
Since 1967, BRECO itself has stood for innovative “Made in Germany” drive technology,
with customised BRECOFLEX® timing belt and pulley solutions that set global
standards. As an industrial development partner, BRECO is a pioneer in precision,
flexibility, and customer-focused engineering.
Why BRECOFLEX® Timing Belts are so popular
This timing belt perfectly balances flexibility and precision. It is comprised of abrasion-resistant polyurethane, which can be combined with endless reinforced steel that can be adapted to your requirements This ensures that the length remains consistent over time, without re-tension the timing belt. These features make it excellent for applications that need high levels of repeatability and continuous operation. Its high rigidity allows for precise positioning, even at high speeds and weights. It reaches full capability in machines with synchronised movements, such as CNC-systems, printing presses, or Pick-and-Place systems.
A further advantage lies in the flexibility of the designs: BRECOFLEX® timing belts come in a variety of profiles, widths, and tooth pitches, tailored to your exact tooth length. Furthermore, both the reinforced fibre and the PU properties can be adjusted to meet your specific demands.
Special solutions involving customised coatings, millings, or bores can also be simply implemented. This ensures that you receive a product that is properly customised to your application with no compromises.
BRECOFLEX® timing belts are temperature resistant, low-maintenance, smooth-running, and are resistant to oil, grease, and many chemicals. Thanks to appropriate coatings and materials, they also operate well in hygiene-sensitive applications such as the food or pharmaceutical industries, despite several cleaning cycles or in cleanroom environments.
Five compelling advantages of BRECOFLEX® timing belts:
-
Endless manufactured for absolute length consistency
No re-tensioning is required, which reduces maintenance work and boosts process reliability. The belt length remains constant even under fluctuating temperatures or long operating times. This promotes consistency in product quality. -
High-precision power transmission
Ideal for applications that require accurate positioning and smooth running. The backlash-free tooth mesh provides exact movements, which are necessary for sensor-controlled or highly dynamic processes. -
Outstanding tensile strength in a compact form
Saves installation space and allows for more lightweight machine designs. The high-power density allows for smaller deflection radii and more compact drive units. -
Durable and low-maintenance
The PU material is durable, wear-resistant, and maintenance-friendly. Even in harsh media or frequent contact with lubricants the function remains intact. -
Temperature and chemical resistance
Can be used in harsh conditions. Temperatures range from -30 °C to +80 °C as typical, with custom versions going beyond that.
Typical applications for BRECOFLEX® timing belts
They are used wherever precision, reliability, and durability are required. BRECOFLEX® timing belts are particularly successful in the following industries:
- Automation Technology: Offers precise positioning of components and tools
- Packaging Industry: Synchronised motions in labelling systems and packaging lines
- Printing and Paper Processing: Smooth flow without slippage
- Food and Pharmaceutical Industries: Chemical-resistant, easy to clean, and hygienic
- CNC and Special Purpose Machinery: Maximum repeatability for precise mechanical processes
- Conveyor Technology: Features low-friction, quiet operation and high energy efficiency
Even for small batch sizes or individual projects, it is a cost-effective and technically sound option. Special bores, coated backs, or integrated guide profiles can be used implemented specifically.
