OBJECTIVE

1. The purpose of this experiment is to determine the coefficient of friction between iron-steel
pulley and the belt at various angles.
2. To determine the effect of the angle of warp to the power that can be transmitted for belt drive
mechanism.
3. The experiments also will determine the effect of the belt tensions to the power that can be
transmitted for belt drive mechanism.

CONCLUSION

From the experiment, we can know relation between tight belt and angle of lap for flat belt.
Calculations for drives that depend on friction are subjected to these changes in the force value
corresponding to different angle value. The belt friction concept is very important in the
application regarding power transfer and transmission especially in a long distance purposes.When
the angles of lap for flat belt increase, the belt tight become smaller. Every types of belt have a
different driving force. Flat belt with incorrect slot installation needs more driving force compare
to the flat belt with correct slot installation because the flat belt with correct installation will give
the best grip at the slot.When running the experiment, we can recognize that to many errors when
using the pulley and belt especially when using the flat belt and measurement. The flat belt not
correctly installed in slot while we doing the experiment because of the shape and flexibility of the
belt. The flat belt also getting too loose from the friction because too many student use it to make
the same experiment. I recommend to change the new belt with the higher spec to student get the
more accuracy..
