Motor Slide Bases: Effective Solutions for Belt Tensioning

Motor slide bases, also known as belt tensioners, are essential devices for optimizing belt tensioning in power transmissions. Thanks to their advanced design, these slide bases allow adjustment of the center distance for transmissions with double expansion variable pulleys, as well as standard pulleys (V-groove or timing pulleys).

Key Features

Easy installation and alignment: The compact shape and slotted fixing holes simplify installation and ensure quick pulley alignment.
Optimized tensioning and maintenance: Designed to allow belt tensioning or replacement without having to remove the electric motor.

Wide range of applications:

Compact series (SX-SS): Ideal for electric motors from size 56 to 200.
Rail series (SA-SB-SC): Suitable for motors up to size 355.

Advantages of Motor Slide Bases

Motor slide bases improve the efficiency of mechanical transmissions by allowing precise and simple adjustment of belt tension. Their robust structure, made from corrosion-resistant materials, makes them perfect for applications in demanding conditions.

Thanks to their versatility and ease of use, motor slide bases are the ideal solution to ensure optimal performance and minimize machine downtime.
