Steady guide-friction screen
Belt axis force / speed
Inputs
Declared total translated load, including the relevant belt mass where applicable.
User-entered guide friction coefficient from 0 through 1; it is not selected by this workspace.
Declared effective drive-pulley diameter; belt tooth engagement and bend limits are excluded.
Steady requested belt speed used only for pulley rpm and mechanical-power arithmetic.
User-entered transmission efficiency; this workspace does not select or validate it.

Method
Formula, when it applies, and when it does not
Calculate steady guide-friction force, drive-pulley speed, declared-efficiency torque, and mechanical power for one horizontal belt-driven axis.
Fa = mgμ; np = 60v/(πdp); T = Fadp/(2η); P = Fav
When
- Horizontal axis
- Steady speed
- Declared guide friction
- User-entered efficiency
Don’t
- This is a horizontal, steady-speed belt-axis screen using user-entered guide friction and efficiency. It excludes acceleration, belt stretch and tension, tooth engagement, pulley/belt selection, external process load, vertical/gravity axes, inertia, positioning accuracy, rail load, thermal/duty limits, motor or gearbox selection, controls, safety, and system approval.
