The magnetic field may be supplied by either a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. [...]
Belt drives for power transmissions are classified as frictional drives since the belt transmits power via friction between the belt and the driving and driven pulleys. Flat belts and V-belts transmit power by their grip on the pulley. The three major factors that determine the potential of grip are […]
