Belt Driven Milling Spindles

Another popular category of milling spindles is the belt driven milling spindles. As the name suggests, these spindles are driven by a tangential belt system and used widely in milling and engraving applications. They are available in various sizes with a wide variety of speed and power range. The belt-driven milling spindles with their design flexibility, diversity, and performance are suitable for a wide range of milling applications.

Features of belt driven spindles

• Most belt-driven milling spindles are made of good quality steel for proper sturdiness and balancing while operating.
  
  
• They are dynamically balanced.
  
  
• Variable RPM can be achieved by using stepped pulley or change of pulley.
  
  
• The belt driven milling spindle bearing design is provided with improved rigidity.
  
  
• They are ideal for moderate to heavy combined radial and thrust loading associated with milling cutters.
  
  
• The spindles are arranged for air purging both front and rear.
  
  
• They are arranged with milling taper as the tool interface.
  
  
• The spindles are arranged with hole through spindle shaft.
  
  
• The housing style can be cartridge, flanged cartridge, foot Mount or block style.
