Having lived most of my life using imperial formulas and recently needing to work in metric, I find myself loving the metric system more and more. My dear ol Dad said you need to work in both so get used to it. It makes using these formulas so much easier. Great video, did you take pitch into consideration or mainly round/V belt? I may have missed that in the video but I work with timing pulleys and splined pulleys where the pitch usually is larger than the actual pulley diameter.

This is just a guess but it seems like you would double the distance between the center of the two pulleys and then add half the pi of each pulley. Is that right? But then what do you do for fan belts like on a motor where there are multiple pulleys? My masking tape idea seems like a much better option.

hello sir, im planning to make a gear pulley but i need to calculate the belt lenght, I have a question is the pulley diameter also a pitch diameter or the outside diameter of the gear pulley?

Hi, I like the style of your video. Could you explain why you have to multiply the belt length 4 times in the Centre Distance - Metric section. And why the 32 x and divide by 16. Thanks

I have a problem, I changed belts three times but they were broken every time. plz uplad a video for adjusting and belt alignment. or belt replacing parameters and balancing method etc.

Thanks Eng. Mindset. Really useful to brush up on something I learned 30 years ago. Consider: Do a screenshot of the implementation in Excel, showing the formula in that format.

Thank you for the clear explanation and especially making provision for metric. 95% of the world uses metric but not America. Its time those guys woke up to the metric system.

a little confused
how did we do the first imperial belt calculation without knowing the centre distance and vice versa if the formula is needed of each other

After watching this video I decided it was much easier to apply a piece of masking tape around the pulleys, cut it off and measure it. Worked like a charm!

If I use tensioner wheel between two pulley then what is the formulae for calculating the length of belt?
Kindly reply ASAP because its urgent

How would one calculate the diameter of a second pulley when the belt length, center distance and the first pulley diameter are known?

How to calculate for 3 belt pulley. If 2 are at same size and aligned with each other and larger one is at some distance from them?

To bad he didnt actually run through the calculation great that he showed the string but didnt actually do it in video

how much the car serpenine belt needs to cover the pulley suface in order to rotate it 100%? is it 20% minium or more?
