Text Image Block 1 - A change in perception: Building a case for raw edge belts in iron ore

In 1921, Warren G. Harding became the 29th President of the United States, insulin was discovered, baseball’s World Series was broadcast on radio for the first time, and the predecessors of Timken Belts invented the raw edge v-belt.
Early v-belts were made of leather or balata and fabric, glued or riveted together. The materials evolved to natural rubber with a fabric covering, but the harsh demands of industry pushed for a better belt. The solution put forward by Carlisle® belts by Timken was a raw edge die cut v-belt. This revolutionary multiple ply neutral axis raw edge v-belt was a huge success. The new raw edge v-belt was soon transmitting power on automobiles, industrial machines, business equipment and household appliances. The gripping power of raw edge sidewalls increases energy efficiency and reduces vibration for extended component life. The raw edge construction also allows more cord width for increased horsepower capacity compared to wrapped v-belts.

Exclusive access to Timken’s new Poly-round housing units

Last year, Motion Australia introduced the globally recognised Timken range of food-grade bearing products. These hygienic, widely applicable components have been met with customer satisfaction in many of Australia’s food handling sectors, including abattoirs, breweries and confectionary plants. Ensuring the use of food safe parts on conveyor, filling and packing systems is crucial in manufacturing, as firm HACCP and ISO codes are considered baseline across the industry.

The best thing about the Timken® spherical roller bearing solid-block housed units is that there’s no way you can break them,” says Mark Bristowe, who manages BSC’s Mulgrave branch in Melbourne.
