    Good Resource on Timing Belt Information

    Hows it going guys,

    Anyone have any good resources on timing belts ? I would like to design a 2:1 gear system with HTD belts but having a hard time figuring out relationship between belt circumference and pulley distance. Is there a rule of thumb or something.

    Thanks !

    This should give you what you need, just select the type of timing pulley profile, metric/ inch, number of teeth and ratio, or a desired center distance.
