Kettingen vs tandriemen vs ERO Joint® tandriemen
Wat is het beste krachtoverbrengingssysteem? Ketting, tandriem of ERO Joint® mechanisch geassembleerde tandriem?
De industrie gebruikt alle drie de systemen:
- Ketting: flexibeler (gemakkelijker te monteren, verkrijgbaar in alle lengtes)
- Tandriem: meer overdraagbaar vermogen (bestand tegen hogere draaisnelheden), schoner (geen smering),
- ERO Joint® tandriem: voordelen van riemen en flexibiliteit van kettingmontage (ERO Joint® riemen worden net als een ketting open en dicht op de machine geproduceerd).

Ketting vs. Riem vs. ERO Joint® Riem
| Winner | Comment | |
|---|---|---|
| Easy assembly | Chaînes et courroies ERO Joint® | The belts are closed, so it's easier to assemble an open chain and close it in the machine than a closed belt. ERO Joint® belts are delivered open and closed on the machine. It is therefore just as easy to assemble an ERO Joint® belt as a chain. |
| Repairability | Chains | A chain can be repaired using a replacement link. The belt must be completely replaced. |
| Efficiency | Belts | Belts weigh less than chains. Better efficiency. |
| Durability | Belts | Belts generally last at least twice as long as chains. ERO Joint® belts can last as long as closed belts, under certain conditions. |
| Maintenance | ERO Joint® belts and belting systems | The belt requires no lubrication and generally no tension adjustment. |
| Price | The winner depends on the application | |
| Weight | ERO Joint® belts and belting systems | |
| Noise | ERO Joint® belts and belting systems | Belts are quieter than chains. ERO Joint® generates no additional noise on the belt. |
| Cleanliness | ERO Joint® belts and belting systems | Belts don't need lubrication. The chain needs lubrication, and the dust agglomerates, generating dirt. |
| Available sizes | ERO Joint® chains and belts | All chain lengths can be made by adding links. ERO Joint® belts can be manufactured in any length and width. Closed timing belts are only manufactured to a certain standard length. |
| Temperature resistance | Chains | The general temperature range for belts is -30 to +80°C. The temperature range for chains is wider. |
| Chemical resistance to water, acid, oil, UV, chlorine, etc... | Beltz | The belt can be made from a variety of materials (rubber, PU, ....), allowing more possibilities than chains. |
