THE POWER OF [E]MOTION

We are in motion for you …
… with innovative, new service ideas and individual system solu-
tions which we develop together with you. The Walther Flender
Group stands for expertise, experience and commitment. With top
class technology and craftsman’s know-how in the areas of drive
and conveyor technology, bearing, clamping, and sintering tech-
nology, in addition to the automotive sector. We‘re looking forward
to do more for you.
The Walther Flender Group – we are packaged know-how for drive,

conveyor, bearing and clamping technology as well as automo-
tive technology. For more than 70 years as a family company and a
market leader for timing belt drives, we have been offering a com-
plete product range: from individually manufactured single parts,
to drive assemblies and ready-to-install components, to industry-
specific complete solutions.
Complete expertise from engineering to implementation

A large proportion of our business today is made up of special
solutions. Experienced engineers from our development depart-
ment, but also mechatronic engineers and technicians advise you
comprehensively and develop a tailored concept based on your
requirements and assisted by powerful 3D CAD programs. The
products are tested in our own laboratories for their operational
characteristics under various conditions of use, and complete as-
semblies are tested by means of computer supported simulations.
During this process we work closely together with you in order to
achieve the optimum result.
Comprehensive quality management

The entire Walther Flender Group with its four divisions is certi-
fied to DIN EN ISO 9001:2000 and therefore fulfils the high quality
standards required by all of our customers. But you can expect
even more from us. Because individual quality assurance agree-
ments such as special sampling arrangements or companyspecific
performance clauses are equally a given for us. We are pleased to
make our quality management documentation available to you, in
order to ensure the maximum transparency.
New requirements bring new solutions

Markets are changing ever more quickly today. We help to shape
progress with innovations, flexibility and high service conscious-
ness. Our own company development department is involved with
new materials, processes and designs in order to optimise quality
and efficiency even more.
Service – as evident as it is first class

Availability is a key for business success. That is what we stand for
– with our logistics and project execution on the basis of the most
modern ERP systems. Furthermore, our consultants are accessible
to support you at all times. In the after-sales area, we support you
for example in adjusting the belt tension, checking the running
behaviour, or with important installation tips.

Introduction
The new PolyChain® timing belt systems

present a line of timing belts that ensure
up to 8 times higher power transmission
as compared with classic drive systems;
with the same space requirements, up to
30 % more power can be transmitted than
with conventional PolyChain® GT belts.
PolyChain® synchronous belts can be used
in existing PolyChain® GT drive systems;
they use the same pulleys and require no
modifications to the drive.
In addition to the existing PolyChain® GT2

belts, with tensile fibres made of aramid
fiber, Walther Flender Antriebstechnik

Storage & maintenance
PolyChain® timing belts require no special maintenance. During the wear-in period of heavy-duty drive systems there may be some
reduction in the belt tension; in this case, it is necessary to retighten the belts only once with 50 % of the original initial tension.
When storing belts, they should never be kinked or folded tightly, because this can damage the tensile members. Therefore, we recom-
mend that timing belts be stored in the original package until needed; during storage, belts should be protected from extreme tempera-
tures, humidity and UV radiation.

– High fatigue strength

No weakening of the shaft and pulley bore by keyways.
– Easy adjustment
Since no profile end mating is necessary, the components can

for narrow, disk-shaped wheel hubs. The 110 x 155 26 40 44 56 M 12 115 13000 260 225 160

Mounting bores
Disassembly bores
The empty bores should be filled
with grease to prevent penetration 1008 to 3030 3525 to 5050
by foreign objects. If high torques have to be transmitted and no feather key is used,
the Taper Lock® clamping bush can be driven further into the coni-
cal bore by lightly tapping with a hammer, using a suitable sleeve
or wooden block. Afterwards, the screws can be tightened a bit
more. This procedure can be repeated.

Product overview
WF timing belt drive systems
WF timing belts are available in 5 basic systems for diverse transmission requirements.
The powerful PowerGrip® GT3 and PolyChain belt systems ensure compact power density
with high cost effectiveness.
Shaped belts and flex belts in fixed lengths of your choice or as polyurethane metre ware
in a wide range of pitches are available as an ideal transmission solution for almost all
transport and conveyor requirements. These timing belts can additionally be supplied
with cams or various coatings on the reverse.
Special range of WF timing belt pulleys
Special builds of timing belt pulleys based on customer drawings can be produced on the
most modern manufacturing machinery. A wide selection of materials and moulded parts
in plastic, sintered materials, or die-cast complete the range for series applications.
WF shaft couplings
Various ranges of shaft couplings in torsion-proof or torsionally flexible versions are

available for a multiplicity of applications.
WF drive assemblies
Supported by 3D CAD systems and their corresponding calculation software, Walther

Flender Antriebstechnik develops and supplies complete assemblies for diverse drive
technology requirements. At the request of the customer, existing designs are optimised
in terms of technology and efficiency. An example of this is the unit shown adjacent,
which conveys paper webs.
WF conveyor rollers
Walther Flender Antriebstechnik designs and builds conveyor rollers for heavy weights
especially for skid transport in the automotive industry. Two models are shown as
examples (driven on one and both sides).
WF transmissions
The WF range of transmissions includes worm gears, straight bevel and cylindrical gears
and right angled gears for high torques up to 1,000,000 Nm. All types are available in
a practical range of sizes, with or without motors.
