Belt Splice Analysis

CDI has developed and tested belt splices for some of the world's most notable belts, including the ST8000 belt for Veyance Technologies, which when implemented will be the world’s strongest belt in application.

Testing of the ST10000 Belt

CDI designed, built, and sold to Veyance Technologies the machine that tested the ST10000 belt. The tester is the world's largest and strongest Two-Pulley Dynamic Splice Tester.

ST10000 Belt Testing

Analysis of the ST10000 Belt

During testing of the 5-step splice pattern mentioned above, CDI ensured that fatigue cycles exceed the 50,000 benchmark at a belt tension above 50% of the belt breaking strength.
