The students are given different belt drive applications and are asked to size andselect all the components required to drive the system.The software is introduced to assist the student in mastering basic skills required to size a beltdrive system and gain a solid understanding of belt components. The program replaces the beltmanufactures catalog and allows the user to easily step through the process of selecting a beltdrive system.
