Due to constant usage, sheave grooves accumulate wear which affects the life span of belt drives. Worn sheaves accelerate belt wear and reduce the operational efficiency of belt drives.
Using belt and sheave gauges is an easy way to monitor machine wear and determine if further action is required. Follow along with Acoem technical trainer Stan Riddle as he guides us through the process of how to use a belt and sheave gauge.
