Tutorial: How to use 20 Toothless GT2 Pulley

These toothless pulleys are essential for applications requiring a rotary transmission system, such as 3D printer mechanisms, robotics, and movement mechanisms.

What you need

• GT2 Pulley
• Motors with idler wheel
• 6mm Belt

Steps

1. 1. Check the datasheet for compatibility between the pulley and the toothless pulley.
2. 2. Install the 20 toothless GT2 pulley.
3. 3. Check the central hole of the pulley to ensure it is compatible with the motor.
4. 4. Attach the 6mm belt to the teeth.
5. 5. Connect the pulley to the motor using a gear or transmission system.
6. 6. Test the system to ensure everything is working correctly.
7. 7. Adjust the belt tension to ensure proper operation.
8. 8. Check the stability of the system and make necessary adjustments.

Mini project

Build a 3D printer machine with a wheel motor and a GT2 pulley. In 30 minutes, you can mount the pulley with the teeth and belt, connect it to the motor, and test the system.

Common mistakes

• Do not use a belt of a different size than 6mm.
• Do not mount the teeth on a pulley of a different size than GT2.
• Do not properly adjust the belt tension.
• Do not test the system before using it.

Recommended accessories

Frequently asked questions

How to adjust the belt tension?
Adjust the belt tension until you feel a slight tension, but not too much.

Can I use a belt of a different size than 6mm?
No, check the datasheet for belt compatibility with the teeth.

What are the steps to mount the teeth on the pulley?
Check the datasheet for the correct position and mount the teeth with a small hammer or gear.

Can I use this pulley with a 5mm belt?
No, check the datasheet for belt compatibility with the teeth.
