Belt Compliance Measurement

Introduction

The purpose of this page is to propose a standardized, easily replicable test stand and procedure to obtain belt compliance data. Currently, real performance data for the tiny belts used in 3d printers is difficult to find and this makes engineering the system difficult. A standard test method could help the community generate data to fill this information gap and to compare belt suppliers, brands, and models quantitatively. The bill of materials, construction details, theory, and use are covered in this page.
