Is Mitsubishi CVT Belt or Chain?
1 Answers
Mitsubishi CVT adopts a chain mechanism. Below are the relevant details: Automotive Engine Chain: Its driving sprocket rotates at speeds as high as 5-7k rpm, far exceeding the limit defined by the power transmission curve of chain drives. In addition to high-speed characteristics, automotive engine chains endure variable-speed and variable-load service conditions. Consequently, the failure mechanisms and design theories of automotive chains have undergone fundamental changes, opening up a new frontier in mechanical design and transmission disciplines. Early fracture failures of rolling parts and premature wear failures of chains have become key technical challenges awaiting solutions in the industry. Meanwhile, automotive chain systems are expanding further into high-speed applications, with research levels and depth continuously advancing. Introduction to Steel Belt: Refers to conveyor belts made of carbon steel used as traction and carrying components in belt conveyors, also applicable for bundling goods. They are narrow and long steel plates produced by various steel rolling enterprises to meet the needs of different industrial sectors for mass-producing various metal or mechanical products.
