Open belt drive length calculator online

Approximate open-belt length = 2C+π(D+d)/2+(D−d)²/(4C). Use this to calculate a stated mathematical relationship from your own explicit assumptions. Units and input order are part of the calculation; no changing external rates or laws are inferred.

How to use it

Enter 3 comma-separated numbers in this order: large pulley diameter, small pulley diameter, centre distance. Choose Calculate. Review the output, then copy or download it.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Approximation with consistent length units; belt thickness, tension and exact contact geometry are excluded.
  • Combined input is bounded to 150,000 characters; output text is bounded to 1.2 million characters. Some algorithms impose smaller limits, stated in their error messages.
  • Use a dot as the decimal separator and commas or spaces between numeric entries. The calculation uses floating-point arithmetic unless exact integers are explicitly stated.
