Cadenas vs correas dentadas vs correas dentadas EROJOINT
¿Cuál es el mejor sistema de transmisión de potencia? ¿Cadena, correa dentada o correa dentada de montaje mecánico EROJOINT®?
La industria utiliza los tres sistemas:
- Cadena: más flexible (más fácil de montar, disponible en todas las longitudes)
- Correa: más potencia transmisible (soporta mayores velocidades de rotación), más limpia (no necesita lubricación),
- Correa dentada EROJOINT®: ventajas de las correas y flexibilidad del montaje de la cadena (las correas EROJOINT® se fabrican abiertas y cerradas en la máquina como una cadena).

Cadena vs. Correa vs. Correa EROJOINT
| Winner | Comment | |
|---|---|---|
| Easy assembly | EROJOINT® chains and belts | The belts are closed, so it's easier to assemble an open chain and close it in the machine than a closed belt. EROJOINT® belts are delivered open and closed on the machine. It is therefore just as easy to assemble an EROJOINT® belt as a chain. |
| Repairability | Chains | A chain can be repaired using a replacement link. The belt must be completely replaced. |
| Efficiency | Belts | Belts weigh less than chains. Better efficiency. |
| Durability | Belts | Belts generally last at least twice as long as chains. EROJOINT® belts can last as long as closed belts, under certain conditions. |
| Maintenance | EROJOINT® belts and belting systems | The belt requires no lubrication and generally no tension adjustment. |
| Price | The winner depends on the application | |
| Weight | EROJOINT® belts and belting systems | |
| Noise | EROJOINT® belts and belting systems | Belts are quieter than chains. EROJOINT® generates no additional noise on the belt. |
| Cleanliness | EROJOINT® belts and belting systems | Belts don't need lubrication. The chain needs lubrication, and the dust agglomerates, generating dirt. |
| Available sizes | EROJOINT® chains and belts | All chain lengths can be made by adding links. EROJOINT® belts can be manufactured in any length and width. Closed timing belts are only manufactured to a certain standard length. |
| Temperature resistance | Chains | The general temperature range for belts is -30 to +80°C. The temperature range for chains is wider. |
| Chemical resistance to water, acid, oil, UV, chlorine, etc... | Belts | The belt can be made from a variety of materials (rubber, PU, ....), allowing more possibilities than chains. |
