L = 2*C+(pi*(d+D)/2)+(((D-d)^2)/(4*C))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables
Constants Used
pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288
Variables Used
Belt Length - (Measured in Meter) - Belt Length is the length of the transmission belt that is used to transmit power from one pulley to the other.
Centre Distance between Pulleys - (Measured in Meter) - Centre Distance between Pulleys is the distance between the centres of the big pulley and the small pulley.
Diameter of Small Pulley - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Small Pulley is the distance from side to side of the flat of the Small pulley.
Diameter of Big Pulley - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Big Pulley is the distance from side to side of the flat of the Big pulley.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Centre Distance between Pulleys: 1600 Millimeter --> 1.6 Meter (Check conversion here)
Diameter of Small Pulley: 270 Millimeter --> 0.27 Meter (Check conversion here)
Diameter of Big Pulley: 810 Millimeter --> 0.81 Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
L = 2*C+(pi*(d+D)/2)+(((D-d)^2)/(4*C)) --> 2*1.6+(pi*(0.27+0.81)/2)+(((0.81-0.27)^2)/(4*1.6))
Evaluating ... ...
L = 4.94202253293849
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
4.94202253293849 Meter -->4942.02253293849 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
4942.02253293849 4942.023 Millimeter <-- Belt Length
(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

5 Crossed Belt Drives Calculators

Belt Length for Cross Belt Drive
Go Belt Length = 2*Centre Distance between Pulleys+(pi*(Diameter of Small Pulley+Diameter of Big Pulley)/2)+(((Diameter of Big Pulley-Diameter of Small Pulley)^2)/(4*Centre Distance between Pulleys))
Wrap Angle for Small Pulley of Cross Belt Drive
Go Wrap Angle for Cross Belt Drive = 3.14+(2*asin((Diameter of Big Pulley+Diameter of Small Pulley)/(2*Centre Distance between Pulleys)))
Center Distance given Wrap Angle for Small Pulley of Cross Belt Drive
Go Centre Distance between Pulleys = (Diameter of Big Pulley+Diameter of Small Pulley)/(2*sin((Wrap Angle for Cross Belt Drive-3.14)/2))
Diameter of Small Pulley given Wrap Angle for Small Pulley of Cross Belt Drive
Go Diameter of Small Pulley = (2*Centre Distance between Pulleys*sin((Wrap Angle for Cross Belt Drive-3.14)/2))-Diameter of Big Pulley
Diameter of Big Pulley given Wrap Angle for Small Pulley of Cross Belt Drive
Go Diameter of Big Pulley = (2*sin((Wrap Angle for Cross Belt Drive-3.14)/2)*Centre Distance between Pulleys)-Diameter of Small Pulley
