One Belt, an Entire Plant--and the G. T. M.
The proper study of power nccc...arily in
cludes belts. No matter how competent the
generative source of your power. the final re
sults from a drive depend on the suttees of
the transmission. A belt may even be in
many respects a good belt and yet fail to de
liver the power load economically because
ill-adapted to the work required of it. The
solution of the problem is the right belt for
the particular need.
This is the idea underlying the service of the
G.T. M.—Goodyear Technical Man. The
basis of his recommendation for a single drive
or an entire plant is careful study of tile passer
problem involved. To tins analysis he brings
the force of experience, the escample of hun
dreds of comparative studies. the judgment of
a man grown expert in the operating and ob
serving of many drives under many conditions.
His plan is the scicnttfic method.
After analysis, the right belt is prescribed.
Is there heavy duty to be- performed? That
calls for one type. with the proper number of
plies. Is light work at high speed the order?
A belt of different specifications is required.
All the factors of the drive—pulley dimen
sions, center-to-center distances, load, align
ment and application—govern the selection of
the right belt for the specific use. The G.T. M.
plots these factors with the painstaking exact
ness of an engineer.

The plant insta:lation here illustrated—Nast
Brothers Lim; & Stone Co . at Knowles, Wis.
—typifies the value of G T. M. analysis and
Goodyear Belt quality. Two years ago, the
G.T. M. specified for the Nast plant at Marble
head, 'WI, a 6-inch. 4-ply Goodyear Blue
Streak Belt for the pulverizer drive—a belt
killing duty on which a new belt, with luck.
sometimes lasted a year. The Goodyear Blue
Streak for 22 months now has stood up to the
task so well—confirmed by performance the
analysisso unmistakably—that today
the whole Nast plant at Knowles is standard
ized on G.T. M. specified Goodyear Belts.
You may expect from Goodyear Belts the
highest values of good belting. Flexlble, they
hold to the pulleys. Unstitched. they wear
uniformly. Thy neither rip nor stretch.
They outwear ercrage belt—their first
cost is but little more. Proof of G.T.M.
analysis and Goodyear Belt quality is at the
command of every concern with a power prob
lem. The G.T. M. service is free. The Good
year Belt service is built into the belts.
Students and teachers of engineering who
would like to know mole about the G.T. M.
method of drive and plant analysis may find
much of profit to them in the Goodyear Me
chanical Goods Encyclopedia. A request by
letter to the nearest Goodyear Mechanical
Goods Service Station or to Akron will bring
one to you.
