Mark and track drive belts with confidence using durable films and high-performance ribbons designed for industrial rubber applications. Engineered for clarity and endurance, these solutions support both pre-cure and post-cure workflows to ensure reliable identification from production through end use.
From automotive to heavy equipment, these engineered markings deliver lasting visibility and traceability across diverse belt types.
Drive belts power systems across industries like automotive, HVAC, agriculture, power tools, and heavy equipment. From high-speed flat belts to multi-ribbed serpentine belts and precision synchronous belts, each design demands a reliable marking method tailored to its form and function. These film and ribbon solutions ensure long-lasting, high-contrast identification across diverse belt types and manufacturing conditions.
Popular in HVAC, automotive, and industrial machinery where wedge-driven traction maximizes efficiency.
Profiles vary from classical to narrow and cogged to accommodate pulley size and load variations.
Clear, durable belt markings support maintenance schedules and streamline production traceability workflows.
Toothed profiles ensure precise power transmission in timing-critical systems and compact mechanical assemblies.
Used in engines, robotics, and CNC machines where positioning accuracy and timing are non-negotiable.
Marking supports exact identification, reducing assembly errors and enabling consistent system performance.
Flat designs enable smooth motion at high speeds with minimal vibration or bending stress during operation.
Common in paper handling, textile mills, and precision packaging where consistent surface contact is needed.
Film-based marking enhances brand visibility and helps distinguish belt grades or line-specific variants.
Ribbed profile increases surface contact, delivering high traction across complex, compact pulley systems.
Essential in modern engines, alternator setups, and HVAC units demanding simultaneous multi-component operation.
Consistent print ensures belt function, source traceability, and visual distinction in densely packed assemblies.
Crossed, twisted, or profiled belts solve routing challenges and enable reverse or multi-axis movement.
Often found in custom tooling, textile equipment, or speed-variable pulleys requiring tailored belt behavior.
Precision marking simplifies part identification, custom pairing, and inventory control in low-volume systems.

Marking rubber drive belts requires materials that can withstand heat, pressure, flexing, and surface variation. These filmic materials and resin ribbons are engineered specifically for belt production—supporting both pre-cure and post-cure workflows. Whether applied to flat slabs or finished belts, they deliver crisp, long-lasting images for product branding, compliance, and traceability.
Select from common widths like 50mm, 100mm, and 150mm, or request custom sizes to align with your equipment and application method.
Run clean, high-contrast prints in-house using thermal transfer printers and resin ribbons tuned to the film’s thickness, finish, and belt compatibility.
Order films pre-printed in full color—including Pantone-matched branding or static codes—to reduce handling and speed up workflows when data is known in advance.
Applied before vulcanization, pre-cure marking requires thin films that can withstand intense heat and pressure while still transferring clean, legible images. These films are reverse-printed and pressed into raw rubber slabs during molding. Minimal surface disruption ensures a quieter belt and a smoother visual finish.
Thin films for minimal surface distortion
High heat and pressure resistance
Applied to uncured rubber slabs
Compatible with various cure processes
Post-cure films are applied after the rubber has been vulcanized, often following a surface grinding step to ensure a clean bonding area. These thicker films are optimized for heat-assisted transfer onto fully cured slabs and are easier to handle during alignment and application. The method offers increased flexibility for operations that prefer to separate molding and marking.
Every print method is designed to hold up in tough environments. High-temp ribbons and chemically resistant inks maintain clarity through flexing, friction, and extreme conditions.
We help align your marking system with real operational goals—like using two-color ribbons for clear date coding or high-contrast markings for faster scanning and fewer read errors.
Whether you need print-on-demand flexibility or color consistency at scale, we match the ribbon and film configuration to your workflow so labeling never gets in the way.
Print two colors in a single pass using ribbons with custom split positions. Ideal for combining brand graphics and variable data, reducing label application time and eliminating the need for separate color-coded overlays.
Match brand requirements exactly with custom PMS ribbon colors. Maintain consistent visual identity across product lines and reduce customer approval cycles by replacing pre-printed labels with on-demand solutions in the correct color.
Optimize print quality and label fit on narrow or curved belt surfaces. Custom-width ribbons improve efficiency by preventing overprint, reducing waste, and enabling flexible application on various belt sizes and slab dimensions.
When speed and flexibility matter, on-demand printing gives you control. Paired with compatible ribbons and transfer films, our solutions are designed for fast setup, accurate results, and reliable performance—without constant adjustment or oversight.
Our transfer films and ribbons work seamlessly with heavy-duty printers built for non-stop use. Rugged models with metal covers, like Zebra’s ZT series, deliver consistent results even in harsh environments with heavy belts, airborne particulates, and frequent contact.
Every material pairing includes detailed heat, speed, and pressure settings to achieve optimal image transfer. These tested parameters help avoid trial and error, ensuring sharp, durable images from the start—no smearing, ghosting, or premature wear under demanding conditions.
Transfer films are paired with ribbons that deliver exceptional durability—resisting abrasion, chemicals, and heat. This ensures the printed image stays readable during production, curing, transport, and use, even on belts that bend, stretch, or experience high-speed, high-friction contact.
