OPTIBELT : The history of the brand

In 1872, the Höxterschen Gummifädenfabrik was founded, which later became Arntz OPTIBELT KG in 1975. In 1948, the company started its first V-belt production. In the same year, the first patent for V-belts was filed by Arnold Arntz.

Today, OPTIBELT is a leader in power transmission technology. It has 8 production sites in 6 countries, 33 distribution sites in 30 countries and 24 logistics centers in 20 countries. It is also an innovator in the field of high performance power transmission belts. Indeed, OPTIBELT has a long history of innovation within the industry and continues to develop new technologies and materials that meet customer needs.

The products offered by OPTIBELT

OPTIBELT offers a wide range of belts and power transmission components including:

  • V-belts : are highly efficient, trapezoidal-shaped power transmission belts that are commonly used in automotive, industrial and agricultural applications. They provide excellent stability and vibration damping for smoother operation.
  • Grooved V-belts : These are belts that combine the high flexibility of a flat belt with the power of a V-belt. They have parallel grooves on the V-section. They are mainly used in the transport and logistics, printing and agricultural sectors.
  • Toothed belts : These are belts with teeth on the cover to ensure a slip-free transmission. It is commonly used as a timing belt but also in the transport and logistics, printing, foodstuffs, gardening equipment, textile, ventilation and compression sectors.
  • Twin belts : also called multi-strand belts. These are belts that have several strands (usually 2, 3, 4 or 5 strands). They allow to support irregular loads and shocks while ensuring a transmission of torques and a high power. They are commonly used in the road construction, agricultural, cement, and oil and gas industries.
