Determine necessary elongation
Should the elongation be too high, a larger width must be selec-
ted or ATL10 type of the same width can be used.
Check flexibility

Select belt
From selection graph mass/acceleration of AT belts (preferred
for linear positioning because of the higher stiffness) select a
25 AT10 belt with aluminium pulleys z = 32 (d
