Open belt drive and flat belt drive are two types of belt drives used in machines. The main difference between the two is that an open belt drive has an open or exposed arrangement while a flat belt drive has a covered arrangement. Open belt drives are used when the distance between the shafts is large and the power transmitted is small, while flat belt drives are used when the distance between the shafts is small and the power transmitted is large. Additionally, open belt drives are easier to install and maintain, but they require more space and are less efficient than flat belt drives.
