Belt Surface
The patented running belt is made of individual slats mounted on a continuous set of
tooth belts. The tooth belts mesh with the front pulley assembly, which meshes with the
drive pulley. This results in no belt slippage. The individual slats are comprised of two
materials: a rubber based surface and an aluminum T-shaped frame. The rubber
material, approximately 3/8 inch thick, and the aluminum T-slat makes a WOODWAY
the "softest treadmill running surface in the world". The rubber running surface greatly
reduces shock of impact and helps reduce the local extremity pain associated with long-
term running. The positive belt engagement eliminates friction and heat, and therefore
increases the longevity of the running surface and treadmill itself.
The WOODWAY rubber belt surface is unlike other treadmills (which normally utilize a
cotton and nylon belt). All treadmills take time getting us to operating and using them.
With your WOODWAY, you may find, at first, that the surface has a "grip" to it you have
not experienced before. The more often you utilize your treadmill the more you will
become accustomed to the feel of it. Like all treadmills, it is important not to drag your
feet on a WOODWAY treadmill.
Transportation System
The transportation system is comprised of two bearing rail assemblies, an endless steel
wire reinforced lateral belt, and 7-inch diameter toothed roller drums. The bearing rails
support the running surface and are integral to reducing belt wear and friction.
The two endless lateral belts have many key functions: they hold the individual slats
together, transfer power to and from the motor and runner, and help keep the running
belt from tracking to the left or right. The two bearing rails consist of three main parts:
the bearing rail, individual bearings, and the bearing-supported roller guides. A smooth
section of the lateral belts roll over the bearings and roller guides.
The bearing rail supports all the bearings and roller guides and helps to distribute the
local loads throughout the treadmill. The roller guides on each side assist to reduce
tracking error and help support the running belt. The individual bearings on each side
also evenly distribute the load across the treadmill.
The toothed drums are used to eliminate any slippage. The drum assemblies have
heavy-duty pillow blocks (bearings) which also reduce friction.
This unique transportation system results in very little friction so you can simply push
the running belt under your own power!
