LaVezzi precision sprockets are used in highly automated
electronics production to move and accurately register lead
frames, carrier tapes for surface mount components and con-
tacts in the plating process. The great variety of perforation
sizes, shapes and pitches demands a full range of sprocket
tooth configurations. LaVezzi engineers can assist you in
selection of the proper design for your application.

VKF™ SPROCKETS . . . “VERY KIND TO FILM”
Whether driving film, perforated lead frames or in TAB applications, protecting perforations against
premature failure is often critical. Thus the form and finish of the VKF sprocket has been designed to
reduce damage to the perforation.
The VKF tooth has a maximum width across the flat driving face to minimize the stress on the perforation
face. The corners of the teeth have been radiused to clear the perforation radii. This eliminates the
potential for damage when lateral motion causes the perforations to slide over a relatively square standard
tooth corner.
The finish of the VKF tooth form has been enhanced using the Radi-Blend™ process. With this procedure,
every intersecting tooth edge, both at the sides and the top, is blended and burnished to offer a polished
surface. This insures a smooth engagement and disengagement of the perforated edge with the tooth
surface.
Although the stock VKF design was originally intended for materials perforated per ANSI-SMPTE 102-1991
or 139-1986 (see following stock parts, pages 9 and 10), the process may be applied to other tooth forms.
Super 16 and 35, as well as 70mm tooth shapes, have been improved using this procedure (see Posi-Trol,
page 11). Contact LaVezzi for information on variations or other similar applications.

The tooth form of the Posi-Trol line has been dimensioned to fill the perforation
(on one band) as fully as possible. This allows the material to be guided at the
perforations and eliminates the need for guide flanges, rollers, rails or shoes.
The wide teeth have been properly machined to insure no interference with the
corner radii of the film or other materials. The narrow teeth are dimensioned for
driving only (see Figures 1 and 2).
Note that this design can be modified to suit various application requirements.
For example, the radial tooth width can be increased to minimize backlash. Also,
this tooth form can be utilized with any size sprocket with any number of teeth.
Caution! The Posi-Trol line may not be used with material perforated per
ANSI-SMPTE Standard 102-1991.

The four corners of the wide tooth band have been
radiused to avoid interference with the fillet radius.
The amount of clearance can be modified to suit a
particular application.

CHART DRIVE
SPROCKET ASSEMBLIES
LaVezzi provides a line of custom chart drive sprocket drum
assemblies by combining the sprockets described on pages
20-22 with matching ground aluminum cylinders. The cylinders
are made of 6061 extruded aluminum tubing which is ground for
a smooth writing surface. The chosen sprockets are properly
aligned and bonded to insure perfect alignment between the
two rows of teeth.
If a sprocket is required at
one end only, the other end -B-
can be supplied with an end
cap (see below).
-L-
To order, simply specify the
(UP TO 24")
sprocket type and the length
(‘L’) of the finished assembly.
These end caps can be matched with sprockets #6-32 UNC-2B .13
when a single sprocket drive assembly is desired.

Design Guide For Sprockets . . .
Round or Rectangular Teeth?
Material Selection
Material cost is usually less than 4% of the cost of any sprocket, but the proper choice is very
important to a successful application. A poor selection might result in premature tooth wear,
which could seriously affect performance and cause damage to the perforated material.
The primary factors affecting choice should be weight (inertia), wear resistance and corrosion
resistance.
Where weight or low inertia is a concern, aluminum is an excellent choice. The ability to plate
the surface with hard anodize, chrome or nickel offers greater wear and corrosion resistance.
Titanium is also a light weight material but is more costly to machine.
For improved wear resistance, a heat treatable alloy is preferred, although the high chrome/nickel
alloys have good wear resistance without heat treating. The most economical choice when good
wear resistance and tight tolerances are needed is 416 stainless steel heat treated to a surface
hardness of R ‘C’ 64. The heat treatment process used ensures very little distortion even in thin
cross section designs.

Round Teeth: The normal diameter for round teeth is .004/006 under
the perforation diameter. This is dependent however,
on the accuracy of the perforation spacing and the
amount of ‘wrap’ (angular engagement) of the material
on the sprocket. Consult LaVezzi engineers for specifics.
