That's a great question. I did some digging and I don't see how the Belt tool can be used on pulleys that are perpendicular to each other, as you describe. You could try combining a few 3D sketch segments into a loop and using the sweep tool to create your belt part.
There's no way for the belt part itself to move correct? The belt itself is fixed when its extruded and I havent found a way for the physical belt to move instead of just creating the "appearance" of motion when the idler wheels move.
can I use it in different planes, for example, one pulley is in the right plane and the other one is in a top plane?

@@KrawchukIndustriesLLC I see, I'll try that. Thank you

Good morning nick, that is correct, the belt component itself is just a stationary part.
