A belt drive system and toothed idler sprocket having an accurate pitch is invaluable in significantly reducing noise. The toothed idler sprocket having a pitch sufficient to cause proper engagement between a belt and the sprocket at a minimal belt wrap angle is ideal for smooth functioning.

Idler sprocket obtains proper chain tension when neither driving nor driven shaft is adjustable, and takes up slack chain developed through normal chain wear

It guides chain around an obstruction at the same time preventing whipping action in the slack span of chain transmitting an uneven load

A good idler sprocket brings about greater chain wrap around a small sprocket, particularly if it is the lower sprocket in a vertical drive and it provides for reversed direction of rotation of a sprocket in contact with the outside of the chain

Idler sprockets should not rotate at greater speeds than are allowable for drive sprockets of the same size. They should be mounted in contact with the slack span of chain.

It is advisable that idler sprockets have at least three teeth in mesh with the chain. Inside mounted idlers usually account for quieter operation, especially if centers are short and speed is moderately high.
