A formulation that predicts a lateral belt motion in a two-cylindrical roller system with a misalignment was proposed. The formulation was established based on the principle that a lateral belt motion stays in equilibrium where the stream of a belt becomes perpendicular to the axis of the downstream, which we clarified in the previous study, and the misalignment angle. We also observed that, in a two-cylindrical roller system, a mechanism that the effect of alignment is equally distributed between the tension and slack sides of the belt during the belt begins to move and travels halfway around the system exists. The mechanism also was considered in proposed formulation. The results using the formulation proposed here are in good agreement with the experimental results.
