Abstract: In a process for manufacturing toothed belts of any length, a tubular sleeve comprising a layer of cords (1) and at least a layer of elastomeric material (2) is preformed in an autoclave without being vulcanized so as to produce, on the inner surface thereof, a plurality of grooves (5) spaced apart from one another according to a predetermined toothing pitch (P). The sleeve is helically cut to obtain a continuous strip (7) to be subsequently wrapped over two wrapping drums (8, 9) suitably spaced apart from each other depending on the circumferential extension to be given to the belt. The obtained annular element (10), when the wrapping has been completed, is trued up by means of the provided grooves, between a molding matrix (11) and opposite mould (12) and is submitted to a pressing step and simultaneous cross-linking of the elastomeric material (2) by closing said elastomeric material between the molding matrix (11) and opposite mold (12) according to stages in succession.
