Reduction stages in industrial gearboxes
Spur, helical and ground gears for the reduction stages of gearboxes driving conveyors, mixers, pumps and machines.
- What was needed
- Spur Gear, Helical Gear, Ground Gear
- Requirements
- Efficient power transmission
- Quiet running over long hours
- Gears made to drawing
- Result
- Gear stages that run efficiently and quietly in continuous duty.
Problem
Industrial gearboxes reduce motor speed and increase torque for conveyors, mixers, packaging lines and process machines. They run for long hours and must stay efficient and quiet.
Solution
Spur gears for simple, efficient stages; helical gears for quieter running and higher load capacity; ground gears where accuracy and noise matter most.
- Gears are made to drawing in the required module, material and heat treatment.
- Ground finishing improves accuracy and surface finish for high-speed stages.
Benefits
Why it works
Efficient power transmission
Spur and helical stages run at high efficiency.
Quiet running
Helical and ground gears reduce noise.
Made to drawing
Module, material and treatment to suit the gearbox.
