Flexible gear unit solutions for tough requirements

Drive solutions for general industrial processes such as conveying and lifting can usually be achieved with standard gear units and gearmotors. However, there are also applications that require these standard gear units to be modified so they fit perfectly.

Frequently, the on-site circumstances are so specific that special gear units are required to be produced in a single-unit batch. We are able to build these special constructions in our own facilities thanks to our industrial expertise and years of experience. We work in close cooperation with our customers and in association with our global production plants.

For example, we manufacture for the steel industry, including shiftable hoist drives for ladle cranes and customer-specific gear units for leveling machines, reels and pinions for rolling mills. With our customized gear units for new systems and "drop-in" gear units for updating systems, we can help many other industry sectors and applications achieve smooth operations. All this with a high degree of value creation for ourselves, for example in the manufacture of gearing components and shafts or case hardening, etc. As a result, we are always able to ensure the highest level of quality and reliability for our customers.

Real world examples of applications

Extreme temperatures and high dust concentrations in the air, hot liquid metal and open flames – conditions don't get much tougher than that in industry. That's not the only challenge in a steel works, however. Demanding applications in this situation require particularly robust and complex drive solutions.
