Planetary Gearbox

Offering an option of being installed horizontally or vertically, the Planetary gearbox has proven its worth over many years of application under the harshest of operating conditions. At Universal Associates, we offer extremely compact premium drive solutions that meet the highest requirements of continuous operation, assuring you of maximum operational reliability even under irregular loading conditions.

With passage of time, our product portfolio has consistently evolved and expanded with different kinds of products and solutions. Our Planetary gear units have been used as drives in roller presses and rolling mills.

Key Highlights:

• The low weight of our Planetary gearboxes reduces the load on gear units and machines.
• The high radial and axial additional forces exerted by universal-joint shafts and floating-roller acceleration are absorbed by the standard bearing system.
• The gearboxes offer wide variety due to various output shafts, conformity to different motor standards, application-specific auxiliary equipment and load-sharing options. This permits a large number of possible applications to be catered for.
• Nominal transition ranges from i = 25 to 4,000

Key Applications:

• The harsh conditions include uneven loads, extreme axial and radial forces, high dust generation, the grinding of iron ore, limestone and clinker. In such conditions, the High-pressure rolling mills and rotary kilns prove to be optimal solutions for the drive systems, owing to the fact that the grinding process must be guaranteed energy-efficient and reliable, in the same breath.
• Furthermore, the vertical mills such as roller grinding, ball-and-ring, and roller mills are majorly used for grinding limestone, clinker, slag, lime, gypsum, and ores for the cement industry, and coal in the coal preparation for thermal power plants.
• The pulverizing of mineral raw materials is an extraordinarily energy-consuming process. To make processes economically efficient, the power transmission equipment to be used must be adapted to the specific requirements of the preparation process.
• The bevel planetary gearbox offers high flexibility with constant product quality for every kind of coal mill. Vertical Mill gear units are very reliable components due to the special tooth geometry, bearing selection and rigid housings.
