Nord Drivesystems will be on stand D526 at Drives & Controls 2016 showing its latest series of slim two-stage helical bevel gearboxes and, in particular, a new smaller unit for output torques up to 50Nm. The highly efficient helical bevel type units are now available and complement the line-up of worm gearboxes that are already available for small powers.
Thanks to the Unicase gear housing and large dimensioned bearings, the gear units are very robust and can withstand high radial or axial loads acting on the output shaft. The new units are available for gear ratios from 3.58 to 61.88. They add a new size to the existing series that now comprises six sizes with output torques up to 660Nm.
Nord supplies the two-stage helical bevel gearboxes with hollow and solid shafts, single or double shafts, for foot or flange mounting, and in open or enclosed designs. All versions feature a very high power density, ensuring robust reliability and easy handling. Nord custom-configures motors, drive electronics, accessories, gaskets and lubricants to suit the demands of all industries. One of the options, for instance, is the heavy-duty corrosion-protection surface treatment nsd tupH for the aluminium housings, making them suitable for wash down applications.
Nord Drivesystems will be also be showcasing a large fully functional conveyor technology demonstration rig that brings together a selection of its geared motors and decentralised frequency inverters and starters that are well proven for materials handling applications in packaging machinery and logistics industries such as baggage handling.
Further decentralised capability will be demonstrate through two smart control offerings for synchronous and asynchronous motors utilising SK 200E series frequency inverters complete with PLC functionality.
