New range of geared motors is available off-the-shelf
A COMPLETE RANGE OF ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS
Renold Gears has launched a new range of geared motors, with reduction gear and geared motor options, which is available off-the-shelf and is suitable for most industrial applications
T
he new range includes the R Series inline helical, the K Series bevel
helical and the S Series helical worm gear units. They have been designed with interchangeable Euro dimensions and accept standard IEC motors for fast and easy replacement. All the geared motor units in the new range are designed with an oil tight gear head to keep motor replacement free from oil spills and feature cast iron cases with an epoxy- polyester, powder-coated finish for strength and durability. The K Series bevel helical gear
units are suitable for power ratings up to 160kW, with ratios up to 160:1 in three stages, and 35,000:1 in combined form. The R Series inline

helical gear units are suitable for power ratings up to 160kW, with ratios up to 58:1 in two stages, and 16,200:1 in combined form. The S Series helical worm gear units are suitable for power ratings up to 45kW, with ratios up to 250:1 in two stages, and 60,000:1 in combined form. Output torque is up to 33,000Nm on the K Series bevel helical range, up to 20,000Nm on the R Series inline helical range, and up to 10,000Nm on the S Series helical worm gear range, providing low cost per Nm.

Renold Gears’ ability to design and manufacture complete engineered solutions, from custom gear units to complete drive packages, provides end users and OEMs with non-standard drive technology to meet their exact requirements. This is important in many situations, such as when obsolete industrial gear units need to be replaced, when OEMs need an innovative solution in cases where standard designs fail to meet their required specifications, or for critical applications, where custom or standard design gearboxes are engineered to meet exacting life requirements or to suit highly demanding operating conditions. Renold Gears is able to provide full materials traceability, with the highest specification quality system requirements, such as those required by the nuclear, defence and marine industries. Renold Gears is able to replicate the external
dimensions and design of the old unit. This ensures that the new gearbox is a perfect drop-in replacement with no modifications required. This also cuts downtime, retrofitting costs and often enables an upgrade of the internal gears, made possible with improved gearing design, manufacturing techniques and modern bearings. Additionally, Renold Gears’ package drives are complete
