Our extra-slim parallel shaft helical gear motors are the perfect solution when space is limited. The many different sizes and designs ensure that the gear motors can be used in a wide variety of applications even under the most unfavourable conditions. SEW-Eurodrive parallel shaft helical gear motors are typically used in conveyor and material processing applications. You can choose from foot-mounted, flange-mounted or shaft-mounted options. Reduced backlash parallel shaft helical gear units are also available on request for precise positioning tasks.

Available Versions:

• Foot-mounted or flange-mounted
• B5 or B14 flange-mounted
• Solid or hollow shaft
• Hollow shaft with keyed connection, shrink disc, splined hollow shaft or TorqLOC®

Helical-bevel gear units from SEW-Eurodrive provide a high degree of efficiency of over 96% in both torque directions and at all input speeds. With performance designed to last – high-endurance gearing enables high-torque and wear-free operation. With our remarkably efficient helical-bevel gear motors, you have energy-saving angular gear drives at your fingertips. As they also have a long maintenance-free service life, they can be used in every application with AC asynchronous motors, asynchronous and synchronous servomotors. A reduced backlash version is available for precise positioning tasks.

Available versions:



• Foot-mounted or flange-mounted
• B5 or B14 flange-mounted
• Solid or hollow shaft
• Hollow shaft with keyed connection, shrink disc, splined hollow shaft or TorqLOC®

SEW-Eurodrive helical-worm gear units are helical/helical-worm combinations, so they are more efficient than normal helical-worm gear units. Due to their outstanding efficiency, these drives can be used in every industrial sector and tailored to individual torque and speed requirements. The reduction ratios afforded by the helical-worm gear stage and the low noise levels during operation make these gear motors ideal low-cost solutions for simple applications.

Available Versions

• Foot-mounted or flange-mounted
• B5 or B14 flange-mounted
• Solid or hollow shaft
• Hollow shaft with keyed connection, shrink disc, splined hollow shaft or TorqLOC®

Spiroplan® gear motors are robust right-angle gear motors with Spiroplan® gearing. They have three main differences from the helical-worm gear units: the material combination of the steel-on-steel gearing, the special tooth meshing relationships and the aluminium housing. These features make Spiroplan® gear motors very quiet, wear-free and lightweight.

The particularly short design and the aluminium housing make for very compact and lightweight drive solutions. The wear-free gearing and the life-long lubrication facilitate long periods of maintenance-free operation. As the oil fill is independent of the mounting position, Spiroplan® gear motors can be installed in any mounting position without altering the quantity of oil. It has identical hole spacing in the foot and face as well as the equal shaft height to both provides you with diverse mounting options.

Available Versions

• Foot-mounted or flange-mounted
• B5 or B14 flange-mounted
• Solid or hollow shaft

Suitable for simple, variable-speed applications up to 45 kW (60hp). Combining Varibloc® and Varimot® variable speed gear units with reduction gear units of all designs in the SEW-Eurodrive modular concept creates variable speed drives with a low-output speed and high-output torque. Combining variable speed gear motors with helical, parallel shaft helical, helical-bevel and helical-worm gear units has proven effective at low speeds.

Variable speed gear units are available with DRS and DRE motors. This means they comply with European and most international efficiency requirements.

Benefits

• Increased starting torque
• Large permitted overhung loads of the reduction gear units
• Large number of finely spaced gear ratios of the reduction gear unit, depending on size
• Choice of manual or remote speed control
• Intuitive operation

The foot and flange-mounted versions can also be used to power machines without a reduction gear unit. Speed can be adjusted mechanically, e.g. with a hand-wheel, or electromechanically using a servo motor.

Helical Shaft Mounted Speed Reducer (HSM) features patented keyless, steel Taper-Grip® bushing for easy mounting as well as a traditional keyed hub option. The key features of HSM are:

• Higher ratings with a 25° pressure angle and wider gear tooth face for maximum torque
• Keyless shaft connection with Taper-Grip® bushing for easy installation and removal, simple replacement
• Heavy-duty roller bearings for maximum strength and extended life
• Metric and AGMA standard bore sizes in both bushed and through-bore simplify specification and retrofit
• CEMA standard screw conveyor options
• Optional Taconite sealing systems for effective protection in specialised applications and extended operation
• Drop-in replacement
• Flexible motor mounting capabilities
• Backstops with centrifugal lift-off sprags to maximise reliability

Cyclo’s unique epicycloidal design has advantages superior to speed reducers that use common involute tooth gears. Cyclo components operate in compression, not in shear.

Unlike gear teeth with limited contact points, a Cyclo has two-thirds of its reduction components in contact at all times. This design enables Cyclo speed reducers and gear motors to withstand shock loads exceeding 500% of their ratings, and provide exceptional performance, reliability and long life in the most severe applications.

Features

• Premier in-line drives as both a reducer and gear motor
• Quiet, efficient and reliable operation with high torque density and compact sizes
• Interchangeable cast iron housings in foot, flanged or face mount configurations
• Available free-shaft, quill hollow shaft, C-face adaptors, shovel base, and top-mount inputs
• Minimal vibration, low noise, low backlash and extended operational life
• The best product warranty with 24 months backs up the superb Cyclo product reputation

Bonfiglioli worm gear motor is a milestone for the industry worldwide. They succeeded in combining uncompromising quality with state-of-the-art technology and renowned price effectiveness.

Absolute flexibility is given by the wide choice of several mounting options, shaft configurations and motor interface, all offered as standard. The helical-worm and the double-worm version, with or without the torque limiter, also add up, creating a highly versatile drive system.

Top torque density, product variety, extremely wide speed choice, great compactness and price effectiveness make the C series the unparalleled line of helical gear motors and speed reducers.

CBS has a range of electric motors from 0.37kw to 630kw in 2, 4, 6 and 8 pole motors. All motors have different ratings for the environment they are being used in from a standard motor or a motor being used in a wash down area where it needs to be waterproof right through to a large motor being used in a mine or quarry where they have to have special sealing arrangements and specialised certifications. We can supply all possible certifications but it is best to talk to us regarding your usage.
