Bulk material handling applications, such as conveyors and bucket elevators, require robust drives that can handle high-torque loads. Hansen gear reducers have made a name for themselves in the mining and material handling industries, thanks to their superior engineering and flexibility, which allows them to provide custom solutions for tricky applications.
Here’s a look at some of the features a Hansen gear reducer brings to the table for material handling applications:
Flexible options. Hansen’s ability to carefully match each drive to the application results in reliability even under the most severe conditions.
Continuous oil circulation. By perpetually cycling oil through the bearings, Hansen drives achieve a long life span, with minimal problems.
Maintenance-friendly design. Essential service elements such as inspection covers, instrumentation, breathers, and drainage and filling plugs are carefully positioned for easy monitoring and service.
Superior support. All Hansen gear reducers come with in-depth engineering support and thorough documentation, allowing on-site technicians to optimize performance and life span.
The challenges inherent in bulk material handling require powerful solutions. Hansen gear reducers have proven their ability to meet the tough demands of even the most rigorous applications.
