Product

A shaft mount gear drive is a type of gear mechanism designed to be directly mounted onto a rotating shaft. This allows for efficient power transmission between the shaft and the driven equipment. This configuration is typically used to transfer power between shafts aligned in the same direction without additional mounting brackets or bases.

Advantages:

Space Efficiency: Eliminates the need for additional mounting components, allowing for a more compact and streamlined design.
Ease of Installation: Simplifies the installation process by mounting directly onto the shaft, reducing the need for complex alignment.
Durability: Designed to handle high loads and harsh conditions, making it suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications.
Maintenance: Often features designs that facilitate easier maintenance and replacement of components.

Typical Applications:

Conveyor Systems: Used to drive conveyor belts where space and alignment are critical.
Industrial Machinery: Common in various types of machinery that require direct shaft mounting.
Material Handling: Suitable for equipment that needs to handle heavy loads with minimal space.

Built for continuous rough-duty, these are the easiest and quickest shaft-mounted drives to install and remove.
