These stainless steels are highly resistant to steam, humidity, food acids, and corrosive and aggressive cleaning agents and disinfectants, making them ideal for use in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries.
Available Stainless Steel Gear Unit Series.
RES… Stainless Steel Gear Unit series
The RES.. series comprises two-stage and three-stage helical gear units.
KES… Stainless Steel Gear Unit series
The KES.. series consists of three-stage helical-bevel gear units
WES… Stainless Steel Gear Unit series
The WES.. series is made up of two-stage and three-stage SPIROPLAN® right-angle gear units.
Thanks to a total of eight sizes, these series cover maximum permitted output torques (Mamax) from 80 to 820 Nm. When used in stainless steel gearmotors, the stainless steel gear units in the RES.., KES.., and WES.. series are combined with an asynchronous stainless steel motor. They are optimized for efficiency, durable, maintenance-friendly, hygienic, and easy to clean. The PSH.. planetary gear units are available in five sizes up to an output torque of 100 Nm. When combined with stainless steel servomotors, they are particularly suitable for dynamic processes and precise positioning.
