Industrial solutions provider BMG has introduced the latest generation of Hansen I4 industrial gear units, designed for tough mining and conveying applications. The compact, invertible units deliver high torque capacity and operational reliability with minimal maintenance, while standardised core materials across key models improve supply efficiency and reduce lead times without compromising performance in arduous conditions.
Jendamark catalytic converter shrinker relies on SEW-EURODRIVE precisionGqeberha-based Jendamark Automation's catalytic converter shrinking machines – 95% of which are exported to Europe, India and the US – use SEW-EURODRIVE servo-geared units to reshape stainless steel casings to tolerances of 50 microns in 30-second cycles. The technology synchronises two powerful servo motors to within fine tolerances at high speed, while an automatic tool-change system cuts changeover time from two to three hours to 45 seconds, enabling production of about 80 additional parts a shift.
