Flour and Food Mills
Roller mills, sifters, dal plants and conveying lines run long shifts in a dusty, flour-laden atmosphere. Sealed IP55 geared motors and worm units keep product out of the drive and the drive out of the product.

Industries
Different industries, one requirement: torque delivered reliably, shift after shift, somewhere hard on machinery. These are the sectors we specify for most often, and what we specify for them.
Roller mills, sifters, dal plants and conveying lines run long shifts in a dusty, flour-laden atmosphere. Sealed IP55 geared motors and worm units keep product out of the drive and the drive out of the product.
Abrasive media, constant shock load and near-continuous running. Heli-bevel and helical units in cast iron take the shock, and heavy sealing keeps grit out of the bearings.
Crushers, screens, bucket elevators and long belt conveyors, all at high torque with abrasive dust everywhere. Three-stage helical and heli-bevel drives with oversized bearings and shrink-disc mounting.
Filling, capping, labelling and case packing need repeatable low-speed control and clean wash-down surfaces. Compact geared motors on inverter control hold line speed across product changeovers.
Clarifiers, aerators, screw pumps and screens run outdoors and unattended. Right-angle drives with drywell sealing and drives configured for slow, continuous rotation.
Belt, screw and chain conveyors, hoists and feeders across every plant type. Self-locking worm units where a load must hold, helical geared motors where efficiency matters.
Winding, sizing and processing machinery where speed accuracy sets fabric quality. Vector-controlled drives with matched motors hold torque through the low-speed band.
The largest part-load energy saving in most plants. Inverter control on pump and fan sets, coupled through flexible couplings that absorb residual misalignment.
The drive train is the same problem in every plant. Describe the machine and the duty, and we will size it.
