Drive technology

The drive is the most important component of a pouring ladle – for precise and effi cient casting. With our highly effi cient planetary gear units from the RSD and PG series we can manually cast ladle volumes of up to 150 tons of cast iron by means of back gears. Through the use of double-walled planet carriers and tempered ring gears we can achieve torque values that ensure a long service life and a less strenuous operation.

Our modular system “I-Drive” allows for a combination of each gear unit with a motor drive. By means of our multiple fi nger coupling you can optionally operate your pouring ladle with a manual or a motor drive. Besides our gear unit series SG, PG and RSD we can manufacture, repair and maintain all types of gear units.

On our test stand for gear units all gear units are tested and documented according to DIN EN 1247. As your supplier we only use original components, so we can ensure you a permanent maximum quality and safety.

Our gear unit series RSD is a consistent further development of existing gear units on the market. Some weak spots were analyzed and eliminated by our new development with the RSD gear unit.

The gear unit features an outstanding effi ciency, a modular design and a versatility without compromise. Double-walled planet carriers, specially tempered ring gears and double bearings will provide you with a tool that is unique on the market.

Our high-performance gear unit RSD 180 V takes our tried and tested reliable gear unit series to a new dimension. This gear unit enables us to operate large ladles or holding vessels of up to 60t without a back gear.

We can proudly say that our newly developed gear unit series has created a new benchmark in all foundries and steelworks since 2005. That enables us to grant you up to 5 years warranty on our product RSD.
