NORDBLOC.1 Single-Reduction Gear Units

March 31, 2021

A hollow socket shaft design for NORDBLOC.1 single-reduction gear units. This shaft design mounts directly to a pump without the need for couplings, reducing installation time and maintenance, greatly extending the operating life of the unit, and reducing revenue loss as a result of unexpected downtime.

 

Couplings have always been a challenge, and they are a common failure point within drive systems. Keeping shafts aligned not only eliminates vibrations but also prevents additional load and wear and tear on drive units. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done as even the most seasoned technicians are required to adjust and shim, sometimes for hours, to get as close to perfect alignment as possible, knowing that even the slightest misalignment will ultimately shorten the lifecycle of the gear unit.

 

The hollow socket shaft option is available for aluminum case sizes SK 371.1 to SK 971.1.
