Lightweight heavy-duty drive systems

The treatment is available for worm, helical inline, and helical bevel gearboxes, smooth-surface motors, distributed frequency inverters and motor starters with an aluminum casing. Nord Drivesystems says users will benefit from the very long lifespan of drive technology with nsd tupH protection, which lowers maintenance requirements and costs and increases plant availability.

Die-cast aluminum casings feature both a very good thermal performance and a lower weight than cast-iron or stainless-steel versions. This facilitates handling of nsd tupH drives. Moreover, they are suitable for easy cleaning with high-pressure steam jets. The drive surface is hardened to become extremely impact-resistant. No coating is applied, so the corrosion-protection cannot be impaired by scratches or chipping. The protection provided by nsd tupH is especially useful in offshore applications and other maritime environments and for food industry applications with frequent use of chemical cleaning agents.
