The new ePM range, which offers a modular concept coupled with improved performance, is now available from Renold Crofts.
This innovative family of mid-range gear units provides different internal gear configurations using the same standard kit and casing (based on modular principles). Each variation is contained within the same standard housing.
Available as bare shaft reduction gears or motorised units, the ePM series promises a 30% increase in performance over existing gear drives and will, in many cases, enable the user to select a smaller gear unit than would have previously been the case. Since 70% of ePM components are standard to the series, availability is fast and reliable, and the lead time for modified drives is substantially reduced.
