Large distances often have to be spanned when extracting materials and removing goods. Belt conveyors are the best drive solution in this situation due to their durability and efficiency. Take advantage of our know-how as an industry leader.
Powerful drive solution with industrial gear units for belt conveyors
The rising global demand for raw materials is also increasing demand for the faster extraction and processing of these materials. This means that operators of conveyor systems are faced with new challenges: to ensure efficient extraction, downstream processing and disposal, the process engineering systems must be able to transport the materials quickly. Belt conveyors play an important role in this context: they transport raw materials as well as other goods across great distances. Combined with a strong drive, to overcome any friction force that arises, they ensure the right acceleration in the conveying process.
It means that all the system components must be able to deal with the harsh operating conditions. The fantastic reliability and rapid availability of the components reduces idling times to a minimum and increases the operating life.
Tailored to belt conveyors: SEW-EURODRIVE industrial gear unit solution
In practice, belt conveyors differ considerably with respect to operating hours: some conveying systems only operate sporadically, while others run around the clock. This creates additional challenges with regard to reliability and availability. Our robust drive solutions impressively meet these demanding requirements.
As a leading manufacturer of industrial gear units we know your industry and the associated processes. We make sure that you have the right drive technology for your conveying systems. Our high-torque industrial gear units impress in every environment, even under difficult conditions. Our modular principle, with its robust housing concept, provides the optimal solution even for high ambient temperatures.
