conveyer belt speed control Conveyor belt systems that allow for custom speed control help plants cut energy costs, especially for industrial material handling and processing needs.
worm gear efficiency While worm gears can have low efficiency and wear quicker than some other gears, there are applications where they are a practical solution.
worm gear applications Applications for worm gears range from elevator lifts to conveyer systems. Here are four common worm gear applications and the benefits of the worm gear design.
worm gear vs bevel gear The decision of worm gear vs. bevel gear comes down to efficiency. While worm gears are inexpensive to manufacture and purchase, bevel gears are a more efficient investment.
gear ratio Gear ratio is the measurement of speed of two or more interlocking gears and how those speeds relate to each other. High gear ratios mean increased torque.
iec standards for motors Energy efficiency of electrical machinery can be critical to a company's bottom line. The IEC 60034 standards for motors affect nearly every industry.
Frequency inverter reducers are a complete package solution with a gearbox, motor and Variable Frequency Drive (or VFD) that are specifically paired together in order to create the best solution. When the relationship between the motor, gearbox and VFD are all considered upfront, there is an opportunity to create an optimized, cost effective and efficient system.
Read full article...A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is an electronic means of controlling motor operation. VFD's have the ability to control the speed and direction of a motor as well as how it starts and stops. A VFD limits the inrush (starting current) which is advantageous because it is much easier on the motor.

Some common types of screw conveyors include horizontal/inclined shafted screw conveyors (the most common type of screw conveyor used for bulk material handling), shaftless screw conveyors (typically used with sticky, high moisture and viscous loads), screw feeders and live bottom conveyors (used to move various types of loads at a constant and controlled speed and usually incorporate more than one gearbox) and vertical screw conveyors (used to move dry or semi-fluid loads at very steep inclines).
