You may have heard it before, but here's a recap: The Skil 77 - the same model wormdrive that today captures nearly 90% of the wormdrive market - was invented in 1937 by Edward Sterba of the Skilsaw Company. The division between East and West is a classic tale. Whenever I unpacked my saw, the other carpenters raised their eyebrows, or laughed out loud, making remarks like, "Why don't you just grab a chainsaw while you're at it?" Rarely did I see another wormdrive on site when I did, it was on a timber-frame or commercial site. Model 1677M (above right) has a more traditional setup and shares a housing and rear handle with the West Coast favorite, Skil's model 77.īut my inline-centric viewpoint changed in 1980, when I moved to the East Coast and began working mostly for remodelers and as a finish carpenter. Bosch claims that the design gives users the benefits of a wormdrive in a platform closer to what they're accustomed to. Bosch has the industry's newest inline offerings and is attempting to convert sidewinder users with its top-handle model 1678 (above left). Our LogiDrive system combined with a two-stage helical bevel and super premium efficient IE4 synchronous motor considerably reduces your operating costs.Figure 2. Conveyor operations consume a lot of energy and are cost intensive as a result. In intralogistics, products and other goods often have to travel long distances.

Gear Motors for Intralogistics Applications If you buy a gear motor from NORD, you get the most out of your production plants!

NORD parallel shaft gear motors not only have a smooth housing surface, but also operate with minimal efficiency loss. Gear motors for food production machinery must be hygienic and energy efficient because the production process consumes a large amount of energy. NORD gear units run quietly and efficiently and can be operated at adjustable speeds with the aid of a variable speed drive.Įfficient and Easy to Clean Gear Motors for the Food & Beverage Industry Our AC electric gear motors achieve torques of up to 880,000 lb-in and speed ratios of up to 14,340.31:1. NORD Gear Motors: Powerful, Quiet, and Flexible Thanks to our modular design, you can combine the gearboxes with all motors from the NORD product offering. When required, NORD can furnish customizable gear motor solutions with options like brakes, encoders and many more! The UNICASE housing combines high precision, rigidity and strength. The gear units provide high axial and radial load capacities and achieve high drive torques up to 880,000 lb-in. Thanks to NORD's modular design concept, customers also benefit from industry leading delivery times. Our gear motors provide superior performance in addition to high axial and radial load capacity. Millions of NORD gear motors are already in use throughout the world and provide ultimate performance in various industries every day. We work closely with our customers to find the optimum solution for their requirements. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS produces gear motors that can be adapted and customized for almost any application.
