Gearboxes Offer Performance Improvements for Mine Use
Gear and drive specialist David Brown says
its CX series gearboxes are designed to oper-ate at extremely high defined levels of
torque, speed, power and thermal ratings,
exceeding competitor performance and rep-resenting a new, unique best-in-class
model. According to the company, the
advanced technologies designed into the CX
series provide key product solutions for min-ing operations, including up to four times
longer bearing life; up to 20% greater ther-mal capacity, reducing the need for ancillary
cooling equipment; precision gear tooth pro-files that reduce noise and maximize power
transfer; an optimized, cast housing; and a
unique flippable design with modular
mounting options. Customers also benefit
from the company’s new three-year extend-ed warranty package, which is available for
any gearbox brand and model—even those
of competitors—and provides access to
David Brown’s global network of service and
repair centers. The extended warranty also
covers new installations of gearboxes
designed and manufactured by David
Brown; and includes the option to install a
remote conditioning monitoring system
(CMaS) that gathers critical information
while the gearbox is in operation, warding
off the risk of unexpected failure.
