The Original Right Angle Drive Proudly Made in the USA
Andantex USA’s objective over the years has always remained the same: to provide innovative, high-quality gearboxes and solutions for use on industrial machinery. The Anglgear right angle drive is an example of our commitment to our customers’ needs and applications.
How Reliable is a Reliability Calculation?
Bearing failures are a major concern in wind turbine main gearboxes. The risk of bearing failure F(t) is calculated from the bearing life L. If this is done for all bearings in a gearbox, then, the bearing subsystem reliability for the required life R(Hreq) = 1–F(Hreq) may be calculated. Methods used for such calculations for wind gearboxes are well established and have been widely used in other fields.
High Strength Polymer Gears Are Possible with Nichiei Company
Lightweight, high strength worm gears for Electric Vehicles, in this case requiring strength of 23 N.m, can be produced using high performance polymers. Nichiei redesigned this part and recommended the right polymer to meet the customer’s need for optimized price/performance, and they can do this for your challenging components too.
