Bogiflex

BOGIFLEX is a floating, split torque, shaft mounted gearbox with a direct connection to a machine shaft (no coupling). The reaction forces are transmitted through a torsion bar assembly to the foundations.

The Bogiflex gearbox is self-aligning, with the advantage of having a perfect gear meshing between pinion and wheel whatever the deformation of the shaft of the driven machine.

Perfectly adapted to transmissions with very high torque at low speeds, it perfectly meets the high requirements of strategic machines in the steel, cement and sugar industires as well as other special applications.

The Bogiflex gearbox is designed in assembled, independent modules. High reduction ratios can be achieved with a limited number of reduction stages and modular components, significantly increase the reliability and thus the machine service rate.

• 12 different sizes: designed as a central drive on the machine shaft or in lateral configuration on gear of large diameter. Special studies are undertaken to adapt it to the constraints and specific requirements of our customers
• Wide torque range: 15 000 kNm
• Reduction ratio: up to 10 000
• Weight up to 50 tons

ADVANTAGES

• The self-aligning property of gears allows independent meshing conditions from the deformations and movements of the driven machine, which ensures a perfect distribution of the contact pressure along the gear teeth.
• The Bogiflex gearbox is suitable for applications generating very high loads, and is suitable for impact applications.

Many options and adaptations can be applied to the Bogiflex gearbox, such as mechanical safety devices, measuring instrumentation. Bogiflex gearbox design facilitates predictive maintenance.
