The HAFLEX is a split torque reducer usually set up with 2 pinions but can also comprise of 4 pinions, that are balanced under load to drive the main wheel with optimal distribution of mechanical force.
There are two installation possibilities.
- Either floor mounted, as a traditional gearbox would be, or
- Floating (shaft mounted). This version is used more often as foundation connections are easier to install and eliminates alignment and shimming operations.
The HAFLEX enables transmission of high torque at low speed and comes in a wide range of sizes and reduction ratios.
The HAFLEX is adapted to numerous applications. In the steel industry it is used on converters, sinter lines and sinter breakers for example. It is also used in the sugar industry on horizontal diffusers, mixers, sugar cane mills and also in mining and excavation activities such as bucket wheels and bucket dredgers. The HAFLEX is used extensively by German engineering companies in many other industrial sectors and applications all over the world.
