When the Queen Mary 2 completed her maiden voyage in January 2004 she manoeuvred smoothly and precisely into Fort Lauderdale Harbour in Florida courtesy of a new podded propulsor system.
The great number of configurations and options available with the Standard Series simplifies the gearbox selection process considerably.
First, the user can choose from one to five stages providing torques from 1.6 to 800kNm and ratios from 3.5:1 to 15,000:1.
Secondly, a wide range of shaft/mounting options include: cylindrical/foot, hollow shaft mounted (for shrink disc mounting), cylindrical/flanged, splined/flange, female splined/flanged and hollow/hanging.
Finally, the list of input options includes: flange mounted electric or hydraulic motors; male input shafts, with supports to accommodate side loads (ie for couplings or pulleys), and opening up of the sun pinion and gearbox, provide considerable application flexibility.
The versatility in design and flexibility in the number of options available mean that the standard series is suitable for use in a wide range of industries.
These include materials handling, water treatment, quarrying, food processing, waste disposal (crushers), marine (winches), steel, mining, agriculture, machine tools and construction.
