"Our customers now have a fully comprehensive choice of components with the same quick delivery, good technical back-up and high levels of personal service." Ideally suited for both OEM and replacement applications, the compact drives and actuators have been designed for versatility, accuracy and reliable performance with minimum maintenance.
A comprehensive choice of models and options is available to meet individual needs precisely.
With over a million in use throughout the world, the variable speed drive provides infinitely adjustable and accurate speed control, even down to zero (it can be used as a clutch), with constant torque throughout the speed range.
The sealed, factory lubricated unit is simple to install anywhere on the machine, and is easy to operate.
Crown right-angle gear drives are fully enclosed, feature stainless steel shafts and have been precision engineered for smooth, quiet, long-term operation.
Multiple mounting positions simplify machine design considerations.
Likewise, the linear actuators are very easy to install, and feature 90%-plus efficiency and overload protection among their many benefits.
Helland Torq-Tender and H-TLC torque limiters also offer overload protection for coupling-type or chain/belt drive applications.
