Gearboxes improve reliability and efficiency
Because the Yilmaz D series gearboxes are mounted directly onto driven shafts, there is no need for a coupling, chain drive or reducer.
Gearboxes operate safely in explosive environments
Every Yilmaz ATEX gearbox undergoes a special painting cycle, which avoids the problem of electrostatic discharge.
"The gearboxes have a European footprint which means that they interchange directly with most of the leading makes on the market; they are manufactured under ISO9001 conditions, which means that they offer high quality and reliability; and, last but not least, they offer the OEM an extremely price-competitive package, especially when we provide the package of Yilmaz gearboxes with Gamak motors".
Commenting for Yilmaz Reduktor, Chairman Sinasi Yilmaz said that: "This deal is good for both companies".
"We have had contacts with Richard Alan for some time; we have visited the company, looked at its facilities and had intensive discussions with its technical personnel".
"The distribution agreement is the natural result of these contacts".
"We think that the Richard Alan Group is highly qualified and ideally equipped to establish our products in the UK, in the same way that they are widely accepted in Germany, France, Denmark, the Netherlands, and right across the Middle East".
The wealth of engineering facilities available within the Richard Alan Group means that Pumps and Ancillaries, unlike any other Yilmaz distributor in Europe, is being allowed to stock gearboxes in component form.
This provides great flexibility for the user, as it enables gearboxes to be assembled to exact customer specifications at very short notice.
Yilmaz gearboxes are designed as monoblock units, based upon a one-piece housing, which offers advantages as regards, rigidity, gear strength, operating noise levels and oil integrity.
All bearings within the gearboxes are supported by the housing itself and not by cover plates, and all axes are machined at the same mounting plate, which gives high precision on all axis with very tight tolerances.
The monoblock design delivers improved bearing and gear life and the facility for multistage units and overhung loads.
The Pumps and Ancillaries division of Richard Alan will hold a wide range of stock.
It will also supply IEC frame bespoke motors for the gearboxes, together with accessories such as variable speed drives and brakes.
