Just 48 hours from a gearbox

A David Brown Engineering product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Apr 10, 2006

Gearboxes available off the shelf in the UK following a deal struck with distributor that should reduce delivery times to less than 48 hours.

Series G gearboxes from David Brown are available off the shelf in the UK following a deal struck with distributor RMB Group.

The ex-stock range covers key ratios in five sizes offering output torque capacity up to 35kNm.

RMB Group's experience of industrial gearbox repair, breakdown engineering machining and fabrication also gives it the necessary experience to turn around fabricated stools and bed plate adaptors quickly.

The result for many heavy industrial applications is a Series G drop-in replacement that can be delivered in 24 to 48 hours.

At a time when users are facing increases in energy costs, upgrades to modern, highly efficient gearboxes look attractive.

Series G's availability overcomes the previous stumbling block of expensive downtimes.

"This is a real win-win situation for end-users", said Chris Morrell, Sales Director, Europe, Standard Products at David Brown.

"In the event of gearbox failure, they not only get a new unit faster than ever, they also get one that is more efficient than ever".

"But apart from an emergency situation we expect the consequences of this deal to make a big impact on the industry".

RMB Group's relationship with David Brown goes back 15 years and it is the fastest growing David Brown distributor in the UK.

Product Manager Ron Tooth said: "Our appreciation of heavy industrial applications makes us a perfect fit to distribute Series G".

"We can see significant advantages for the end-user in the fast swap outs that the product plus our know-how make possible".

The Series G helical parallel shaft and bevel helical right angle drive gear units meet the requirements of demanding applications in the medium and heavy-duty sector of the power transmission market.

Modular design technology has reduced manufactured part count to increase availability.

The high specification sealing system ensures increased oil tightness and optimum seal life.

The horizontal split case design makes maintenance easier.

A large diameter output shaft and bearings increase overhung load capacity.

Larger sizes up to 130kNm are available to order.
