Power deflection made easy: The new "NORMA" mitre gear boxes from ALLTEC Antriebstechnik

Pfaff-silberblau subsidiary ALLTEC Antriebstechnik rounds of its product range with mitre gear boxes specially harmonised with the "MERKUR" jacks

Kissing and Stuttgart, 22 September 2008 - At the Motek 2008, ALLTEC Antriebstechnik GmbH, Heilbronn/Germany, a subsidiary of Pfaff-silberblau Hebezeugfabrik GmbH, Kissing/Germany, present their new “NORMA” series of mitre gear boxes. The four sizes, NM0 to NM3, are specially harmonised for power deflection in the proven “MERKUR” worm gear screw jacks. With their matching heights, they make compensation for axial offsets superfluous, and their simplified design brings economic advantages. The NORMA series of mitre gear boxes can be installed in any position to transmit rotation, allowing for an optimal distribution of power. The cyclo-palloid toothing ensures high efficiency and smooth running. The high-quality materials and the modern manufacturing processes of the NORMA guarantee high angular precision and a long lifetime. The latter is further increased by the robustness of the completely encapsulated mitre gear boxes and their standard oil filling. Pfaff-silberblau and ALLTEC Antriebstechnik are sharing Stand 5525 in Hall 5 at the Motek 2008. In addition to the new NORMA mitre gear boxes by ALLTEC Antriebstechnik, the redesigned standard screw jack SHE 1.1 in Type 1 and 2, and the new “CLA” and “CLAT” linear drives by Pfaff-silberblau are on show.
