When an industrial machine breaks down it means most manufacturers and factories will have to cut back on production until it can be repaired or it can be replaced. Time is of the essence when industrial and commercial machines experience a drive train or electric power transmission malfunction. When these machines are finally repaired these companies are going to want to make sure the replacement parts used are from reputable manufacturers that supply quality parts for items such as motors, gear units, controllers etc.., because of this many machines use parts, such as these from SEW Eurodrive. This company, as well as others specializes in drive parts that are of exceptional quality and that fit seamlessly and integrate well. Your qualified repair technician or company will advise you on what part will fit in your transmission or motor, as well as if you need a particular brand due to the requirements of your machine. Many parts are made to interconnect and integrate into many systems, but many are made to work only with specific brands or types of equipment.

The parts that are used in industrial machinery have to be high quality to maintain their machines performance and ensure the least amount of breakdowns in the future. Choosing companies that specialize in drive performance parts and have a proven record of reliability are a number one concern for parts replacement. Businesses that employ and run industrial machines have to have their machines in top shape. That means having a repair company that knows all aspects of electric power transmissions. As well as needing a company that has the reputation for quality customer service and having a staff that goes out of their way if a problem evolves that needs a quick resolution, with superior technical engineering support and all the new technology available. Many reputable parts supply companies have a solid reputation and strive for excellence in both the quality of the parts supplied as well as in their ability to supply support to all their customers.

When one talks of drive technology, they are usually referring to an array of parts that are used to make up what some call the drive train. These parts usually consist of gear motors, gears- usually heavy duty gears for industrial uses, electronics, and software and automation systems. A gear motor is the electric engine that is used to generate energy. A gear is a wheel that utilizes outer teeth used to generate speed or change direction. Other parts that are utilized in power transmissions might be right angle worm speed reducers which usually come in sizes of 213 to 232 or ratios up to 100:1, servo planetary gear reducers which are available in an IP65 rating and cycloidal speed reducers that offer high shock load capacity and are available in 2 backlash ratings. At times there might be a need for concentric helical speed reducers, these come with a 3 year warranty and any backlash is less than 20 arc minutes.
