Design & Development Of Planetary Gearbox For Bar Bending Machine

 Bar bending is extensively required in the construction of buildings and fabricators. Due to human’s inability to bend metals into desired shapes and angles, nowadays we need machines to produce quality products. Each and every work of humans is reduced by a machine. The bar bending machine is used for bending rods, strips, angles, and bars.  Bar Bending Machines are invented with an aim to reduce the manpower, time, and difficulties of the work. But still, the small construction workers prefer to bend the bars manually due to the high cost of machines, difficulty in handling, and Maintenance.

The main components of bar bending machines are the Motor, Gearbox, Extended Shaft, hub, coupling, Belt Pulleys, etc. The gearbox used can be Helical, Planetary, Worm, etc.

To develop the Gearbox for bar bending machines, Top gear Transmissions carried out in-depth research regarding the functioning, objectives, and limitations of current bar bending machines.  To enhance the functioning of the bar bending machine, Top Gear came out with a solution as the use of Planetary Gearbox for bar bending machines due to various advantages of planetary gearbox such as Compactness, High Torque Transmitting Capacity, Efficiency, Less noise, and Maintenance. Our goal was to develop & design a Planetary gearbox series for bar bending machine to bend a bar of any free size with an aim to achieve a high production rate with less manpower & of high desired accuracy.

Depending upon the bar sizes, we calculated the power and torque required to bend the bars of different sizes. The Planetary Gearbox series for bar bending is designed in such a way that, the torque generated by the gearbox is sufficient enough to bend the bar of dia. 12 mm to 48 mm easily. Top Gear designs a special planetary gearbox with a hollow output shaft with a single or double keyway so which the banding wheel of the machine is attached. This arrangement eliminated the need for other connecting parts resulting in a simple construction. This kind of gearbox is offered with flange mounting for direct attachment of the motor to eliminate the belt pulley arrangement. This drive is supplied with long-life synthetic lubricants.

THE KEY FEATURES OF OUR PLANETARY GEARBOX SERIES SUCH AS,

  • Can be offered in multiple input & output configurations.
  • Wide range of reduction ratios and High torque transmission
  • Modular construction
  • Interchangeability of parts
  • Co-axial drives
  • High overhang load capacity
  • Special series available with taper roller bearings to take care of high radial and thrust loads
  • High Efficiency
  • Less Maintenance and Noise

Made us buyers’ first choice for bar banding machines. As a result of which we are serving various leading OEMs involved in the manufacturing of Bar Bending Machines. The development of the planetary gearbox series for this application served as a simple solution for bar bending machines which was very easy to install and simple in construction. This drive increased the efficiency of the bar bending machine and reduced the number of parts thereby reducing the cost. High torque was available due to the use of multiple planets in the planetary drive. This drive resulted in increased production capacity of Equipment Manufacturer.

Today, Top Gear Transmissions is recognized as the leading Manufacturers of Planetary Gearboxes in India offering a wide range of industrial gearboxes.

6 Types Of Industrial Gearboxes And Their Most Typical Uses

Image
Industrial gearboxes are enclosed systems that transmit mechanical energy to the output device. Gearboxes can convert energy into usable formats by modifying speed, torque and other properties. Gearboxes are used in a variety of devices for a variety of applications. These machines can slow down their rotation to increase torque and speed. The following describes the different types of industrial gearboxes and how they are commonly used. Helical gearbox The helical gearbox is a low power consumer and has a small size. This equipment is used for a wide range of industrial applications, but is typically used for heavy duty applications. Helical gearboxes are widely used in plastic, cement, rubber and other heavy industry environments. Coaxial helical inline The coaxial helical gearbox is ideal for heavy duty applications. The coaxial helical inline is known for its quality and efficiency. They are manufactured to high standard specifications to maximize load and transmission ratio. Beve...

Leading Gearbox Manufacturers in India for Travelling Grate

Image
If you are a Travelling Grate Manufacturer and are looking for a reliable supplier of Gearboxes then you are at a right place. This blog will give you a clear insight of reliable manufacturer of gearboxes for travelling grate. Top Gear Transmissions the leading manufacturer of Industrial Gearboxes in India is supplying highly efficient and reliable gearboxes for travelling grate application from last two decades. With more than 20000+ gearboxes installed all gearboxes are running satisfactory.  Efficiency of travelling grate is very important, inefficient travelling grate boilers causes a considerable energy waste. According to statistics there are >500 000 industrial boilers, representing about one-third of the total nationwide coal consumption. Most of these industrial boilers are coal fired travelling grate. The thermal efficiency of many of these boilers is only 60–70% which leads to a remarkable waste in energy. Use of hydraulic drives or inefficient gearboxes is also one ...
