The different types, the numerous reduction ratios and the possible combinations with different electric motors allow Bonfiglioli gearboxes to adapt to the specific automation needs of many industrial sectors. The possibility of modulating the most suitable solution for one's application is in fact essential for optimizing the performance of one's machinery or plant. Naturally, the selection process requires a careful analysis of some technical variables which mainly depend on the application context and the type of automation required.
Main selection criteria
Given the flexibility of the range of Bonfiglioli reducers, the choice of the most suitable product presupposes the calculation and evaluation of key technical factors to adapt the required output torque and the reduction ratio of the application to the actual operating conditions of the reducer. It is the so-called service factor that quantifies the severity of the service to which the gear reducer is subjected, based on the type of load of the driven machine and any overloads, the duration of hourly and daily operation and the starting frequency per hour which are connected to the specific application. Other variables equally connected to the application sector of interest influence the final choice: among others, the ambient temperature, the safety coefficient and, last but not least, the size of the reducer.
Types of Bonfiglioli gearboxes
The range of Bonfiglioli gearboxes represents a point of reference in the power transmission sector thanks to the diversification and excellent quality of the many product series. In fact, the complete catalog includes numerous series belonging to the most widespread and requested types in the industrial market:
- worm gearboxes
- coaxial reducersi
- bevel helical gearboxes
- parallel shaft gearboxes
- planetary gearboxes
- pendulum gearboxes
United by high standards of quality and efficiency, Bonfiglioli gearboxes differ not only in the type of assembly, but also in the properties that make them more or less compatible with specific automation requirements. Starting from the typical requirements of any industrial application, each product series is characterized and distinguished by torque range and reduction ratios, transmissible mechanical power, energy efficiency, low noise, backlash level, positioning accuracy, sturdiness, mounting space, engines and engine options.
As Bonfiglioli's official distributor and BEST partner, Technobi has the entire range of gearboxes. This, supported by an always large availability in stock, allows our company to cover the many and most varied customer requests.
