When we had a Reeves Motodrive come in to our Preston office for a routine overhaul, our customer asked us to give it a thorough run through to make sure that it went back in perfect condition.
The variable speed pulleys had given many years of trouble-free service, but required replacing. The same goes for the variable speed belt; it was still running exceptionally well, but the demands of the application meant that it would also have to be replaced. Then we hit a hurdle…
The original tachometer was no longer working properly, and would require replacement. This presented something of a problem, as they were no longer available from the factory and had no readily-available alternative. Having our own fabrication facilities on hand has never been more opportune, as we were able to adapt a standard tachometer for retrofitting to our specific Reeves application. Not only that, the new tacho has more functionality.
All Torque Transmissions is never shy in trying to find solutions to the power transmission problems that present themselves all the time. If it is a gearbox that is no longer available, a superseded drive or even specialty items such as imperial electric motors, our product knowledge and workshop capability combine to ensure lead times (and downtime) are kept short.
