The distinctive feature of mechanical variators lies in their ability to operate up to the limit of permitted torque while avoiding slippage of the drive mechanism that would otherwise dramatically reduce variator life. When selecting Bonfiglioli variators (known as the ‘V̵
All Torque Transmissions distributes a range of quality gas springs, to exacting standards. Made in Australia, our gas springs have the following features: Controlled movement: The rate of motion of the spring is controlled by using special engineering techniques to slow or dampen t
The Dodge Para-Flex coupling range of tyre couplings offer fantastic torque transmission qualities, with high misalignment capabilities (4° angular, 1/8″ parallel and 5/16″ end float) and excellent vibration dampening. Here is the specification that Dodge makes the Para-Fl
In gearboxes, maintenance scheduling revolves around ensuring lubrication quality and levels are maintained. For Bonfiglioli’s A series of helical-bevel gearboxes, the oil type and running temperature both play a significant part in determining oil change intervals. The table be
Reeves Vari-Speed transmissions are an ancient, somewhat obsolete yet still very effective speed reducer that is very good at regulating speed. Page Engineering was the original agent for Reeves Vari-Speed reducers, manufacturing under license in Australia from 1946 to 1960, when the
Although no longer with us, Reduspeed geared motors were a high quality, Australian made unit that deserves to be remembered. Reduspeed History Reduspeed geared motors commenced production in 1952, a brand of Gearmotor Pty. Ltd. The design brief given to the engineering staff called
For many years, Flender marketed the Cavex series of worm gearboxes, both in Australia and throughout the world. Cavex Design Philospohy Flender developed the Cavex worm gearbox for heavy duty environments. Primarily, this was achieved by utilising specialist design parameters with t
Australia boasts one of the single largest exploited Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) deposits in the world; with the North West Shelf Venture, as well as some significant deposits still in development such as Gorgon. These large deposits and the financial resources thus far invested to e
Gibson Battle & Company was a specialist power transmission business, which represented some of the worlds largest heavy duty gearbox manufacturers, before ceasing business in the early 2000s. Formed in Sydney in the late 19th century when John William Gibson joined forces with Ar
