</figure></div></div> <div class="entry-content entry clearfix"> <p>Packing a compact design, along with high torque and low-speed outputs, the new SEW PPK and SEW P2.e planetary gear units from SEW-EURODRIVE offer new capabilities in continuous heavy duty applications where space is at a premium.</p> <p>Speaking directly to SEW-EURODRIVE’s ‘close the loop’ strategy, the arrival of the SEW PPK and SEW P2.e planetary gear opens up a whole new world of possibilities, particularly in heavy duty, challenging operating conditions with high torque and low speed requirements.</p> <p>Typical applications in the mining industry include crushers, apron feeders, clarifiers and thickeners.

While most planetary gearboxes have a three-stage design only, the SEW P2.e can also be supplied in a two-stage model.

06:39:58","url":"https:\/\/miningbusinessafrica.co.za\/sew-eurodrive-planetary-gear-units-for-high-torque-requirements\/","headline":"SEW-EURODRIVE planetary gear units for high torque requirements","name":"SEW-EURODRIVE planetary gear units for high torque requirements","articleBody":"Packing a compact design, along with high torque and low-speed outputs, the new SEW PPK and SEW P2.e planetary gear units from SEW-EURODRIVE offer new capabilities in continuous heavy duty applications where space is at a premium.\r\n\r\nSpeaking directly to SEW-EURODRIVE\u2019s \u2018close the loop\u2019 strategy, the arrival of the SEW PPK and SEW P2.e planetary gear opens up a whole new world of possibilities, particularly in heavy duty, challenging operating conditions with high torque and low speed requirements.\r\n\r\nTypical applications in the mining industry include crushers, apron feeders, clarifiers and thickeners. Other industrial applications range from screw presses and slewing gears to wood panel shredders, ring pan mixers and batch plants, amongst others.\r\n<h5><strong>Torque range<\/strong><\/h5>\r\nThe SEW PPK planetary gear units complement SEW-EURODRIVE\u2019s product line in the torque load range under the proven P-series, explains Jonathan McKey, National Sales and Marketing Manager at SEW-EURODRIVE. Offering a torque range from 10 to 18 kNm, the SEW PPK covers a gear ratio range from 65 to 390:1. The ratio can be further reduced by adding a primary reducer before the planetary head, allowing for ratios up to 10 650:1 for a much lower speed capability.\r\n\r\nAvailable with torque ratings from 2 to 124 kNm, the SEW P2.e range covers gear ratios from 15,2 to 332:1. While most planetary gearboxes have a three-stage design only, the SEW P2.e can also be supplied in a two-stage model. The SEW P2.e encompasses all the benefits of the SEW PPK, but goes a step further with a broader spectrum of diversity in its speed \u2013 up to 100 rpm \u2013 as well as in ratio and torque.\r\n\r\n\u201cThe high strength, durable materials with advanced heat treatment allow the gear units to withstand extreme loads and resist wear, thus making light work of high-torque requirements,\u201d says McKey. \u201cIn essence, these planetary gear systems produce high torque by distributing the load across several gears and using gear ratios to multiply the input torque. The efficient and compact design allows for the high torque in a relatively small package.\u201d\r\n<h5><strong>Thermal rating<\/strong><\/h5>\r\nOne of the major talking points is the exceptional thermal limit rating, which is made possible by the integrated fan in the motor interface. The fan aspirates air radially, accelerates it and generates a cooling stream of air with a high flow rate.\r\n\r\n\u201cThe SEW P2.e is the only planetary gear unit on the market with an integrated fan coupled directly between the motor and the planetary head. Consequently, it boasts a large cooling area (two to four times larger than some of the competitor offerings in this size class) \u2013 a condition which is central to the high thermal limit rating. Despite its high power density, the SEW P2.e series therefore boasts a best-in-class thermal limit rating,\u201d explains McKey.\r\n\r\nReduced weight is another major benefit of going the SEW P2.e route. With its lightweight gear unit design, the SEW P2.e is 24% lighter and 10% shorter in length, compared with some of the same- sized units on the market.\r\n\r\nGiven its nearly century experience in developing and constructing gear units for numerous customer applications, SEW-EURODRIVE has over the years amassed vast tribological expertise. Based on this and the results of long term testing, the company has developed a special formulation for its premium gear unit lubricants.\r\n\r\n\u201cBy using our premium gear unit lubricants, end users have peace of mind that their investments are protected \u2013 a high level of resistance to ageing reduces wear and increases the service life. Customers can expect up to 50% longer service intervals and a long shelf life of up six years if they are using the special SEW-EURODRIVE approved lubricants and implementing appropriate maintenance conditions,\u201d concludes McKey.\r\n\r\n ","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Anita Anyango","url":"https:\/\/miningbusinessafrica.co.za\/author\/mining-business-africa\/"},"articleSection":["Tech"],"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/miningbusinessafrica.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Capture-53.jpg","width":1147,"height":740},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"","url":"https:\/\/miningbusinessafrica.co.za","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":""},"sameAs":[]}}</script> <script type='application/ld+json'>{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"hentry","entry-title":"SEW-EURODRIVE planetary gear units for high torque requirements","published":"2025-02-19 08:39:58","updated":"2025-02-19 06:39:58"}</script> <script> WebFontConfig ={ google:{ families: [ 'Poppins::latin&display=swap' ] } }; (function(){ var wf = document.createElement('script'); wf.src = '//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/webfont/1/webfont.js'; wf.type = 'text/javascript'; wf.defer = 'true'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(wf, s); })(); </script> <script type='text/javascript'> !function(t){"use strict";t.loadCSS||(t.loadCSS=function(){});var e=loadCSS.relpreload={};if(e.support=function(){var e;try{e=t.document.createElement("link").relList.supports("preload")}catch(t){e=!1}return function(){return e}}(),e.bindMediaToggle=function(t){var e=t.media||"all";function a(){t.addEventListener?t.removeEventListener("load",a):t.attachEvent&&t.detachEvent("onload",a),t.setAttribute("onload",null),t.media=e}t.addEventListener?t.addEventListener("load",a):t.attachEvent&&t.attachEvent("onload",a),setTimeout(function(){t.rel="stylesheet",t.media="only x"}),setTimeout(a,3e3)},e.poly=function(){if(!e.support())for(var a=t.document.getElementsByTagName("link"),n=0;n<a.length;n++){var o=a[n];"preload"!==o.rel||"style"!==o.getAttribute("as")||o.getAttribute("data-loadcss")||(o.setAttribute("data-loadcss",!0),e.bindMediaToggle(o))}},!e.support()){e.poly();var a=t.setInterval(e.poly,500);t.addEventListener?t.addEventListener("load",function(){e.poly(),t.clearInterval(a)}):t.attachEvent&&t.attachEvent("onload",function(){e.poly(),t.clearInterval(a)})}"undefined"!=typeof exports?exports.loadCSS=loadCSS:t.loadCSS=loadCSS}("undefined"!=typeof global?global:this); </script> <script type='text/javascript'> var c = document.body.className; c = c.replace(/tie-no-js/, 'tie-js'); document.body.className = c; </script> </body> </html>
