Overview

Overview

 

Lufkin Gears low-speed, increasing, reduction, and parallel shaft gears are widely used with turbines, pumps, electric motors, generators, and compressors in many heavy industries and are renowned for reliable performance in the most demanding applications.

Using state-of-the-art design, we adapt to a variety of industry standards such as ISO, DIN, API, and AGMA, and our gear drives can also be ATEX-certified on request. Each gearbox is individually factory-tested at full speed under no-load or loaded test regimens.

A wide range of options such as upgrade and repair services are available, including full lubrication systems, continuous monitoring vibration and temperature sensors, as well as clutch and anti-rotation systems. We also offer drop-in replacement gearboxes following customer and application requirements to reduce downtime and avoid disruptive on-site modification.

 

Rubber and plastics

Tire producers around the world count on heavy-duty Lufkin Gears speed reducers for batch mixers and mills. We also specialize in custom applications including extruders, calendars, and roll mills.
