At work where failure is not an option
For over 60 years, ACBAR gearboxes have been working in machines that must deliver every day — many first-generation units still run today. Six typical fields of use:
Travel drives
Mobile machinery under high loads and rough conditions — rolling power transmission absorbs shocks that would destroy gear teeth.
Hoists and winch drives
Overload safety and controlled motion: high reduction in a single stage, near-self-locking configurations on request.
Slewing and swivel drives
Smooth running and high torque in minimal space — coaxial design, any mounting position.
Conveying & positioning
Continuous operation without maintenance: lifetime lubrication, all-round sealing, all parts on rolling bearings.
Agitators & process technology
Extreme reductions for slow-running shafts — up to 13,600:1 without a primary stage, multi-stage virtually unlimited.
Retrofit of existing plants
Replacement and overhaul even for decades-old gearboxes — documentation going back to the 1920s.
