Hansen Transmissions drive solutions
3rd Quarter 2012
Electrical switching & drive systems & components
Hansen Transmissions will showcase its industrial drive technology and mechanical power transmission solutions at Electra Mining 2012. The display of solutions-driven large industrial gearboxes will include the Hansen l4, the Hansen P4 and the Hansen M4ACC air cooled condenser.
The locally designed Hansen I4 invertible left- and right hand-orientated industrial gearbox for multiple underground drive conveyor systems can be inverted for either handing, eliminating the need for separate drives. Recognising the significant cost and space saving benefits offered by the Hansen I4, the local coal mining industry has largely standardised on the unit.
The rugged, reliable and powerful Hansen P4 large industrial gearboxes meet typical surface and underground drive applications for conveyors, elevators, cranes, hoists, bucket wheel drives, ship loaders, travel drives, and tripper drives. Operating reliably under the most severe conditions, the Hansen P4 moves heavy, bulky materials on a high volume basis and meets diverse industry requirements such as size, mounting arrangement, cost savings in electrical power, reduced downtime and increased productivity.
The modular Hansen M4ACC industrial gearbox offers a cost effective, efficient solution for air-cooled steam condensation plants suitable for dry environments with limited water resources. Class leading techniques and proven Hansen P4 technology are incorporated in the impressive design of the Hansen M4ACC which features effective and efficient cooling capabilities, an integrated dry-well and the absence of external lubrication piping. HTSA is supplying 768 M4ACC gearboxes to two local power stations that have adopted these units as standard.
