Comer Industries products offers diverse solutions for industrial machinery including systems for cranes and construction machines. Under the new agreement HES Tractec now distributes planetary gear drives, slew drives and rigid and steering axles. Applications include crane, winching and hoisting systems, material handling equipment and mobile plant.
The Comer range is divided into 21 basic groups, based on the different torques that are to be transmitted to the output shaft, which can vary from 0.5 to 65 kNm.
The planetary drives’ modular construction permits the coupling of bevel gears, worm gears, hydraulic brakes and a variety of input shafts to the planetary units, as well as providing for a choice of coupling flanges for hydraulic, air and electric motors.
Various stages, in different sizes, can be mounted to offer a wide range of reduction ratios, ranging from 3:1 to 7:1 on single-stage drives up to 10,000:1 and more on five-stage drives.
Trevor Domm, sales director of Group HES Ltd., said: “The planetary drive transmissions are highly customised and offer cutting-edge design expertise. They are versatile enough to be used for a variety of applications to satisfy each customer’s requirements.”
