Heavy Industry Drive Solutions
Eickhoff drives have been successfully utilized worldwide for nearly a century across a diverse range of applications and in the most extreme conditions. From custom-designed solutions closely coordinated with customers to individualized service and maintenance concepts, all Eickhoff drives share a common trait: maximum quality ensuring maximum reliability.
As a critical component for success, the drive ensures optimal performance in various applications. The gearbox, essential for the functionality of drive systems, plays a pivotal role. Eickhoff's product portfolio is tailored to meet heavy-duty requirements, offering a wide range of gearbox designs including planetary, helical, bevel-helical, and various combination variants. With our extensive experience, our engineers possess the expertise to customize drives for specific applications.
One of the primary industries served by Eickhoff’s drive solutions division is the grinding of cement and other raw materials using roller presses. Over the years, the company has amassed numerous references in this field. Another application in which our drives excel under harsh conditions is the material handling of bulk materials via reclaimers.
The development of Eickhoff’s new ED gearbox series involved incorporating the latest scientific findings on calculation and design, as well as the company’s field experience from the past decade. This enabled the company to uphold high-quality standards from the wind series business in its industrial gearboxes. Achieved through the utilization of state-of-the-art machine tools and consistent monitoring of material quality, the new ED planetary gearbox series comprises 24 sizes, offering a torque range from 200 kNm up to 8,000 kNm. With one to four gear stages, ratios ranging from 4.5 to 3,550 can be precisely adjusted to suit specific applications. Users benefit from increased power density due to optimal material utilization and higher availability thanks to an optimized raw parts concept, all while maintaining equipment adaptability. The flexible adaptation is facilitated by a modular gearbox and drive system structure.
Following delivery, our service team supports customers throughout the entire lifecycle of the drive. From commissioning to supervision of the drive train, Eickhoff provides comprehensive assistance. With an internationally operating sales and service network, we swiftly respond to minimize downtimes.
