Getriebebau NORD has further developed the NORDBLOC series
compact block housing helical gearedmotors with new constructive
improvements. The drives now have lightweight aluminium die cast housings optimized with FEM calculations. The new design allows the mounting of larger, stronger bearings that permit higher radial and axial loads and so achieve a longer service life. The units can also be mounted more efficiently. Another instantly noticeable feature is that locking caps on the housings are no longer required, as openings previously needed for assembly, have been completely omitted in the new design. The launch of the new NORDBLOC generation will offer 2 sizes in dual stage design. Within short 8 sizes will be available in dual and triple stage design. New advantages have been added to established strengths: Economic direct motor mounting for example, is available as always. However with the new design very short, space- and weight-saving IEC adapters can also be attached. At the same time, the connection dimensions remain the same as earlier so that the new design can seamlessly replace an earlier model as needed.
