The dynamic development of the packaging industry requires reliable components that will meet the high expectations of OEM producers. One of the key elements ensuring effective and trouble -free operation of packaging machines are planetary and angular gears. The solutions available on the market are particularly distinguished by Neugart gears , offering a combination of precision, durability and innovative technologies.
Challenges of the packaging industry and the role of the transmission
High work speed, precise "pick-and-Plant" operations, resistance to intensive operation and the possibility of using food production in the environment-these are just some of the challenges facing the manufacturers of packaging machines. The appropriate transmission must ensure:
- smooth movement of the torque,
- stable and quiet work,
- low slack coefficient,
- resistance to emergency loads,
- Possibility to work for a long time without serving.
The Neugart company responds to these needs, offering a wide range of solutions tailored to both classic packaging lines and advanced robotic applications.
angular transmission WPLN-effectiveness in work under load
One of the Neugart's flagship products intended for the packaging industry is the WPLN angular gearbox. It was developed for maximum performance in intensive use conditions.
The most important features of WPLN:
- construction based on the hypoidal gear , guaranteeing smooth and quiet operation,
- reduced vibrations and higher positioning precision,
- two -stage construction - enabling work at both lower (22-45 Nm) and higher torque (27-77 Nm),
- very low clearance (<5 angle minutes, in a precise version even <4 angle minutes),
- wide range of input speed (1450–2700 RPM),
- compact mass - e.g. the WPLN070 model weighs just over 3 kg,
- Permanent lubrication, eliminating the need for frequent reviews.
Thanks to its versatility, WPLN is an ideal solution for fast packaging lines, where every second of work counts and reliability in continuous mode.
NDF transmission-ideal for delta robots and "pick-and-place" operations
The growing automation of packaging processes means that manufacturers are increasingly willing to reach for Delta parallel works. However, they require specialized components capable of working in extremely dynamic conditions. For such applications, the coaxial gearbox Neugart NDF064 was created.
Key advantages NDF064:
- Application of the Helikal gear , providing quiet operation at high speeds,
- Four planetary wheels that increase the load capacity and accuracy of the moment,
- high precision thanks to the gear ratio 5.5: 1 ,
- nickel -plated output collar protecting against corrosion,
- Possibility of configuration in a stainless steel version, resistant to hygiene conditions,
- The lubrication option with food oil , approved for contact with food and drinks,
- A optimized low inertia assembly system, allowing for quick and repetitive changes in the direction.
These features make the NDF transmission a great solution for tasks requiring maximum precision and dynamics-ideal for robotics in the "pick-and-Plant" segment.
Why do OEM manufacturers choose Neugart gears?
Neugart gears are an investment in:
- reliability - durability confirmed by tests in high load conditions,
- precision - crucial in modern packaging processes,
- flexibility - availability of many variants and configuration options,
- maintenance -free - thanks to lasting lubrication and durable construction,
- Compliance with the requirements of food and pharmaceutical industries - thanks to the use of appropriate materials and lubricating oils.
Thanks to these advantages, the Neugart gears are used not only in classic packaging lines, but also in modern robotic solutions that increase production efficiency and reduce operating costs.
The packaging industry is developing dynamically, and the key element of maintaining competitiveness is investing in proven and reliable technologies. Neugart gearboxes , such as Knotowa WPLN or coaxial ndf064 , set new standards of precision and durability in OEM machines.
Thanks to its versatility, resistance to intensive operation and adaptation options to the food industry, they are a certain choice for producers looking for reliable solutions for packaging processes and robotic applications like "pick-and-plant".
