Our stainless steel gear units in the RES.., KES.., and WES.. series are based on our standard gear unit modular concept. Thanks to their hygienic design and a surface that is resistant to both acids and alkalis, the stainless steel gear units are particularly easy to clean. They are available as helical gear units (RES..), helical-bevel gear units (KES..), and SPIROPLAN® right-angle gear units (WES..).
The RES../KES../WES.. stainless steel gearmotors combine the stainless steel gear units from the RES.., KES.., and WES.. series with an asynchronous stainless steel motor. Optimized for efficiency, these low-maintenance stainless steel gearmotors boast a long service life, offer outstanding hygiene, and are easy to clean.
Our AESMS.. and AESQS.. stainless steel adapters can be used as an innovative way of connecting standard-compliant asynchronous motors (IEC or NEMA standard) and servomotors made from stainless steel. The stainless steel adapters are compatible with the RES.., KES.., and WES..stainless steel gear unit series.
The stainless steel servo gearmotors from the PSH..CM2H.. series meet the strict guidelines of the European Hygienic Engineering Design Group (EHEDG) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Furthermore, they have been specially designed for applications where dynamics and positioning are key, such as slicer machines.
The stainless steel servomotors from the CM2H.. series are also easy to clean and resistant to acids and alkalis. There are no corners, edges, or indentations in the housing where liquids and dirt could be deposited and accumulate. The stainless steel servomotors are available with either a B5 flange or a B14 flange on the output side, thus offering flexibility in terms of machine design.
Manufactured on the basis of high-quality stainless steels and boasting degrees of protection up to IP69K, our stainless steel drives and stainless steel adapters are specifically designed for long-term use in damp, hygiene-critical environments. They can withstand high levels of humidity, varying temperatures, and hot steam, and they are also resistant to corrosive cleaning agents such as acids and alkalis. As a result, our stainless steel products are perfectly suited to clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilization-in-place (SIP) processes.
What's more, thanks to rounded radii in excess of 3 mm, there are no corners or edges, making cleaning much easier. The solid and sturdy design of our stainless steel drives and stainless steel adapters ensures both a long service life and maximum availability.
We use only high-quality stainless steels (V2A SS304) for our stainless steel drives and stainless steel adapters. V2A (AISI 304 / 1.4301) steels are steel alloys with chromium and nickel (CrNi steel). These stainless steels are resistant to water, steam, humidity, food acids, and corrosive cleaning agents, making them ideal for a range of uses, including in the food, drink, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries.
One of the classic areas where our stainless steel drives are used is the milk-processing industry, where strict hygiene requirements apply. Nowadays, it's hard to imagine this industry without aseptic fill and seal machines fitted with suitably resistant drive technology. These machines are used, for example, to fill pots, tubs, and jars with yogurt, pudding, and drinks. The same hygiene and cleaning requirements apply to processes involving the use of slicers. Our stainless steel drives are the perfect choice for these machines, since sausage and cheese can then be sliced in perfectly hygienic conditions.
Our stainless steel products are also used in the following areas:
