PRIMARY PACKAGING

Gearmotors in Contact with the Packaged Contents

In primary packaging, gearmotors can be in close or direct contact with the contents of the packaging. If those contents are liquids in a bottling machine or raw meat in a food processing line, then the gearmotor must either be protected from liquid spillage or be able to endure repeated washdowns.

SECONDARY PACKAGING

Gearmotors That Run Continuously for Multiple Shifts

Secondary packaging machines erect cardboard boxes, fill the boxes with cushioning material around the contents, and tape the boxes shut. These machines require a gearmotor that is durable enough to run continuously all day long.

END-OF-LINE PACKAGING

Strong Gearmotors for a Tough Job

End-of-line packaging equipment is used to contain multiple cartons on a single pallet. Strapping and shrink-wrapping systems often use gearmotors with torque ratings in excess of 1000 lb-in.

AC Induction Gearmotors

AC Induction Gearmotors for Simple Applications.

The simple, zero-maintenance design of AC induction gearmotors makes them ideal for single-speed applications that demand non-stop operation.

Brushed DC Gearmotors

Brushed DC Gearmotors for More Complex Applications

Brushed DC gearmotors are more complex than AC induction gearmotors and are ideal for adjustable speed, frequent starts-and-stops, braking, and reversing.

Brushless DC Gearmotors

Brushless DC Gearmotors for High Tech Applications

Brushless DC gearmotors use rare earth magnets and sensors instead of brushes, making them useful for high-tech servo applications.
