Building on the success of its tried-and-tested X.e series of high-performance industrial gear units and gearmotors, SEW-EURODRIVE has launched a new X.e series agitator gear design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This agitator gear unit boasts high permissible forces and bending moments alongside its operational reliability \u2013 making it ideal for all high-performance agitators and mixers. According to SEW-EURODRIVE\u2019s Head of Business Development Engineering, Andreas Meid, the agitator gear design expands the company\u2019s portfolio to include more application gear units designed for specific uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAgitator gear units are used in various industries across Africa including chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and water and wastewater treatment \u2013 for mixing and blending liquids and other materials,\u201d says Meid. \u201cThe X.e-series agitator gear units can be used wherever high power ratings are required for stirring and mixing liquid or paste-type materials.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SEW-EURODRIVE\u2019s X.e series features a modular design for flexible customisation, and includes innovative motor and gear unit technology that ensures high efficiency and long service life. As part of this range, the SEW-EURODRIVE X.e agitator gear unit is designed to provide reliable and efficient operation in these demanding applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meid highlights that the \u2018digital twin\u2019 concept was applied throughout the design process for the X.e-series agitator gear unit, making it possible to simulate and optimise the mechanical components and oil flow in virtual reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe application-specific rolling bearing concept \u2013 with a large bearing spacing and its rigidity optimised agitator housing \u2013 allows the unit to absorb the strong forces and bending moments that typically occur in agitation and mixing processes,\u201d he explains. \u201cDepending on the particular load scenario, there are three load-specific rolling bearing variants available for each size.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The X.e agitator gear unit\u2019s advanced gear technology, which includes helical and bevel-helical gearing, provides high torque transmission with low noise and vibration. This ensures smooth and efficient operation, even in high load applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAmong the innovative design elements of the gear unit is an oil expansion chamber to compensate for temperature variations,\u201d he says. \u201cIt also features a labyrinth sealing system to prevent contamination and reduce the risk of oil leakage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The units are available in three sizes, for a torque range of 117 to 217 kNm. As a three-stage or four-stage helical gear unit, it also covers gear ratios ranging from 20 to 400.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
