R. A. Rodriguez Introduce New Ranges of Spiral Bevel Gearboxes(Pic)

New from KHK, Japan¡¯s leading manufacturer of gear products, are two new ranges of spiral bevel gearboxes that have just been introduced to the UK by precision component supplier, R. A. Rodriguez. These products are ideal for specifiers who need a good quality gearbox available from stock. Thanks to their plastic resin housing the new PBX miniature bevel gearboxes are lightweight and compact. They have superior chemical and thermal resistance, are maintenance free and have a speed ratio of 1:1. The units have through-holes and counter-bores allowing mounting in any orientation. For applications involving high duty cycles and high speed the new CBX range of bevel gearboxes is a good, value-for-money choice. The units have a high grade case iron housing and use tapered roller bearings. The spiral bevel gears themselves are made from case-hardened alloy steel and the quality of their manufacture ensures both low noise and highly efficient motion control. Gear ratios for the CBX range are 1:1 or 1:2 which meet the requirements of most applications. In common with the PBX range, the CBX is available with two or three output shafts and it also offers exceptional design flexibility; 24 permutations of shaft orientation and rotation are standard with the CBX bevel gearboxes.
