Shaft Mounted Conveyor Gearbox - Shreeji Gears

Reliable Conveyor Gearboxes

Shreeji Gears is a trusted conveyor gearbox manufacturer, delivering robust and efficient drive solutions designed for the demands of material handling systems. Our gearboxes ensure reliable power for belt conveyors, screw conveyors, and bucket elevators.

We specialize in Shaft Mounted Speed Reducers (SMSR) and helical gearboxes optimized for conveyor applications. These units offer easy installation, high efficiency, and features like direct shaft mounting and optional backstops (anti-runback devices).

Driving Material Handling with Conveyor Gearboxes

Conveyor gearboxes are essential for providing the necessary speed reduction and torque to drive material handling systems efficiently. They must be robust enough to handle continuous operation, potential shock loads, and demanding industrial environments.

Common Types for Conveyor Applications:

  • Shaft Mounted Helical Gearbox (SMSR): Highly popular for conveyors, they mount directly onto the driven shaft using a taper grip bush. This eliminates couplings and baseplates, saving space and alignment time. A torque arm prevents gearbox rotation.
  • Bevel-Helical Gearbox: Used when a right-angle drive is needed. Offers high efficiency and a compact footprint.
  • Parallel Shaft Helical Gearbox: A versatile option providing high efficiency and a wide range of ratios, often coupled to the conveyor shaft.

Key Advantages:

  • Reliability: Designed for the continuous duty cycles typical in material handling.
  • Ease of Installation: Particularly true for shaft-mounted designs.
  • High Efficiency: Helical and bevel-helical gearing minimizes power loss.
  • Backstop Option: Integral anti-runback devices (backstops) are crucial for inclined conveyors to prevent reverse movement when stopped under load.
