文摘:Building envelope manufacturer and contractor CA Group has praised the support it received from gearbox specialist Apex Dynamics UK to redesign the gearbox specifications in its converting machine, delivering much greater flexibility and dramatically cutting maintenance downtime. The company has a converting machine for the manufacture of steel sections for cladding containing a series of 20 Apex Dynamics spiral bevel gearboxes working together. CA Group's maintenance team identified a problem with the previous set-up, as the gearboxes were connected by a solid shaft all the way through, which did not allow for any flexibility of movement. This flaw in the overall design meant that seals were under strain and often began to leak, leading to high failure rates. Additionally, if a gearbox failed or a seal blew out, it would result in 5-6 hours of downtime to repair the machine because of the difficulty of accessing the gearboxes.
