Solid shaft gearbox

Solid shaft gearboxes and hollow shaft gearboxes in comparison

In essence, a solid shaft gearbox is exactly the opposite of a hollow shaft gearbox. A solid shaft is an integral part of the respective application and turns from the inside out, in a manner of speaking. With a hollow shaft, the reverse occurs: Here, the application, which is provided with its own shaft, is inserted into the gearbox. While hollow shafts tend to be used in connection with weight-reduced designs, solid shafts can be provided with axial and radial threaded holes for fastening.

Solid shaft gearboxes from Ruhrgetriebe: reliable and low-maintenance

Our solid shaft gearboxes are characterised by high reliability. In addition, they are extremely low-maintenance – just like all worm gear units from Ruhrgetriebe. They are suitable for both directions of rotation and have a resistant closed housing. One example is the SN3B model from our production. We use special bronze for the production of our worm wheels, as it has excellent sliding properties. The gearboxes built by Ruhrgetriebe run particularly quietly and also have an impressively long service life. These positive properties are due to a well thought-out design in combination with permanent lubrication with special gear fluid oils and greases. As a rule, no relubrication of the gears is required, the lubricant does not need to be changed.
