GEAR UNITS
The FLENDER gear unit series is a universal
standard gear unit range which has been
developed for the use in nearly all fields of the
mechanical power transmission technology.
The product range has been designed as a modular
construction system enabling extraordinarily short
delivery times. Important add-on pieces have already
been integrated into the standard product range, so
that the adaptation of a gear unit to your special
requirements will have no negative effect on the
delivery time.
The most important features are:
• Helical and bevel-helical gear units;
• Universally applicable;
• Modular construction system;
• Fast availability worldwide;
• High power capacity;
• Worldwide tried and tested in more
than 60,000 drive systems.
• Construction of gear units according to
specification 94/9/EG (Atex95) is possible
