Gear Box Housing Cover
Requirements:
- Eliminate leakage of lubricants
- Tight seal to minimize particle ingression
- Long service life
Trelleborg Solution:
Thanks to its excellent adaptability, the FlatSeal™ HMF17 offers optimum sealing performance, even in the most critical environments. It effectively seals and prevents leakage from the gearbox housing by compensating for the low-rigidity material of the housing, few and widely spaced bolts and low, uneven surface pressure.
Input and Output Shafts
Requirements:
- Efficiency with minimal heat generation at high RPMs
- Protect against particle ingression (IP69K rating)
- Eliminate oil leakage
- Low-friction properties to enhance gearbox efficiency
- Long service life
Trelleborg Solution:
Seals used on both the input and output shafts have a significant effect on thermal performance and choosing the right material for these seals can improve performance and seal life. Radial shaft seals keep the oil in and contamination out for tens of thousands of hours. Cassette seals are ideal for dirty environments and the Forsheda® V-Ring can be used as an optional secondary seal.
