9. Which gears are used in agitators and mixers?
In agitators and mixers, the drive gear is often exposed to heavy loads. When selecting the geared motor, it is important to check whether the use of a more resilient Drywell gearbox is necessary. This transmission variant is characterized by a reinforced bearing of the drive shaft, a labyrinth seal and an oil drip disk. Drywell geared motors are available in a wide variety of designs and are available as bevel gear units (K.B series), flat gear units (D.B series) or as industrial heavy-duty gear units (H.B series).
