As an all-new supplement to the modular industrial gear range, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS now provides extruder flanges optimized for heavy duty operation. Several different extrusion flanges are available for each of the industrial gear units from size 5 to size 11, with rated torques from 15 kNm to 80 kNm. Almost all usual dimensions can thus be adapted. Extra-large thrust bearings ensure that all process forces are absorbed and provide enhanced durability for long lifespans.

This new option for the industrial gears enables primary and secondary plastics and rubber manufacturers and their suppliers to create safe and highly reliable drives in very customizable configurations. The NORD industrial gear range offers a variety of input and output shafts and gaskets, flexible mounting directions, and thermal monitoring solutions. The extruder flange as well as industrial gear units in two additional sizes were showcased for the first time at the 2017 Hannover Messe exhibition.
