Variable speed gearboxes and gear motors

Variable speed gearboxes and gear motors that will never let you down. For decades. Under the toughest conditions.

We have a complete range of variable speed gearboxes and gear motors, which are used worldwide for the most demanding applications. Our variable speed gearboxes and gear motors meet the highest quality standards – according to our quality commitment "Swiss Excellence – Since 1936".

Our variable speed gearboxes and gear motors are the proven solution when variable speeds are required or when conditions are extremely harsh. Variable speeds are required in the food industry, for example, when the size of the products on the conveyor belt varies. This requires fast, direct speed adjustment. Harsh conditions prevail in agriculture, for example. In an environment exposed to weather, water, dust, and sand, variable speed gearboxes and gear motors are the right choice. Due to the absence of moisture-sensitive electronic controls, their robustness and reliability is unmatched.

Our variable speed gearboxes and gear motors are used when high robustness, durability, as well as a compact and cost-efficient solution are required at the same time. Stepless control is possible when the machine is in operation or stopped. This prevents downtime during production.
