Compact and lightweight – such is the most common requirement for the gearboxes of emission-free, electric drives. With seven basic gearboxes, the LPI series by Liebherr fulfils exactly this need for high power density. With their low weight, reduced installation space and torque ranges from 20,000 Nm to 350,000 Nm, they are ideally suited as drives for crawler and crawler undercarriages. Customized large gearboxes are even available up to the maximum torque of 2,300,000 Nm.
International manufacturer Horsburgh & Scott Company announced that it has established a 32,000-square-foot facility in Slidell, LA, for the repair, service and assembly of industrial gears and gearboxes destined for the defense industry.
