HDV Series stainless steel Worm Gear Speed Reducer

HDV Series Stainless Steel Worm Gear Speed Reducer
The HDV Series stainless steel worm gear speed reducers from INKOMA are specifically engineered for the food and beverage industry, where hygiene, durability, and resistance to harsh washdown conditions are paramount. Combining trusted HDV Series worm gearing with an innovative design, these units are optimized to meet the stringent demands of industries with strict sanitation standards and regulatory requirements.

Key Features and Benefits:

1. Stainless Steel Construction for Durability and Hygiene

• 316 stainless steel housing, bearing carriers, and flanges: The high-quality stainless steel ensures excellent resistance to corrosion, ideal for applications exposed to frequent washing and aggressive cleaning agents.
• 303 stainless steel output shafts: Provides additional corrosion resistance and durability in demanding applications.

2. Innovative Exterior Design for Hygienic Operations

• Rounded housing: The design eliminates flat surfaces where dirt, fluids, or foreign matter can accumulate, preventing particle build-up and improving hygiene.
• Smooth, uninterrupted surfaces: Prevents pooling of fluids and particle accumulation, ensuring the gear unit stays clean and functional even under harsh washdown conditions.
• Double-lipped shaft seals: Ensure protection against contaminants and prevent leakage, contributing to cleaner and more reliable operations.

3. Lubed for Life with Food-Grade Lubricant

• H1-rated food grade lubricant: Klubersynth UH1 6-460 is used to ensure long-lasting lubrication, meeting the stringent requirements of the food and beverage industry. The “lubed-for-life” feature reduces maintenance needs and prevents contamination.

4. Washdown Capability

• IP69K-rated: Available when ordered with the high-pressure washdown seal option, ensuring that the gear units are fully protected against high-pressure water jets and extreme washdown conditions typical in food processing and other sanitation-critical environments.
• Polished matte finish: Maintains a clean, aesthetically pleasing appearance throughout operation, even under frequent cleaning.

5. Ease of Maintenance and Operation

• Flange design: Incorporates jack bolt holes, which facilitate easy separation of the motor and reducer for maintenance or service.
• Motor flange with O-ring: Minimizes the ingress of particles or fluids, ensuring the gear unit remains sealed and clean.

6. Versatile Gear Ratio Options

• Available in single reduction ratios from 7.5:1 to 100:1, offering a range of torque outputs to suit different application needs.

7. Flexible Output Options

• Available with both hollow and solid output shafts, providing flexibility for various installation and application requirements.

Applications:

• Food and Beverage Industry: Perfect for environments where cleanliness and hygiene are critical, such as processing, packaging, and bottling lines.
• Pharmaceutical and Chemical Industries: Where corrosion resistance and stringent hygiene standards are necessary.
• Washdown Areas: Designed to withstand the harshest washdown conditions, ideal for any application where frequent cleaning and sanitizing are required.
