The marine industry uses high performance marine gears and gearboxes in a variety of vessels including fast ferry boats, luxury yachts, frigates and work boats etc. These gear boxes are generally much more powerful and complicated than the non-marine counterparts.

These gearboxes are available in a variety of configurations and specifications to meet critical applications. The selection of a gear and gearbox is made keeping in mind factors including gear geometry, speed, load and operating temperature among other considerations.

A wind turbine is a machine that converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. Different types of wind turbines including horizontal axis turbine make use of a gearbox responsible for slow rotation of blades into a quicker rotation. Wind turbines use a gearbox, together with a generator to transform mechanical power into electricity.

Large and commercial wind turbines make use of speed increasing gearboxes for reducing the total cost and weight. Various gears and gearboxes are used in wind turbines for connecting low-speed shaft to the high-speed shaft and increasing the rotational speeds. These gearboxes increase the RPM in the wind turbines to a level that is required to produce electricity.

A variety of power transmission equipment are used to drive different machines including horizontal or vertical pumps. A number of machines make use of gearboxes for transporting, storing, or conditioning of treated or untreated water.

Types of Gearboxes Used

• Helical Gearbox
• Spiral Bevel Gearbox
