In steel production, the reliability of plant and machinery is the top priority. Various gearboxes and geared motors are used in the course of the production process. They are integrated in many applications that roll, process and refine crude steel. These include band saws and rollers, bending presses, driving rollers and tube bending machines, to name just a few examples.
We can provide you with various solutions for drives in the steel industry. Further down on this page you will find a few examples of applications for our high-quality products. If you do not find what you are looking for in the applications listed below, please contact us and let us advise you. A gearbox or geared motor adapted to your needs will be designed for you.
STEEL APPLICATION
- ROLLER TABLE
- BENDING PRESSES
Metallic workpieces are plastically formed by bending forces. Round products such as tubes or profiled products such as corrugated sheet metal are produced by roll bending. The workpiece is pressed by two or more rotating rollers. Angles, sheet metal housings and covers are produced by die bending. The workpiece is pressed by the punch from above into the lower die and thereby takes on its shape. The components are also produced by swivel bending. The clamped workpiece is bent by the rotating bending beam around the clamping beam. Premium Stephan geared motors with medium to high ratios are used as press drives.
- CUTTING SHEARS
Shearing is the splitting of a workpiece by two cutting edges moving past each other (DIN 8588). In sheet metal working, this method is often used for straight cuts. Compared to other processes such as laser cutting, flame cutting or water jet cutting, it is much more cost-effective. A distinction is made between scissors-guided shears in which the upper blade moves parallel to the lower blade and the much more precise oscillating-cut shears in which the upper blade moves on a circular path past the lower blade. Due to the high forces, robust geared motors are required as the drive. Premium Stephan has these drives in a wide performance range in its range...
