EICKHOFF ANTRIEBSTECHNIK CONTROLLING LARGE FORCES EFFICIENTLY

Eickhoff gearboxes have been used successfully for many different applications and under the most extreme conditions for about 100 years – worldwide. From the tailor-made design closely coordinated with the customer right up to the bespoke service and maintenance concepts, all Eickhoff gearboxes have two things in common: maximum quality and maximum reliability. Eickhoff gearboxes GEARBOX SOLUTIONS FOR A WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS

You need powerful, hard-wearing gearboxes to move heavy loads. Therefore, Eickhoff gearboxes are especially popular for applications in clinker mills in the cement industry, stretch levelling plants in the steel industry, for bucket wheel excavators in the mining of raw materials and for onshore wind turbines. CONTROLLING LARGE FORCES EFFICIENTLY WITH ROBUST GEARBOXES Inside our gearboxes, loads are distributed over several planetary gears for maximum power density

Flexible modification of gearboxes to match individual customer requirements is an established principle at Eickhoff, even during the draft design phase. That enables us to reduce the interfaces – something our customers regard as very beneficial. In the next step our engineers 2nd planetary gear stage configure the gearbox using our own design software. The good durability, reliability and performance of our gearboxes is ensured through the selection of the materials and the associated quality control measures, backed up by the special expertise of the Eickhoff foundry and our hardening and...

Comprehensive, competent support is what distinguishes Eickhoff service teams. That is why your first port of call when it comes to service is our engineering office. Our experienced specialists listen to your enquiries and initiate the necessary measures without delay. Regardless of manufacturer, our service technicians carry out videoscope inspections and status assessments on site and produce meaningful service reports for the most diverse gearbox types. One method we employe is EGOMS, our structure-borne sound and vibration measurement system, which allows both mobile and stationary service...

Untertürkheim weir dates from 1923, has four openings and is located downstream of Stuttgart’s inland port on the River Neckar. It includes a road bridge that links the Stuttgart suburbs of Wangen and Untertürkheim. A breakdown in one of the old drives in 1998 caused one of the gates to jam. The head water level could no longer be guaranteed; water flowed away over the jammed gate and made it necessary to clear the inland port completely. The refurbishment concept involved draining two channels in each of the three construction phases in order to renew the intermediate piers and weir plant buildings....

PLANETARY GEARBOXES Eickhoff Antriebstechnik GmbH, a leading company in gearing technology, has a range of industrial planetary gearboxes that ensure innovative solutions to match the individual requirements of customers. Our tried-and-tested planetary gearboxes, distinguished by their compactness, ease of servicing and power density, are available in eight different types and 19 different sizes. The optimised toothing combined with our highquality materials help ensure a quietrunning, fatigue-resistant gearbox design with a long service life. • Long-lasting and robust with high safety margins...

HELICAL GEARBOXES The Eickhoff range of helical gearboxes has advanced to become the optimum solution for a wide range of applications in industry. Our expertise in the development and production of helical gearboxes enables us to offer our customers unique engineering and well conceived designs. The foundation for this is the standard gearbox designed according to a modular principle which is then modified to suit customer requirements exactly. The helical gears we use are hardened and ground and have milled protuberances. Optimum tooth design is guaranteed through computer design software....

BEVEL-HELICAL PLANETARY GEARBOXES Besides the planetary and helical gearboxes, we also offer our customers combinations of our gearboxes with bevel or worm gear stages to suit particular applications. These custom products help us to provide optimum solutions for the most diverse gearing applications and hence serve the different needs of customers. Eickhoff gearboxes are characterised by their maximum flexibility, excellent robustness and the use of the very latest technology. Our hardwearing, highly reliable products can be used profitably in extreme operating conditions worldwide, e.g. in...

WIND TURBINE GEARBOXES Our 5 MW test bench and environmental test chamber help us to verify compliance with the quality demands of our customers. All tests are logged precisely. For example, we test all prototype gearboxes under representative loading conditions and, if required, also subject them to a temperature of –40 °C (–40 °F) to check their low-temperature suitability. In addition, we offer our customers bespoke service and maintenance concepts, which enable them to reduce their operating costs and at the same time optimise their plant availability by way of faster reaction times. Technical...
