CHEMICAL & REFINERY INDUSTRY
The chemical and refinery industry relies on quality gearboxes, like Falk gear reducers or Falk gearboxes, to ensure a steady and sterile production process. Gearboxes are used throughout the production process, from creating the chemical bases to packaging.
They are integral to the production and refinement process as they manage the speed and workflow of the operation while withstanding sometimes intense operating environments. Additionally, any gear reducer or gearbox must meet the demands of the industry for reliability, ease of maintenance, and cleanliness. Falk gear reducers and Falk gearboxes meet those standards.
FALK GEAR REDUCERS & GEAR BOXES FOR EXCEPTIONAL EFFICIENCY
When looking to repair or replace a gearbox or gear reducer, the unique demands of the chemical industry must be taken into account. A gearbox must be resistant to corrosion, reliable, provide long-lasting service, and be easily mounted for any specific application. Falk gear reducers and gearboxes are a perfect fit for these demands for applications in the chemical industry.
Because of the costly nature of any slowdowns or delays due to the failure of a component, it is important to have an on-hand supply of Falk surplus gear reducers and parts so that your trusted service provider can quickly repair or replace a damaged part.
Similar to the needs of the Oil & Gas Industry, the chemical and refinery industry relies on machine parts that can prevent leakages and emissions as much as possible. Our fluid sealing products can help ensure that there is minimal product loss in the creation of chemical bases, pharmaceuticals, or during other industrial applications.
BENEFITS OF FALK GEAR REDUCERS FOR THE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
There are a number of benefits that the chemical industry derives from gear reducers and gearboxes. They are designed with features that directly support the demands of chemical applications. Some of these benefits include:
- High load capacity
- Durability and long life
- A wide range of reduction ratios
- A design that is both compact and lightweight for ease of mounting
- Corrosion resistance
- Use of chemical-grade materials and finishes
- Reliable parts that will not deform even under temperature fluctuations
- Ability to be sterilized repeatedly without losing corrosion resistance
CHEMICAL INDUSTRY USES FOR FALK GEAR REDUCERS
The chemical and refinery industry relies on Falk gear reducers and Falk gearboxes for a number of applications. Each application has specific requirements that the gearbox is designed for, from low-speed gearboxes to drive drums and dryers, to providing slow output speed and high torque.
Having a supply of Falk surplus gear reducers and parts helps ensure that none of these applications are interrupted for more than is necessary for maintenance.
Some applications include:
- Draft fans
- Centrifugal pumps
- Turbine drives
- Generators
- Chemical mixers
- Pump drives
- Agitators
- Dryers
- Drums
- Cooling systems
- Turbo compressors
- Filling and packaging equipment
