Companies are continuously looking to improve energy rating and cost efficiency in the manufacturing industry. CBT partner, Gates Corporation has developed their Synchronous Belt Drive System as an innovative alternative to the outdated V-Belt system. V-belts can lose up to 5% or more in efficiency due to slip and the resulting torque loss. Poorly maintained V-belts can require more frequent replacement and that means costly downtime. With the help of CBT and Gates, your application could increase efficiency and save thousands.

The only cable carrier to offer IP54 protection rating, Tsubaki’s chip-tight tube series offers protection in the harshest environments. The TKA Series Cable Carrier reliably protects cables against dirt, chips, and circulating spray water while also preventing ingress of coolants and lubricants. With the enclosed stroke system and pin-hole joint, even large amounts of atomized oil and flying particles no longer pose a problem during cleaning.
Approximately 3 million workers service equipment and face the greatest risk of injury if lockout-tagout is not properly implemented. Companies continue to struggle with this regulation – OSHA issued more than 3,000 lockout-tagout violations in 2015, making it the fifth-most cited violation.
Federal regulations require that companies create and maintain lockout/tagout programs to prevent accidents. Many companies are still unaware that they are not compliant until it is too late. ESC Services, a Rockwell Automation business, is here to help modernize lockout-tagout programs to adhere with OSHA compliance and integrate industry best practices. ESC Services takes pride in the core knowledge on matters of lockout/tagout compliance and unique sensitivity towards minimizing the impact lockout/tagout can have on your business’ efficiency and productivity. ESC brings years of experience and state-of-the-art technology to help improve your understanding and implementation of proper lockout/tagout techniques.
According to the Department of Energy (DOE), manufacturing operations in the US spend $30 billion annually on electricity powering motor-driven systems, leading industrial experts to consider energy-efficient synchronous drive units as an alternative to v-belt drive systems.
The Dodge Quantis product line offers a full line of modular gear drives engineered for flexibility, greater torque density in a compact housing configuration, and increased horsepower capability from 0.18 to 55 kW (0.25 to 75 hp). The Quantis family of products offers the customer three types of gear reducers: In-Line Helical (ILH), Right-Angle Helical Bevel (RHB) and Motorized Shaft Mount (MSM). All three types of reducers are dimensionally interchangeable with major global competitors.
