Gear Drives in Heavy-Duty Straightening & Leveling Machinery

Straightening and leveling machines require highly reliable torque transmission to correct material deformation and ensure consistent flatness. These systems operate under heavy loads, variable speeds, and continuous-duty conditions, which place demanding requirements on the gear reducers driving each roller. NUODUN supplied a customized multi-axis transmission solution designed to deliver stable performance, precise synchronization, and long-term durability.

Application

The machine shown integrates multiple NUODUN helical and worm-gear reducers, paired with high-efficiency geared motors. Each reducer is mounted directly onto the roller shaft to provide independent, controllable torque for every leveling stage.
