Heavy-duty gearboxes for mining and material handling systems

The Motomeccanica range of gearboxes for the mining sector includes tailor-made solutions for stacker-reclaimers, conveyor belt drives, travel units and sliding systems.

Cast iron or welded steel housings, validated through FEM analysis, ensure structural strength, while precision-ground gears provide accuracy and long service life even in the most challenging operating environments, characterised by dust, debris and high temperatures.

Travel and Sliding Systems

For travel and sliding systems, we provide gearboxes designed to ensure precision in the longitudinal movements of arms and mining structures.
