Jeff Gibbons2025-11-12T20:40:39-06:00May 5th, 2021|Application Examples, DieQua News|

Because of the wide range of gearbox products we have in our product line up we often get calls with some strange requests. Well, they may seem strange to most gearbox suppliers since they usually only offer run-of-the-mill solutions. But for us, the unusual gearbox applications seem to be more the norm these days. We recently received a call from a customer who was looking for a way to drive 4 sets of rollers with a single power source. These rollers were set 90 degrees apart and were intended to rotate a load that was [...]

The myth of the paperless society has long ago been debunked. It’s very possible that the use of paper, for many requirements, has actually increased over the last several years. With the acceleration in computer power, more reports, spitting out a variety of information, can be generated faster and in more detail. And now that almost every household has a personal computer with a desktop printer, the demand for printer and copier paper continues to grow. Typical machine designs for the making and wrapping of reams of paper previously included a lot of cams and [...]

Corrosion Protection Option for a Wash Down Application

Jeff Gibbons2025-11-12T20:40:39-06:00March 3rd, 2021|Application Examples|

In food packaging applications machinery cleanliness and corrosion resistance are of major importance. But not every application needs stainless steel. Sometimes other options are acceptable. A new prospect contacted us recently looking to upgrade the performance and protection of the spiral bevel gearboxes they were using on their food packaging lines. Tighter motion control was becoming more and more important in their process so they were looking for a box with better consistency in rotary motion and lower backlash. The second thing they were looking for was good gearbox corrosion protection. Since a majority of [...]

With more and more labor-intensive operations moving offshore, the ability to automate the manufacturing process is critical for keeping operating costs in check, allowing North American companies to remain competitive in worldwide markets. This has drastically escalated the importance and influence of the entire motion control industry. In that vein, a customer of ours was designing a transfer system to automatically feed castings into a machining center and needed a motion control solution. The basic system included a large rotary table and two opposing robots to load and unload the table. The need was for [...]

I am sure just about everyone would be a little heated after being assigned to a stint in Antarctica. Working conditions are miserable at best. But that's exactly where a Tandler Spiral Bevel Gearbox was slated to go. It's well known that a variety of research and monitoring stations are based in Antarctica. It's a unique environment not found in many places on earth. The conditions are extreme. Many machines and instruments require special characteristics to be able to perform their expected duties. DieQua was presented with a challenge to provide a spiral bevel gearbox [...]

Reduce Down Time with Torque Limiters

With wood being one of the few renewable resources, its use continues to grow. But the automation of processing the raw material comes with its own challenges. By their very nature, wooden logs are inconsistent in size and density. Although converting tolerances are much larger than metal or plastic components, it's this variation that presents problems in high-speed automated processing. A customer of ours presented us with a problem they were having with their automated de-barking machine. The basic design included a large number of rollers and cutters that sheared the bark off raw logs. [...]
