DieQua has built a 40-year reputation for providing robust, precise, and reliable motion control solutions. The latest chapter in our story includes the new GearSync Series, a product line born from extensive feedback from engineers like you - the ones who rely on gearboxes every day. We listened to your frustrations, your challenges, and your wish lists. The result is a modular system that tackles three of the biggest hurdles in modern machine design. The Challenge: Fitting High Torque Into Small Spaces Modern machinery requires more power in [...]

Roller Drive and Gap Control

Jeff Gibbons2025-11-12T20:42:41-06:00July 26th, 2018|Application Examples, Educational|

Providing production flexibility in machinery design, to manufacture or process different product sizes for example, is becoming more of a necessity with today’s desire for shorter runs and quicker deliveries. With our consultative approach and some unique capabilities, we were able to help a recent customer achieve the flexibility he needed. A prospect recently contacted us with interest in our spiral bevel gearboxes with hollow output shaft. His task was to feed material through two counter rotating drums or rollers. The kicker was that different material sizes where required, meaning the center distance between the [...]

A Concrete Example of Motion Control Benefits

The infrastructure and building construction industry is vital to the growth of a dynamic economy. Commercial building and bridge support structures are one element of these industries. Concrete continues to play an important role as a primary material resource. The development of improved manufacturing and converting methods, for standard and custom structural building products, is an ongoing endeavor. Especially now when the construction industry faces such big challenges to provide cost effective structures with adequate ROI. A customer recently approached us with a design challenge to assist them in improving the automation of their concrete [...]

Input Coupling Improves Worm Performance

Jeff Gibbons2025-11-12T20:42:20-06:00June 6th, 2018|Application Examples|

Worm gear speed reducers are used in a variety of applications because of the many advantages they offer. These include a compact design, with high ratios possible in a single stage, a right angle configuration that allows for shaft mounting and tucking the motor up next to the machine frame, and a relatively low cost compared to other gear technologies. They do have certain disadvantages, however, as they are relatively inefficient, and even more so when run slowly or started and stopped frequently. It's the give and take of these characteristics that determine if a [...]

Dual Input Gearbox Provides Dual Output Speed Solution

Jeff Gibbons2025-11-12T20:42:05-06:00February 19th, 2018|Application Examples|

There are a lot of processes that require continuous, smooth running, rotary motion. But sometimes two different speeds are necessary. Inverters or servo gearheads can’t always deal with the differences. In a lot of applications, variable speed can be accomplished with an inverter. By varying the hertz a motor can operate at a relatively wide speed range. However, when running above 60 Hz there is usually a drop off in output torque. And when the hertz drop below 20, in many instances additional cooling is necessary because the fan isn’t turning fast enough. And when [...]
