Mill Gear

Mill gear, The twist free finishing block is of an advanced design, engineered to meet the strenuous demands of today’s high speed rod mills. The configuration comprises an electric motor driving through a synchronizing gearbox to give twin output extended to bevel gearboxes to from the two main mill drive-shafts of the block. From these drive shafts the bevel gears take the drive to the stands at 45º on each side of the vertical center line so giving 90 º stand to stand relationships. The drive shaft’s and bevel boxes etc, is all below pass line thus giving a low overall mill height for maximum operator access, visibility and operation.
