0:00 A customer needs an application where
0:02 a gearbox may
0:03 have to be pivoted.
0:04 To what extent does ZIMM offer the customer the
0:07 opportunity to support him in this?
0:12 There are also different approaches to pivoting applications.
0:15 Depending on which gearbox type is
0:17 chosen,
0:18 there is the option of
0:20 pivoting the entire system.
0:22 This is
0:24 possible for almost every constellation.
0:26 But here, too, you have to
0:29 assess the customer's requirements and connection options
0:31 , and pivoting applications can also be
0:35 implemented very, very well with our electric actuator units.

In many machinery and plant engineering projects, there is a requirement to design screw jack systems or electromechanical actuators with a pivoting function. ZIMM offers suitable solutions for this – tailored to the gearbox type and the specific application conditions.

Why do gearboxes need to be pivoted?

In certain applications in mechanical engineering, it is necessary to align or mount gearboxes flexibly with a pivoting function – for example, in case of changing load situations or limited installation space.

How does ZIMM support pivoting gearbox applications?

Depending on the selected gearbox type, ZIMM offers various technical implementations:

  • Pivoting mounts for nearly any system configuration
  • Adjustment of the mounting according to the requirements
  • Technical consulting based on a requirement analysis

What must be considered for pivoting gearbox systems?

The suitable solution is always defined based on project-specific requirements to ensure functionality, operational safety, and efficiency.
