  • UNICASE Parallel Gear Motor for agitators and mixers

    Thanks to the appropriate sealing concept, the UNICASE Parallel Gear Motor from NORD becomes an efficient, compact solution for agitator and mixer applications. The optional “Drywell” bearing provides reliable leakage protection.

    • Handling of high radial and axial forces: Reinforced output shaft bearing with spread bearing design and robust bearings
    • No oil leakage into the agitator: any oil that may escape is directed via a oil drip disc into a collection chamber in the flange and reported by an oil leak detector.
    • High flexibility: compact and versatile installation dimensions and options

  • UNICASE Parallel Gear Motor for pallet lifts

    Drive solutions from NORD, such as the Parallel Shaft Gear Motor, are characterised by high reliability, long service life, low maintenance and compact design. They meet key requirements of warehouse logistics – in pallet lifts, for example.

    • Low space requirements thanks to slim size
    • Control individually adjustable to on-site requirements via centralised and decentralised NORD drive electronics
    • ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Pass-through hollow shafts allow for efficient dual-axis drive of the pallet lift
    • High forces and a wide range of speed ratios for individual adaptation to the application
    • Application-specific combination with different motors
  • NXD: Surface protection for extreme conditions

    The NXD BASIC® / NXD tupH® surface treatment makes aluminum even more resistant. This enables drive solutions to withstand harsh environmental influences and cleaning chemicals, ensuring long-term reliability even under demanding ambient conditions.

    • Operational reliability through effective surface protection against corrosion
    • High power density of lightweight drives with aluminium surfaces
    • Aluminum housings' high thermal conductivity reduces the risk of burns and the need for cooling
    • High level of hygiene with NXD tupH®, in compliance with food regulations of the FDA, EU, Switzerland and the MERCOSUR states
    • High variability, as the NXD BASIC® / NXD tupH® surface treatment is available for multiple variants of NORD's modular product system
