Varvel Gearboxes

Varvel takes pride in the fact that they offer a modular format gearbox. These are available in what they refer to as 'kit form' allowing you to spec a gearbox exactly to your requirements. 

Available in a huge variety of shapes, sizes and ratios, and even in ATEX rating in some series, these gearboxes are both priced well and suited to industrial demands. Due to the huge numbers of options, we ask that you call to spec these after browsing the range here on the site.

Varvel RO | RO2 Series

Varvel's helical bevel gearboxes are manufactured with two and three reduction stages and are designed for fractional and medium powers as mainly used in conveyor driving. The gearboxes are especially suitable for outdoor applications thanks to long-lasting and service-free operation. RO-RV Series is designed according to ISO design standard and the robust framework is not subjected to significant buckling under running torque and external loads with positive outcome on oil seal tightness. Solid output shafts, foot, flange or torque arm fixing are fully available.

Varvel RD Series

The helical gearboxes Series RD feature a one-piece cast housing complete with inner support to accommodate 2 or 3 gear stages into the same casing. Manufactured to latest ISO engineering design specifications the housing is checked by computer-aided structural analysis for deflection and stress distribution.

Significant strains caused by the effects of torque and external loads do not deflect the monolithic ribwork of the housing, which significantly improves the integrity of the sealed surfaces.

The helical gearboxes Series RD are manufactured in B3 base mounted configuration. They can be easily converted to B5 flange mounting by fitting of the appropriate additional adaptor flange.

Single-setup machining on state-of-the-art CNC production lines, the most recent calculation techniques and process controls give superior operational reliability, maximum output torques, high overhung and thrust load capacity, and long working life-time. 

Varvel RG Series

RG Series planetary gearboxes are designed as one and two stage versions, with hardened and tempered steel housing and broached internal gear. Manufactured to latest ISO engineering design specifications is checked by computer-aided structural analysis for deflection and stress distribution. Significant strains caused by the effects of both torque and external loads do not stress the monolithic housing, substantially improving the sealed surfaces. Epicycloidal speed reducers RG are made of alloyed steel gearing, hardened and tempered; the planetary gear shafts of tempered steel. Motor coupling options are available with clamping clutch, input flange and bush adapters. Single-setup machining on state-of-the-art CNC production lines, the most recent calculation techniques and process controls give superior operational reliability, maximum output torques, high overhung and thrust load capacity, and long working life-time.

Varvel RVR | VS Series

The mechanical speed variators are designed according to a proven system that provides strict quality control at every stage of production. The goal is to provide the customer with a variable speed drive that is both reliable and easy to assemble, in respect of what the safety regulations are in many different areas (potentially explosive atmosphere, food & beverage and so on). The attention to detail, the deep experience of over 60 years, and not least the use of the latest machinery and software technology enable the full achievement of this milestone.
