General description
The gear unit described is a "FLENDER gear unit" designed for driving lautertun spentgrain cutting
machines.
The gear unit can be operated in both directions of rotation.
The gear unit is characterised by a low noise level, which is achieved by helical gears with a high contact
ratio and a sounddamping housing.
The good temperature characteristics of the gear unit are achieved by its high degree of efficiency, large
housing surface and performancerelated cooling system.
The lauter tun drive is delivered as a complete drive unit assembled from various components.
The drive is designed for vertical mounting and must be operated only with the vertically adjustable shaft
pointing upwards.
