Description
The Santa Ana Sugar mill installed an MGS PSB1-560 1021 GEARBOX on October 2017, designed to transmit 5,000 kW with an AGMA service factor of 3 and a transmission ratio of 1.25. The reducer is part of the drive system of a Dedini Hammer Defibrillator type Maxcell, which can defibrillate up to 20 000 tons of cane per day. It is powered by a three-phase ring induction motor with a power rating of 4,996 kW and a synchronous rotation frequency of 900 rpm. It is a parallel gearbox with a bihelicoidal gear stage made with cutting-edge technology, cemented steel, and rectified teeth within ISO tolerances 3 and 4.
