Trilogy Machinery has added direct-drive design on all of its LEMAS three- and four-roll plate bending rolls.
The LEMAS four-roll double-pinch plate bending rolls feature no belts or chains as the drive motor is directly coupled to the bending rolls, offering 100% power and torque. In addition, LEMAS does not use a “universal joint” that produces a weak link between the drive motor and bending roll.
LEMAS plate rolls all feature the Sumitomo Cyclo 6000 gear-less speed reducers, which use a epicycloidal design superior to conventional speed reducers using common tooth gears. Unlike tooth-style gears with limited contact points, a Cyclo has two-thirds of its reduction components in contact at all times. This design enables Cyclo speed reducers to withstand shock loads exceeding 500% of their ratings. LEMAS four-roll double-pinch bending rolls feature hydraulic adjustment of the bending rolls and the lower pinch roll with separate convenient pinch pressure adjustment.
