Printing

Newspaper Full Colour Printing Machine uses Neeter Drive Gearboxes to run at High Speed

Application
Driving paper feed rollers at extremely high speed on a full colour newspaper printing machine. The gearboxes need to cope with extremely high speeds for up to 24 hours a day. The units needed to be designed to be able to offer a very high degree of precision and repeatability.

Solution
Neeter Drive gearboxes specially designed LABYRINTH (oil feed and cooled) and Shift Transmission (ability to switch gears to offer opposite output rotations) gearboxes were selected to provide almost 100% efficiency from initial start up, maintenance free operation, low running temperatures and high reliability, while running trouble free for 24 hours per day, 6 to 7 days per week.
