Slew drives are used for concurrent transmission of axial and radial forces, as well as transmission of tilting moments. Slew drives consist of a ball or roller slewing ring, hydraulic or electric drives, and a completely enclosed housing. Series WD slew drives are designed with worm gear.
Typical applications:
Manlift platforms, steering gears for undercarriages of cranes, and heavy-duty vehicles, loading cranes, turntables, forklift rotators, mining equipment, photovoltaic and solar thermal applications
Characteristics:
Exhibits high torque at low output speeds and transmits high tilting moments, axial and radial loads
Attains highest capacity with smallest diameter configuration
Flat design, due to tangentially located drives
Provides high torque transmission (however, the duty must be taken into consideration)
Self-locking and non-self-locking Slew Drives are available
Consider the position of the output shaft when selecting the Slew Drive
