Brother Gearmotors: More bore sizes for gearmotors

See them at PACK EXPO, Booth #7020! Brother Gearmotors, a division of Brother International Corporation, is offering new bore sizes to widen the range of its line of ultra-reliable, sub-fractional AC gearmotors and reducers for the packaging, food & beverage, and unit handling industries; the gearmotors feature compact size and energy efficiency, and are sealed for life.

Each gearmotor model comes with a long-lasting protective paint coating whose electrostatic application helps assure a consistently tough, chemically-resistant coating designed to withstand especially harsh production environments. All gearmotors carry a high-grade grease standard, which means they are lubricated for the life of the product, helping to eliminate costly downtime for lubrication changes.

New bore sizes for the company’s gearmotors are manufactured on state-of-the-art machinery located in a new manufacturing facility based in Bartlett, TN. The modernized assembling facility –both ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2001 certified – helps the company to shrink lead times for customer orders to an estimated three days. On-site technology also makes available a broader product mix to North American customers, including 16 different gear ratios and six voltage options. The facility will be a North American complement to the primary gearmotor factory.
