ConExpo 2014 Exhibitor Profile: Baldor Electric Co.

Baldor’s new line of shaft mount right-angle beltless Motorized Torque-Arm (MTA) reducers are offered in seven sizes, from 3 to 100 hp, and torque ratings up to 130,000 in./lbs. This reducer mounts in multiple positions and is ideal for areas where standard belt driven reducers will not fit, the company says. The MTA reducer features the patented Dodge twin tapered bushing system that makes installation and removal easy, and provides a sturdy, concentric grip of the driven shaft on both sides of the reducer. This eliminates the wobble and fretting corrosion associated with straight bore and single bushed reducers. Available in full length and short shaft systems, both guarantee maximum torque transmission, the company says. Engineered to perform in harsh conditions, the MTA has a patented premium sealing system with excluder seal technology for extra protection against contaminants, and has a -40°F to 300°F+ temperature range. The reducer has an American Gear Manufacturers Association rated design, with all tapered roller bearings, offering twice the bearing design life versus competitors’ units.
