Varvel announces the implementation of worm gearboxes, Series RS, from the original design to a modular style.

The gearboxes are made of pressure die-cast aluminium housings and covers from size 28 to 85 and cast iron from size 110 up and are lubricated with synthetic long-life oil.

The major features of the new series RS are the easy fitting/replacement of input flanges B5 or B14, output flanges or bolted feet on both sides of the PC shaftmount basic version.

Furthermore the usual key-coupling between motor and gearbox was replaced by a customized elastic coupling type "G" without any increase in the geared motor dimensions allowing the motor shaft matching to an external coupling kit and not to a prearranged gearbox.

Such features make the new Series RS particularly fit for distribution, that is more and more concerned about versatility, inventory control and configuration flexibility.
