Metal Processing Gearbox Solutions | Industrial Drives

From aluminum extrusion to copper wire drawing, your industrial machinery requires specialized metal processing gearboxes to deliver precision, reliability, and durability.

Standard drives cannot handle the intense loads of the metalworking industry. Gearbox failures disrupt tight production schedules, compromise product quality, and drive up maintenance costs. Your operation needs heavy-duty metal processing gearboxes engineered specifically for continuous operation, exact speed control, and immense torque.

High-Performance Metal Processing Gearboxes

In the demanding world of metallurgy, where precision meets power, a gearbox failure can halt an entire facility. Unscheduled breakdowns compromise delivery schedules and your bottom line. At TANHON, we manufacture industrial metal processing gearboxes specialized to handle extreme torque, maintain exact speed ratios, and operate flawlessly under severe shock loads and harsh thermal environments.

Gearboxes for Core Metal Processing Machinery

We provide exact drive solutions engineered for the unique mechanical challenges of shaping, drawing, and finishing diverse metal alloys.

Gearbox for Wire Drawing Machine

Gearbox for Wire Drawing Machine

Wire drawing demands exceptional precision. As metal passes through progressive dies, the wire drawing gearbox must maintain exact tension control and synchronized capstan speeds. Any variation can lead to wire breakage, surface defects, or dimensional inconsistencies. Our drives ensure smooth, continuous power transmission.

Strict Factory Quality Control

A gearbox failure in a high-speed metal processing line is catastrophic. We test every single unit before it leaves our manufacturing facility. Our strict quality assurance protocol includes:

No-Load & Load Testing

Every metal processing gearbox runs on our test bench to monitor temperature rise, evaluate gear mesh patterns, and verify overall mechanical efficiency before shipping.

Vibration & Noise Analysis

We use advanced sensors to measure operating frequencies. Low noise and minimal vibration guarantee the internal gears are perfectly aligned and bearings are seated flawlessly.

Pressure Leak Testing

Metalworking environments demand perfect seals. We pressure test our ductile iron housings to ensure zero oil leaks and absolute protection against external contaminants like scale or metal dust.
