Slewing Drives comprise a highly robust Slewing Ring Bearing provided with gear teeth , one or several toothed drive elements (Worm Shaft), a worm gear in this case, seal , housing and a hydraulic or an electric drive (Motor). Slewing Drives are designed for grease lubrication.In a Slewing Drive the rolling elements (Steel Balls) carry the load between the inner ring and outer ring of Slewing Ring Bearing. The raceway system’s capacity is determined predominantly by Slewing Ring Bearing design, the depth of hardening and the number and size of the rolling elements. Spacers of Slewing Ring Bearing separate the rolling elements and minimise friction and wear.
Slewing Drives perform extremely well in a variety of applications such as:
-Aerial plateform
-Logging equipment
-Heavy Load Transporter
-Automatic Assembly Line
-Rock Drilling Machine
-Satellite Receiver
-Sraddle Carrier
-Solar Tracker
