FGE Series FGE7 Slewing Drive Gearbox For Satellite Antenna
Satellite antenna slewing drive gearbox
There are several important things you should consider when selecting a slewing drive for a satellite antenna. Single shaft rotary drives are usually used, which are easy to install and have a thin and closed housing. They are ideal for satellite antennas, solar trackers and mining equipment. The rotary drive of satellite antenna shall have low maintenance design and high performance.
Hourglass worm mechanism
Ever power's FGE series rotary drive gearbox combines patented hourglass worm technology with IP55 protection grade housing and housing seal to maximize component protection. They are available in four sizes and four different mounting configurations for single and double shaft rotary drives.
The rotary drive gearbox is usually used for rotating devices that require high rotational torque. The rotary drive is designed to withstand axial and radial loads and can withstand high suspension loads. They are also common solutions for many applications. Since they combine multiple gear teeth, the rotary drive provides high torque while maintaining high accuracy and rotation.
The hourglass worm mechanism is a patented design that maximizes torque output. The mechanism engages five to eleven teeth on the pitch line of the ring gear through hourglass threads. This increased tooth engagement makes the gearbox very robust, durable and energy efficient.
Double row rotary bearing
The double row slewing bearing in the satellite antenna slewing drive gearbox is the best choice for the satellite antenna gearbox. They can meet the application requirements of indoor and outdoor applications. Double row rotary bearing has high load capacity, even in high humidity environment, but it is cheaper than gearbox with single row rotary bearing.
Double row slewing bearings can be used in a variety of applications, including slewing drive gearboxes, turntables and truck mounted cranes. They have flange and four point contact options and can be used with internal or external gearboxes. Other common uses include mobile cars, wind turbines and turntables. They are also widely used in the iron and steel industry for the rotation of turntables.
Rotary drives are commonly used for satellite antennas. The dual shaft design allows a wide range of rotational torque. Internal components are enclosed in cast iron or aluminum housings. They provide a high output rotational torque and a high ratio of input torque to output torque. These bearings are very durable and suitable for various satellite antenna applications.

Application
hzpt slewing drive is a gearbox designed to handle radial or axial loads using high rotational torque. In addition, the slewing ring bearing, at the heart of the drive, enables it to withstand high overhung or moment loads. A descendant of the "worm" screw, slewing drives are present in construction machinery, manufacturing, equipment, and many other applications that require strength and precision.
The physics of the slew drive makes it a versatile solution for many applications. In operation, the slew drive's axial movement, or motion around its axis, interacts to create radial torque. The action occurs by meshing the grooves of the horizontal screw with the teeth of a perpendicular gear. While turning, the worm gear's axial movement transfers magnified torque force to the radial gear. The number of threads on the horizontal screw and the number of gears that interact will determine the speed ratio of the setup.
Slewing drives are available in many configurations depending on the task at hand. These may be single-axis or dual-axis turning in unison.
