RC Series Helical Gearbox

The RC Series Helical Gearbox is a compact, high-efficiency parallel-shaft reducer designed for a wide range of industrial applications requiring reliable torque transmission, smooth operation, and space-saving installation. Featuring precision-ground helical gears and a robust cast iron housing, the RC series delivers exceptional performance in conveyors, mixers, packaging machines, material handling systems, and more.

Engineered for versatility and durability, this gearbox combines low backlash, high torsional stiffness, and quiet running characteristics—making it suitable for both standard industrial environments and noise-sensitive facilities. With multiple mounting options, customizable output configurations, and compatibility with global motor standards (IEC B5/B14), the RC series offers a cost-effective and future-proof drive solution.

    Key benefits include

    High efficiency up to 98% per stage
    Low noise (<65 dB) and minimal vibration
    Modular design for easy integration
    Long service life with minimal maintenance
    Wide ratio range from 3.66:1 to 247:1
    Whether used in food processing, logistics, or heavy manufacturing, the RC Series ensures consistent, dependable power transmission under continuous or cyclic loads.

    Product Advantages

    Internal Structure

    The ZLYJ gearbox operates as a two-stage or three-stage hardened parallel-shaft reducer:
    Input Stage: The motor drives the high-speed input shaft, which connects to the first-stage pinion gear.
    Intermediate Stage(s): Power is transferred through one or two intermediate gear sets, progressively reducing speed and increasing torque.
    Output Stage: The final gear drives the hollow output shaft, which is directly coupled to the extruder screw.
    Critically, the thrust bearing assembly—located inside the output housing—absorbs the massive axial force generated by molten plastic pressure pushing back against the screw.  This integrated design ensures that gear teeth only transmit torque, not axial loads, dramatically improving reliability.
    Lubrication is typically via oil bath or forced circulation, with oil splashed or pumped onto gear meshes and bearings to dissipate heat and reduce wear.

    Applications

    The RC Series Helical Gearbox is widely deployed across diverse industries, including:

    • Material Handling: Belt conveyors, roller lines, palletizers

    • Food & Beverage: Mixers, fillers, cappers, labeling machines

    • Packaging: Carton erectors, wrapping machines, case packers

    • Chemical & Plastics: Agitators, extruder feeders, blenders

    • Textiles & Printing: Winding/unwinding stations, printing rollers

    • Woodworking & Metal Processing: Saw feeds, press drives, coil lines

    • Water Treatment: Sludge scrapers, aerators, screw pumps

    • Its versatility makes it a go-to solution for OEMs seeking a reliable, off-the-shelf reducer for mid-power applications.

    Mounting Position

    RC Series Helical Gearbox (4)
    The RC Series supports universal mounting orientations, offering maximum flexibility in machine design:
    Horizontal Mounting (M1): Output shaft horizontal, base-mounted—most common for conveyors.
    Vertical Mounting – Shaft Down (M2): Output shaft pointing downward—ideal for mixers or agitators.
    Vertical Mounting – Shaft Up (M3): Output shaft upward—used in lifting or vertical screw applications.
    Flange Mounting (B5/B14): Direct motor coupling without base—saves space and reduces alignment complexity.
    Torque Arm Mounting: For applications where the gearbox must resist reaction torque without rigid base fixation.
    Note: For non-standard positions (e.g., inclined), special lubrication arrangements (oil pump or grease fill) may be required to ensure proper gear and bearing lubrication.
