HMEC slew drives are powered with hourglass
worm technology for maximum gear torque and
the smoothest rotation.
Typical slew drive applications include
truck cranes, man lifts, utility equipment,
hydraulic attachments, oil tool equipment,
marine cranes, tire handlers, digger
derricks and automotive lifts, but the slew
drives are used in many other applications
requiring load holding and rotational
capability.
We offer different slew drive models with
moment load capacities of 5,000 to 200,000
ft-lbs.
The standard slew drives are fitted with an
open housing and single self locking
hourglass worm shaft. Once the power source
input is returned to neutral, the worm shaft
will lock the load into position without
requiring any external braking device. If
this is not desirable for the application we
offer overrunning worm shafts that will
allow the load to back drive the input shaft
and motor. We also have dual input slew
drives to double the torque and fully
enclosed housings for industrial
environments where personnel are working
closely to the moving gears.
