Overview
The Transtecno Alu AC range is a modular aluminium gearmotor and speed reducer platform for AC powered machinery. Rather than being one fixed product, it brings together multiple gearbox families, motor options and mounting arrangements so a drive package can be matched to the application.
The range includes helical in-line gearmotors, helical bevel gearmotors, helical parallel gearmotors, worm gearmotors, double reduction worm gearmotors and single stage helical gearmotor options. This gives machinery builders, maintenance teams and industrial buyers a practical path from compact right-angle drives through to higher torque reduction packages.
Gearmotor Families In The Alu AC Range
The Alu AC catalogue covers Transtecno families including CMG helical in-line gearmotors, CMB helical bevel gearmotors, KFT105, FT and ATS helical parallel gearmotors, CM and CMP wormgearmotors, CL and CLP wormgearmotors, CMM double reduction wormgearmotors, PU single stage helical gearmotors and CMPU pre-stage wormgearmotors.
It also includes related AC motor options such as IP66 AC electric motors, AC braked motors, forced-ventilation motors, UL/CSA motor options, TS electric motors and TVR2 motors with smart integrated frequency converters.
Key Features
The core advantage of the Alu AC range is modularity. Gearbox bodies, input kits, output kits, flanges, shafts and motor adapters can be combined to suit a wide spread of machine layouts. This is especially useful when replacing older gearmotors, matching an existing shaft arrangement or building a drive package around limited space.
Key gearbox families use die-cast aluminium housings to keep the drive package compact and lighter than cast iron alternatives. Helical gearmotor families use ground hardened helical gears for efficient and smooth power transmission, while the worm gearmotor families provide compact right-angle speed reduction for applications where layout and ratio are the priority.
Permanent synthetic oil lubrication across supported gearbox ranges helps reduce routine maintenance under normal catalogue conditions.
Common Applications
Transtecno Alu AC gearmotors are used across conveyors, packaging machinery, food processing equipment, agricultural equipment, material handling systems and OEM machinery. The range is especially helpful when an application needs a complete AC motor and gearbox package rather than a separate motor and reducer selected independently.
Worm gearmotor options such as CM, CMP and CMM are a strong fit for compact right-angle applications and higher reduction ratios. Helical in-line, helical bevel and helical parallel options are better suited where efficiency, shaft layout or mounting geometry points away from a standard worm gearbox.
Selection Considerations
Selecting the right Alu AC gearmotor starts with the mechanical requirements: output speed, output torque, ratio, shaft position, mounting position and operating duty. From there, the correct gearbox family can be chosen before the motor frame, motor power, voltage, brake requirements and environmental protection are confirmed.
For replacement projects, photos of the existing unit, nameplate details, shaft measurements, flange dimensions and motor information will speed up selection. If the application is continuous duty, exposed to dust or washdown, heavily loaded or subject to shock loading, those conditions should be included in the enquiry.
