Brevini combined gearbox and hydraulics product ranges prove popular

Despite this summer being one of the wettest on records, and the majority of stands being located outside, this year's Hillhead quarrying exhibition pulled-in a record number of visitors. Brevini Power Transmission, exhibiting in partnership with Brevini Fluid Power also proved extremely popular.

Visitors to the stand were able to speak to the company's expert sales team about their range of innovative geared power transmission solutions, offering robust performance, high-reduction ratios and industry leading efficiency levels. Coupled with the hydraulic motors, power packs and valve controls of their sister company, Brevini Fluid Power (formerly S. A. M. Hydraulik), Brevini Power Transmission are able to engineer complete, bespoke solutions for all static and mobile plant equipment used in quarrying, mining and waste and recycling applications.

Many of Brevini's power transmission solutions were on display including their range of planetary gear solutions, which offer up to 98% efficiency per stage, and the unique PIV Posiplan gearbox; which combines the high-efficiency, high-reduction ratios and low weight of planetary gear stages with the strength, capacity and durability of bevel helical gears. Each product is designed to withstand the harsh environments found in quarries and mines and offers superior reduction ratios which are suitable for high-torque, low-speed applications.

Dave Brown, Brevini UK sales manager, commented: ‘Hillhead had its usual fantastic atmosphere this year. The stand proved extremely popular and it was great to publicly display the flexibility and huge product range that our partnership with Brevini Fluid Power offers to customers. The ability to provide for virtually all the power and power transmission needs on one vehicle or machine, from one company, with our level of experience, was completely in-line with customer wishes as they look to reduce the number of suppliers and inventory they handle, and move to more of a supply and engineering partnership with their remaining suppliers. It was great to meet so many people from the industry with the same views and we came away with some extremely promising and valuable leads.’
