INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The P2.e series is available for the torque range 24.8 kNm to 124 kNm
| Source: SEW-EURODRIVESEW-EURODRIVE GmbH this week announced a major expansion in its U.S
manufacturing capabilities
The company will now locally assemble its P2.e planetary gear units in Wellford, S.C
This means lead times for the product are now as short as six weeks in two-stage and three-stage cataloged ratios and as little as 12 weeks
for non-stocked options.“With U.S.-based assembly of the P2.e line, we’re not just reducing lead times—we’re bringing world-class
planetary gear performance closer to the industries that need it most,” said Austin Burdette, an IG product manager at SEW-EURODRIVE USA
“It’s compact, powerful, and designed for intelligent integration into high-demand systems.”Founded in 1931, SEW-EURODRIVE is a
developer of industrial automation, holding more than 1,000 patents in gearmotors, frequency inverters, servo drives, and Industry 4.0
The company provides engineered systems for industries including automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, mining, steel, logistics,
energy, and more.Save now with early bird discountP2.e series provides compact power for heavy industriesSEW-EURODRIVE said it designed the
P2.e planetary gear unit series to deliver maximum torque in a compact footprint
It has optimized fan-cooling options and new, modular motor inputs that no longer require a pre-stage gearbox.Key features of the series
include:High thermal energy: The series features an advanced enveloping-airflow fan system that provides thermal ratings
If needed, SEW’s engineered external cooling systems can be integrated as well.Durability: A direct bearing design with no outer ring
improves service life and reliability, according to the company
A full complement of cylindrical roller bearings offers excellent load-carrying capacity.Flexibility: The series supports direct motor
mounting, input shaft assemblies, and IEC and NEMA motor adapters
SEW also said it works seamlessly with its modular drive portfolio, including motors, frequency inverters, and control systems.Wide gear
ratio and torque range: i = 15.2 to 332, with torque ratings from 220,000 to 1,100,000 lb.-in
The series is available in two- or three-stage coaxial configurations for fine-tuned speed/torque performance
Right-angle input (X1KP.e) is also possible.Optimized lubrication options: The system is configurable with splash lubrication or external
lubrication systems.SEW said the P2.e planetary gear unit series is now available for heavy-duty applications
This includes bulk material handling, steel and metals, pulp and paper, oil and gas, power generation, and water treatment, as well as
general heavy industries.SEW-EURODRIVE serves North American marketSEW-EURODRIVE has operations in more than 50 countries, 17 manufacturing
plants, 92 assembly facilities, and over 21,000 employees
The Bruchsal, Germany-based company claimed that its customized products can enhance efficiency, productivity, and sustainability
office is in Lyman, S.C.SEW said the new domestic assembly capability enables faster project turnaround and delivers on the family-owned
company’s commitment to supporting the North American market with high-performance drive technology, engineered for reliability,
flexibility, and sustainability.The post SEW-EURODRIVE now assembles planetary gear units in the U.S
