4. APPLICATIONS

The transmission elements in reinforced polyamide based technopolymer are an efficient alternative to metal transmission elements and can be used in all applications requiring noise reduction or the avoidance for the need of lubrication. The lightness of the technopolymer transmission elements allows their application in fields requiring a general weight reduction as well. Moreover, the technopolymer’s high resistance to chemical agents limits corrosion in aggressive environment.

The steel gears are often oversized for the effective application they are used for: in this case, the technopolymer gears are an excellent solution and ensure a good mechanical resistance combined with an economical saving.

Application fields for technopolymer gears are various:

• Packaging and conveyor machines
• Industrial cleaning machines
• Glass and ceramic working machines
• Catering equipment
• Typographic industry
• Agricultural machines
• Chemical and pharmaceutical industry
• Household appliances
